What does 3G mean?

The name 3G pitch simply stands for ‘third generation’ pitch – a new type of artificial, all-weather pitch that is constructed which consists of three synthetic elements; synthetic turf, sand infill and rubber infill.

Ideally suited for playing precision sports such as Football and Rugby, this surface is primarily installed as a solution
for sports training facilities as it can be played upon all year round.

Surface

Tested to International Match Standard, all of our tufted 3G football surfaces are classified to FIFA equivalent, offering exceptional ball control, and maximum comfort underfoot.

They offer a very realistic bounce and ball roll, providing a playing experience that is virtually the same as when playing on grass. This type of pitch has even been used in UEFA Champions League games. In addition to its low- maintenance nature, our Artificial Football Surfaces are environmentally friendly, all-weather surface with eye- catching realism.

What options are available?

For 3G artificial pitches, we offer six options with three different pile heights.
With various different options available depending on your requirements, we can help you to find the surface that gives the best playing experience for your needs.

What makes them play like a grass pitch?

The realistic feel of our pitches is created by using a tufted surface, with a sand and rubber infill. The surface is constructed with a ‘pile’, much the same as a carpet, and then infilled with sand and rubber, which gives the surface a very similar feel to a natural grass pitch.

Maintenance

3G pitches are cheaper to maintain than natural grass pitches, but you should still consider how you will manage the upkeep of the pitch and choose a surface that you can realistically manage to maintain. We can advise you on the type and level of maintenance required for each of our surfaces.
