Tough turf that stands up to tough play and is the closest thing to a well-maintained natural grass field.
Kiefer USA are experts at the design and installation of football field turf. Artificial football turf has become a safe, economical, durable, and popular choice for forward-thinking football organizations. An artificial football field will not only look good, it will perform and be just as safe as a natural grass field without the added maintenance costs.
Football requires a playing field that offers an excellent biomechanical response prioritizing player-surface interaction. By following requirements set by the regulations, it is essential to obtain optimum shock absorption that minimizes the risk of injury, particularly impacts to the head, and good vertical deformation or stability. Therefore, sand and rubber granule fillers should be included in the artificial turf. The rubber granule fillers facilitate player traction, while minimizing the risk of injury. Incorporating an elastic base layer under the turf helps to achieve these conditions, as well as improving the system’s durability. To guarantee sports function, a good artificial turf system will be resistant and highly durable over time due to UV protection. In addition, artificial turf with firm, upright blades will enhance resistance.

"At St. Olaf we have two prime goals for our field project; consistent conditions, every practice and every game and the safest conditions practical. The FTS base, turf, and fill contribute to both. The FTS pad along with Eco-fill addresses our remaining safety concern. Football is always going to have player on player collisions and rules can help, but rules can't help ground strikes. We want to be able to say that everything practical for mitigation of ground strikes has been done, and with the FTS pad in place we can say that."
"Our top priority at White Bear Lake Area High School as we looked at different options for the installation of synthetic turf systems on our high school stadium field was the safety of our students during their practices and competition. Through discussions with our coaches, participants, and athletic trainer, it is clear that the FTS pad has helped create that safe playing environment!"
"The addition of the turf field in our stadium is a game changer! From increased student engagement during physical education class to the quality of practice during extra curricular activities, the new turf puts St. Charles North ahead of the game. For our physical education classes, athletics and band to have consistent practices and a playing surface is invaluable. I am certain that the turf has brought about an increase of game play and interest to our Football and Boys Soccer programs. I'm excited to see what it does for our Girls Soccer and Lacrosse programs. The turf is a rallying point for all programs SCN!"
"The turf that was installed provides an excellent playing surface. It is easy to maintain and the players enjoy playing on it. We no longer have to worry about muddy conditions or spending money to paint the field each week."
Mondoturf played a key role in our success in 2009. The number and seriousness of turf-related injuries has been significantly reduced, and our student-athletes' muscles recover much more quickly than when they played on other surfaces. We also have better practices early in the week because our athletes' legs stay fresher even after a full week of practice and a weekend game. In addition, since we installed Mondoturf, our recruiting has improved. The overall beauty of the turf attracts a lot of attention from our prospects - much more than the natural grass surface we previously had.
