OUR GRASS RACING SYSTEM |
|||
|
Through dedicated laboratory research and extensive field testing, Grassman has produced the all-weather Racing System. This is a unique synthetic surface made from a modular, energy absorbing rubber underlay, covered by a 40mm or 70mm, double locked, tufted, polypropylene turf and infilled with rounded sand and rubber granules. It is an excellent and demonstrably successful surface for minimising injuries and offers the racing industry a softer, more durable surface Stringent testing by external organisations and individuals has led to our product being widely acclaimed. |

The German Standard (DIN 18035 Sports Grounds - Synthetic Surfacings) found significant increases in Force Reduction in direct relation to the rubber infill. |
|||
|
The
American Standard Test Method (ASTM 355-78) found in their Severity Index
of assessing surface safety that the inclusion of rubber led to significant
increase in Safe Fall height (cushioning). |

Dr. John Dunlop, School of Physics, University of NSW, said in a study that the rubber infill 'improves the shock absorption performance' 'products are at the upper levels or above specified using DIN 18035' and 'surface is similar to ... natural turf.' |
