Sports & Landscape installs the first emission-neutral field on the entire peninsula
The Torredembarra municipal soccer field, in Tarragona, has become the first artificial turf soccer field with CO2 neutral certification on the entire peninsula. This objective has been achieved by Sports & Landscape with the help of our partner Polytan, manufacturer of a revolutionary ecological carpet, made with sugar cane.
This is the Polytan Ligaturf Cross 240 GT Zero model, which integrates green technology: it has 65% bioplastic from sugar cane and is the first artificial turf to obtain neutral emissions certification.
The works, which have been carried out in four weeks, have consisted of the disassembly of the sports equipment and the removal of the old grass. Subsequently, the planimetry has been checked and the elastic base has been installed, to later extend the new ecological artificial turf with sand ballasting. We have also dealt with the installation of sports equipment, which has been reviewed to see what was usable and has been replaced by new elements in some cases.
With an area of 7,000 square metres, the new Torredembarra municipal field has already passed the corresponding tests based on the UNE EN 15330-1 standard, which guarantees compliance with the strictest quality, performance and safety standards.
