The Ecocept base is made from recycled rubber (old car tyres) and end of life plastic. These components are ground down and refined into pellets which are then processed into an innovative porous pavement. Essentially, TigerTurf’s Ecocept turns landfill into high-performance sports bases used under synthetic turf sports playing surfaces.

Specifications

Ecocept turns landfill into high performance sports bases:
TigerTurf ECOCEPTTM is an innovative new type of porous pavement specifically developed by our parent company, TenCate Grass to be used under synthetic turf sports playing surfaces. It integrates seamlessly with TigerTurf’s synthetic turf products enhancing biomechanical properties, improving drainage and reducing traditional base construction techniques reducing cost and environmental impact. An Ecocept sports field will have:

  • Robust support for the top turf layer.
  • A high-spec shock pad for player protection.
  • Faster, simpler, more efficient construction.
  • An efficient drainage system.

Ecocept gives you a great all-weather playing surface:
Ecocept™ has been especially designed to withstand the hardest pounding, but still be kind on players. Its shock absorbency can be tailored
to meet any sporting requirements, including FIFA and IRB standards. At the same time it is easy on the environment.

  • 75 tonnes of plastic waste diverted from landfill.
  • 70 tonnes of rubber waste diverted from landfill.
  • 112.5 tonnes of CO2 saved over traditional build
    * Based on a typical football field of 8,000m2

- Made in New Zealand
We’re one of the largest synthetic turf manufacturers in the world, but we started in Auckland, New Zealand in 1981. We still make almost all of our products in our Auckland factory, with materials manufactured by our parent company, TenCate Grass. Local manufacturing means that we can ensure quality is maintained throughout the process.

- Experience and Expertise
You want to make sure the company you choose to work with knows what they're doing. We've been in the synthetic turf industry for almost 40 years, and have also been instrumental in developing the products and systems that result in world class, top performing surfaces. We design, manufacture, install and maintain our surfaces, applying the innovation and expertise we've gained over the years into every project - large or small.

- Accreditations and Memberships
Because of the quality, performance and realistic nature of TigerTurf’s artificial grass, TigerTurf is recommended for high level training and competition. Many of our artificial grass turfs have been approved and certified by world sporting bodies, including FIFA, World Rugby, FIH, and ITF. It's also ISO 9001 accredited.

- Quality and Innovation
We control the quality and performance of every synthetic turf system we create, in our own factory, at every step of the production process. We control where and how our yarns are extruded. We control which products go into our fibres. We develop and manufacture our own backing cloths. We develop, manufacture and build the performance bases that we lay our turf systems over. And finally, we can recycle our old, end-of-life products into new, start-of-life products.
