New Multi-Sport Surface.
Geelong College now has a brilliant new full-size hockey pitch with a TigerTurf Evo Pro multi-sport surface. It also has 12 tennis courts marked in bright white lines within the hockey pitch.

Unbeatable Durability Of TigerTurf Synthetic Turfs.
The previous TigerTurf field was installed in 1988, having given many years of consistent performance at Geelong College. We are proud of the good service our clients enjoy in using our sports turfs. This well-loved surface deserved a round of applause on its own merits as it was lifted.

TigerTurf Evo Pro.
TigerTurf’s Evo Pro is manufactured from our most advanced texturised monofilament fibres making it our premium multi-sport surface for schools and clubs. It is a sand dressed system that is deal for hockey, tennis and multi-sports. For hockey, it can be played on either wet or dry and is certified FIH National. It has an ITF fast pace rating and is designed to meet the highest level of performance standards in both hockey and tennis.

Superb Playing Surface:

TigerTurf Evo Pro offers schools multisport high performance.
The college requested another of our durable technical sports turfs, so we recommended TigerTurf Evo Pro, a superb surface for both hockey and tennis as well as other ball sport.

The College’s selection team visited the Evo Pro pitch TigerTurf had installed at Melbourne Grammar three years earlie. They were impressed with the look and performance of the Evo Pro system, deciding it was perfect for their hockey and tennis facility.

We installed a new rubber pad beneath the surface to absorb impact for the benefit of players’ and to improve the playing performance and durability of this outstanding synthetic turf system.

Evo Pro is a superb playing surface for hockey, tennis and cricket.
TigerTurf manufactures Evo Pro from the most durable texturised monofilament yarn on the market to produce a high performance multi-sport surface.

Along with TigerTurf WETT Pro, this surface offers the longest playing-life of any synthetic turf on the market.  The non-friction turf surface of Evo Pro allows players to extend themselves in skilful manoeuvres and achieve positive results more consistently.

As a dressed surface, TigerTurf Evo Pro requires no irrigation, good news in view of the dry Victorian summers. The completed multi-sport facility looks fantastic, and will encourage students to take part in range of sports. The sports teams will enjoy some exciting games played on this pitch.

- 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.
