Corporate Social Responsibility in the synthetic turf industry

The synthetic turf industry faces several sustainability challenges. These challenges come from different directions. On the one hand, there are the EU targets for carbon reduction, circularity, and care for people and regions. Then there is the ECHA ban on microplastics which affects the artificial grass system itself. In addition, there is a societal shift. People these days are increasingly taking sustainability into account when adopting a product.

All of these challenges require a self-regulating business model and activities that help us meet them in a responsible way: Corporate Social Responsibility. Domo® Sports Grass has developed a CSR policy that focuses on the environmental challenges we have identified:

  1. Realise carbon reduction
  2. Create a circular economy
  3. Caring for people 
  4. Make ECHA-certified products

We seek to achieve these focus points by offering an eco-friendly products range, obtaining sustainable certifications and join networks

Why is Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) important?

It is well known that industry in general has a major impact on the environment. On the other hand, it has the greatest capacity to minimise its negative impact. Within the artificial turf industry, companies are mainly concerned with the perception of the synthetic turf product, as it is made of plastic. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) therefore plays an important role in the synthetic grass industry. A good CSR strategy can guide companies in their operations and product development to always make the most sustainable choices. Innovation is also an important factor. We see that the future of synthetic turf for sports is already very promising. The industry's commitment to sustainability, combined with the EU Green Deal and the upcoming ECHA ban on microplastics, will ultimately lead to better and more sustainable sports facilities for the environment, players and clubs.
