High-Performance Artificial Grass for Modern Hockey Pitches
The game of field hockey has evolved significantly over the past few decades. Today’s players are faster, more technically skilled, and better trained than ever before. As a result, the demands placed on the hockey pitch surface have increased dramatically.
To support this modern style of play, the quality of the artificial turf is critical. The surface must provide:
-
✅ Excellent grip for rapid acceleration and quick directional changes
-
✅ Predictable ball behavior with consistent bounce and roll
-
✅ A level, even surface to reduce injury risk and support technical precision
Whether it's for competitive matches or high-intensity training, your players need a pitch that performs at the highest level in all conditions.

Frequently asked questions
Why is there water on a hockey pitch?
It is the surface of choice for professional hockey players and competitions. The presence of water reduces friction, increasing the speed and consistency of ball movement, resulting in a smooth and fast game.
Do water based hockey pitches freeze?
Basically, our artificial grass products are frost-resistant. The fibres we use are made of polyethylene (PE), which is well frost-resistant. Older fibre types such as polypropylene (PP) and polyamide (PA) are more sensitive to frost, though. Dry frost is not a problem for artificial hockey pitches and their playability. In principle, a frozen artificial turf pitch is slightly harder, but at least smoother than a natural grass pitch. Frost combined with high humidity and/or precipitation can cause problems for the playability of artificial grass pitches (frost, hoarfrost, snow). If this is the case, we advise against playing on it in function of the preservation of your hockey pitch and safety for the players.
How do you clean a hockey field?
First, it is important to use the hockey surface correctly. This means:
- Walk on the pitch with appropriate and clean footwear
- Do not allow chewing gum or other food on the pitch
- Do not smoke on the fields
- No vehicles are allowed on the pitch, expect for specific maintenance
Following these points above will make cleaning less intensive and more efficient. Maintenance activities are:
- Removing stains, canteen litter and organic waste
- Brushing the surface to prevent formation of algae and bacteria
- Checking carpet and seams
- Keep the surrounding area neat and tidy
Of course, there are even more extensive maintenance tasks to be carried out by a maintenance team. Do you need a partner for this? Feel free to contact us for more information on our services.
