Color Control: Preserve the Integrity of Your Vivid Field

A synthetic turf field is an investment in your team.  An artificial grass system allows athletes to play longer and is engineered to offer specific safety benefits while withstanding heavy use and all types of weather.  However, not all synthetic turf is created equal.  High use and heavy UV exposure can cause lower quality products to degrade over time, causing breaking and splitting of the “grass” fibers, fading color, reduced strength, and overall poor performance.  Act Global turf is crafted to overcome these deficiencies with maximum UV protection, proven and tested to defy the hottest and driest climates in the world.

With installations covering six continents and more than 80 countries across the world, Act Global turf has been exposed to climates with the highest UV concentrations.  In addition to the extensive number of references, over 100 laboratory tests have proven the performance of Act Global synthetic turf to exceed industry standards.  In a climate test designed to assess tensile strength, Act Global turf underwent artificial weathering and 3,000 hours of UVA/UVB exposure.  UVB, a harsher ray than UVA, is not required for industry testing.  The results revealed both the monofilament and SPC fibers were almost a 100% more resilient in color and tensile retention-exceeding industry standards for FIFA, IRB, STC, FIH, and EN 15330-1.  The fibers also had less color change than what is required by the FIFA standard.  Seven popular yarns colors in addition to green have passed climate testing to achieve lasting durability, performance and color stability in all climates.

These tests prove that in addition to the functional and safety benefits of Act Global synthetic turf, you can be assured that our artificial grass will remain vibrant and colorful for the lifetime of the field.  Act Global turf is engineered with UV protection to ensure that every line marking, logo, and end zone remains vivid and genuine.
