Correct infill depth is essential—it directly impacts the ball’s performance and player traction. Silica sand provides stability to the turf system by weighing down the blades and supporting their upright posture. The sand is mechanically spread in uniform layers, typically as the bottom infill layer, and is carefully distributed between the synthetic grass fibers.

Rubber Infill Application

The next layer involves rubber granules, which provide cushioning and energy restitution. This layer is applied over the silica sand using a mechanically operated spreader. After each layer, the turf is brushed and groomed to avoid trapping any fibers, ensure infill is evenly distributed.

Brushing continues until the desired infill level and blade recovery are achieved to remain upright. This process creates a game-ready pitch with excellent durability and playing characteristics.

Final Touches and Cleanup

Once all infill is applied and groomed, the field is cleaned and prepped for handover. This includes removing construction debris, performing a final brushing, and conducting a visual inspection. A well-installed field will appear smooth, uniform, and ready for use.
