According to the recent questions and feedback from many customers, we asked whether we need to fill EPDM rubber particles or quartz sand when installing football artificial turf. In fact, this situation is very common. Depending on the needs of each customer, both options have certain advantages.
First of all, we need to know what type of pellets to fill: generally TPE filled pellets and EPDM rubber. Both TPE and EPDM are environmentally friendly particles, which have many advantages such as wear resistance, shock absorption, wear resistance, and weather resistance. Even in very harsh outdoor environments, they can also have good stability and meet international unified standards.
The advantage of filling artificial turf is that it can be used directly without filling any substances, which can reduce a lot of maintenance work time and cost. The whole paving is very convenient, but of course the cost will be relatively high. The lawn it uses is straight and curved mixed grass. It can make the lawn of the football field look fuller, is wear-resistant and environmentally friendly, and can also add a layer of shock-absorbing pads to protect the joints of athletes when used. It will be a very popular product in the future market.
In fact, there are a lot of filled lawns currently on the market. When you fill in a suitable leveling filler, the grass of the entire stadium will look straight and full of elasticity. Letting players get injured is very conducive to training and competition. Of course, how to make the filled lawn requires regular maintenance and replacement of TPE and EPDM particles. A flat filled artificial turf is in line with the standard of regular football 5-a-side, 7-a-side, and 11-a-side fields.
Therefore, depending on the needs of customers, filling and non-filling have their own advantages. At present, our customers are very relieved of the football turf produced by our factory.
