What is a Sand Filled Pitch?

A sand filled pitch is a type of sports surface which could be used for numerous sporting activities. Sand-filled pitches have a layer of silica infill installed at the base of the synthetic grass fibres. The sand is used to help keep the fibres upright, allowing better performance characteristics for the facility. Sand-filled pitches are durable, long lasting facilities and can be installed for a range of sports activities.

Although maintenance is required, sand-filled pitches are porous which means that water can drain through easily; this means that the field will not become waterlogged. For more information on what a sand-filled pitch is, please complete the enquiry form presented on this page and we will get back to you as quickly as possible.

Maintaining 2G Pitches Near Me

Over time, it's expected that your synthetic grass sports surface will need some sort of repairs to be carried out, this may be due to some joints coming apart due to constant use. If your 2G artificial pitch surface happens to become vandalised, simple repairs may be done to fix the damages. Regular sand-filled astroturf maintenance is needed, especially if you want to reduce damages and cost of repairs.

The same sort of work can be carried out during sand-dressed pitch maintenance as these two specifications are quite similar. By carrying out frequent inspections of your surfacing, you will be able to notice any damages early on, therefore helping to reduce the risk of major repairs. Frequent infill level checks are also necessary to make certain that they are topped up the right amount without being compacted deep into the fibres.

If you need additional infill, please have a look at this page http://www.syntheticturfpitchmaintenance.co.uk/reactive/additional-infill/ One great benefit of sand-filled astroturf is that it has a porous membrane, allowing water to pass through easily; if the infill level is incorrect drainage may begin to fail and the compacted sand infill may become dirty, leading to contamination and waterlogging on the sports field closest to you and your surrounding area.

If your local artificial grass surfacing does become contaminated it is important to have a sand-filled pitch rejuvenation carried out by specialists as soon as possible in order to prevent flooding. Contamination may be avoided by regular check-ups and cleaning the surfacing (for example brushing and deep cleaning) before litter, leaves and other natural matter starts to decay.

Throughout the years extra sand infill will be required once the surface has been installed; the amount of infill will vary depending on how often the surface gets used – the more often the field gets played on, the more infill will be removed. The astroturf infill will need to be topped up at least once every 1-2 years should you want to extend the lifespan and maintain the original accreditations.
