  • What About VivaTurf?

    VivaTurf has experience supplying artificial turf systems for sports projects and international markets, including non-infill applications. When considering a VivaTurf non-infill system, the most useful approach is not simply to ask for a generic “foundation standard.” Instead, ask the supplier for the installation specification for the exact turf model and application. This should clarify: For a professional…

  • Asphalt Base: What Should Be Checked?

    For asphalt foundations, contractors should pay particular attention to: A high-quality asphalt surface can provide a suitable foundation for artificial turf, but the asphalt must be properly compacted and sufficiently stable before turf installation. Again, a generic “95% compaction” figure should not replace the project’s engineering specification and testing requirements. 8. Flatness Is One of the…

  • Install the Aggregate Sub-Base

    A graded aggregate layer is commonly used above the compacted subgrade. Its functions include: Typical aggregate thicknesses may fall within approximately 150–200 mm, but actual thickness should be calculated according to: The aggregate should be placed in controlled lifts and compacted appropriately rather than simply dumped and rolled once. 5. Concrete vs. Asphalt Base Two common…

  • Prepare and Compact the Subgrade

    The first layer is the natural soil or engineered fill. Before installing the aggregate layer, contractors should address: The subgrade is then compacted using appropriate equipment. A commonly encountered project specification may require a compaction level around 93% or higher, but this should not be treated as a universal requirement. The appropriate target depends on the…

  • Why Is the Base So Important for Non-Infill Artificial Turf?

    Artificial turf follows the geometry of the surface underneath it. If the foundation is poorly prepared, problems can eventually appear on the finished turf surface. Uneven base → uneven turf Local depressions or high spots can become visible through the turf, producing: Settlement → wrinkles and seam problems If the subgrade or aggregate layer is…

  • How Should the Base Be Prepared for Non-Infill Artificial Turf?

    The base is one of the most important factors determining the long-term performance of non-infill artificial turf. A properly designed foundation helps control surface flatness, drainage, dimensional stability, seam performance, and the risk of wrinkles or localized settlement. Because non-infill turf does not rely on loose sand or rubber infill to help stabilize the surface, the quality…

  • VivaTurf Non-Infill Artificial Turf: Choosing the System, Not Just the Grass Height

    For projects evaluating non-infill artificial turf, VivaTurf can be included among the manufacturers worth evaluating, particularly when the project requires a combination of non-infill technology, product specifications and international testing experience. Rather than recommending one universal pile height, VivaTurf’s non-infill solutions can be selected according to the application—for example, landscaping, residential gardens, children’s areas or sports facilities—with…

  • How to Specify Non-Infill Turf More Professionally

    Instead of asking a supplier: “How many millimeters is your artificial grass?” A better procurement specification is: Application → pile height → tuft density → yarn Dtex/profile → backing → drainage → cushion → base → testing For example, a residential project could request: 30 mm non-infill landscape turf + specified tuft density + specified…

  • Turf Thickness Specification Checklist Before Comparing Products

    A gym turf specification checklist turns a stack of quotes into comparable data. Record the same fields, in the same units, for every product before you rank them. Without that discipline, comparing a pile height from one supplier against a total figure from another produces a false conclusion. Dimensions, inclusions, and measurement conditions to record…

  • Attached Padding vs. Separate Underlay: Avoiding Double-Counting in Gym Turf Thickness

    Padding reaches the floor in one of two places: inside the product as delivered, or added on site. A turf factory’s stated gym turf thickness may or may not already contain the pad, and that single unknown is where most height errors start. When factory-attached padding is already inside the overall thickness If the overall…
