The natural-grass-like touch of a non-infill system depends not only on the initial product design, but also on long-term stability. Vivaturf supports this through four structural controls:

First, the surface does not rely on loose infill, so there is no infill migration, compaction, or uneven particle buildup.

Second, the straight-and-curled fiber system helps maintain vertical stability after repeated use. The fiber upright retention can reach ≥95% after 10,000 simulated traffic cycles, helping the surface preserve consistent friction and ball response.

Third, the closed-cell shockpad helps maintain rebound consistency because it is designed to resist moisture absorption and compression fatigue.

Fourth, the backing system and thermal bonding process help reduce the risk of delamination, aging, and structural looseness that could affect field response over time.

Standardized Installation Matters

Even a high-performance turf system needs accurate installation to achieve natural-grass-like ball behavior. Vivaturf recommends strict base preparation and field testing.

The base flatness should be controlled within ≤2 mm over 3 m, helping prevent ball-roll deviation. Base strength should reach C25 or above, with moisture-control treatment where required. Seam bonding strength should reach ≥3.0 MPa, and seam areas should be calibrated so friction and ball response remain consistent with the main field.

Before handover, the field should be tested for ball rebound, ball roll, friction, shock absorption, vertical deformation, and surface uniformity. This helps ensure the installed field performs as designed, not just in laboratory conditions but also in real use.
