THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR SPORTS GROUND
1. Fitting onto base
Recheck the dimension of your field and make sure it is accordant with the drawing .Check the base and make sure it's leveling, hard and clean. Remove any large stones or bricks etc. Apply 5mm - 1mm gravel or sharp sand if fine base is not available.
2. Putting rolls
Position rolls along one side of the installation area, roll out the turf to the desired length and trim. It is better to leave a little extra length while you trim and position the turf. Check if the roll size and the roll numbers are conformed to the drawings. Make sure the accessories including glue join tape, are enough for your installation.
3．Cutting and rimming Edges
Our surfaces can be joined with our synthetic special glue and joint tape.
When our turf is manufactured, an extra couple of inches of backing material remains along the edge of the turf. This extension runs the length of the turf roll on both sides after the last stitching row of yarn. Before you can seam tow pieces of turf together you must remove the extra backing material with knife.
4. Position the joint tape
You should ensure the pile is running in the same direction. Trim approx 2-3cm from each edge cutting between rolls. Unroll the join tape along the join line on the base ensuring equal tape on each section.
5. Joint and surface
Apply the synthetic turf special glue along each edge of the artificial turf backing approx 4cm into the back of the surface in two lines. Fold over one side of the artificial grass onto the joint tape. Then start to fold over another side but ensuring no tufts of grass are crushed under the joint line and keeping the joint tight together. Once completed it is a good idea to lay bricks along the joint.
6. Infill
Brooming sand into the root of synthetic grass is a necessary step in the installation procedure. The sand infill will help to add the weight of turf enough to make it stable; and the other function is to help grass stand up. Continue brushing the sand until the blades are standing up and you see no visible sand on the surface. For sports field, rubber granule infill is necessary for protecting skin when play tumble.
