Allenton Bowling Club find the secret to the perfect bowling green in the details. “We are very happy with the final result. The green is faster than we expected it to be and plays very well,” said David Hickman, president of the Allenton Bowling Club. The club is proud of its world-class TigerTurf green, and so are we.

  • Turf: Bowls
  • Date Project Completed: March 2018
  • Area: 35m x 35m
  • Surface: TigerTurf Greenweave
  • Base: Aggregate rock base with TigerBond

This true all-weather surface plays consistently in all conditions
The GreenWeave bowling surface installed for the Allenton Bowls Club is a superb, true playing surface in all conditions. The shock pad beneath the surface provides extra comfort underfoot that players appreciate.

A quality surface and professional service every time
The members of the Allenton Bowls Club were unhappy with the existing woven surface, which had not performed satisfactorily for some time. The committee, determined to find the best surface for their club, talked to several suppliers before selecting TigerTurf, the company with the professional qualities they could trust to install their preferred high-performance bowl surface.

TigerTurf experience and skills achieve the perfect bowl green
“May I express my appreciation for your liaison with the club, and myself in particular, during this project. I have been very happy with the process and its implementation,” says David Hickman.

The secret is in the detail – from the base to the top layer

Our construction team excavated the top 50mm of the existing base, replacing this with our TigerBond system. This product stabilises the base construction while maintaining porosity to achieve a consistent and true bowling surface with good speed.

After installing a new plinth and the underlay, the Greenweave surface was carefully laid, with great attention to detail and finish.

Team TigerTurf and Allenton Club produced a winning surface
To the delight of the players the green was playing 16.5 seconds from the day one. “We were impressed with the professionalism and competence of all the workers, who were, without exception, courteous and friendly.

All the club members who spoke to the TigerTurf team have commented favourably about them. They are a credit to your company.”

And more. With our decades of experience, we’ll find a solution that is high quality and high performance, without being high maintenance

- 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.
