  • Step-by-Step Installation Overview

    1. Site Preparation

    • Clear the area of debris and vegetation. Level the ground and install a weed barrier.

    2. Base Installation

    • Spread and compact the base material to create a stable foundation.

    3. Turf Placement

    • Roll out the turf and position it to cover the area. Trim the edges as needed.

    4. Seaming and Securing

    • Use adhesive and seaming tape to join turf pieces. Secure the edges with turf nails or staples.

    5. Infill Application

    • Distribute the infill material evenly and brush the turf fibers upright.

    6. Final Inspection

    • Check for any uneven areas, secure loose edges, and ensure the turf looks natural and smooth.
  • Low coefficient of friction, ball bounce rate meets International Cricket Council (ICC) standards

    Friction and Ball Bounce
    Recommendation: Low coefficient of friction, ball bounce rate meets International Cricket Council (ICC) standards

    Reason: The turf of a cricket field needs to ensure that the ball rolls quickly and predictably, while the bounce height is moderate (usually a medium to low bounce rate). Low friction surfaces can reduce ball deviation and are suitable for fast pitches and spin balls.

    Color
    Recommendation: Green (dark green or natural grass color)

    Reason: Cricket fields have traditionally used green turf, which is visually close to natural grass and conforms to the aesthetic habits of players and spectators. Make sure the color is natural and uniform.

    These parameters are based on the professional needs of cricket fields: flatness, low friction, high wear resistance, fast drainage and UV resistance. They meet the international cricket field standards (such as ICC’s requirements for the pitch) and can meet the needs of providing customers with high-quality cricket fields.

    We generally recommend the following specific parameters:

    Grass height: 12 mm (suitable for cricket match pitches)

    Density: 40,000 stitches per square meter

    Material: Polyethylene monofilament fiber, DTEX 10,000

    Back glue: double-layer back glue with drainage holes

    Features: UV-resistant treatment, in line with ICC ball rebound standards

  • Cricket courts are often used outdoors and need to deal with rain.

    Backing and Drainage
    Recommended: Double-layer backing (PP cloth + mesh cloth) + good drainage hole design (water drainage per square meter> 1800mm/h)

    Reason: Cricket courts are often used outdoors and need to deal with rain. An efficient drainage system quickly removes accumulated water, keeping the field dry and ensuring uninterrupted play. Double-layer adhesive enhances the stability and durability of the turf and prevents fiber shedding.

    UV Resistance and Weatherability
    Recommendation: UV-resistant treatment, suitable for high temperature and strong sunlight environments

    Reason: Cricket fields are mostly outdoor, especially in areas with strong sunlight (such as Australia, India, etc., Radford Ezynet may be aimed at similar markets). UV-resistant treatment can extend the life of the turf (more than 6-8 years) and prevent fading or fiber aging.

  • High-density turf can provide better wear resistance and stability

    Recommended: 30,000-50,000 stitches per square meter (high density)

    Reason: High-density turf can provide better wear resistance and stability, suitable for high-intensity use of cricket fields (players running, ball impact). This is especially important for outdoor fields because they need to resist frequent use and weather effects.

    Yarn Material
    Recommended: Polyethylene (PE) or Polypropylene (PP) monofilament

    Reason: Polyethylene fiber is soft and durable, suitable for cricket courts, providing good foot feel and ball rolling performance. Monofilament fiber (monofilament) is more wear-resistant than fibrillated fiber (fibrillated), and can keep the surface flat, suitable for the precision requirements of cricket games.

    Artificial grass Yarn
    DTEX (yarn thickness)
    Recommended: 8,000-12,000 DTEX

    Reason: Medium-high DTEX values ​​ensure the strength and durability of turf fibers, which can withstand high impact forces in cricket (such as fast rolling of the ball and players’ trampling). At the same time, moderate thickness keeps the surface smooth and does not affect the speed of the ball.

  • ashkent International School chooses Non-Infill Turf System

    The prestigious Tashkent American School, has chosen HATKO artificial turf for its 5000m2 sports field. The sports field has been constructed with the TRINIDAD Non-Infill Turf System to provide the best solution for the school.

    The non-infill system is ideal for school sports fields since the schools would like to avoid children putting the rubber granules in their mouths.Short pile height artificial grass with a high stitch rate has been used for this non-infill system with a prefabricated shock pad. Some silica sand has also been applied to provide added stability.

    HATKO engineers have built an innovative approach to non-infill:“We don’t just tuft, we craft the quality and intelligently design high-performance non-filled sport systems “. The combination of the curly and straight monofilament with our state of the art Two-Pile-Height TuftingTechnology provides playing characteristics and quality that closely replicate the performance of natural turf pitches.

    ArtificialTurf Systems are generally low maintenance systems. Non-infill systems require even less time and simple maintenance. This makes the TRINIDAD Non-Infill system even more suitable for schools.

    You can watch the video below, to get the full insight into the installation of this system.

  • Roll Out the Artificial Grass

    Now comes the exciting part—laying out your artificial grass.

    1. Roll Out the Grass: Start by rolling out the artificial grass over the underlay. Be sure to position it so that the fibres all face the same direction for a consistent look.
    2. Let It Rest: Allow the grass to settle for a few hours. This helps the fibres to stand up and reduces the chance of wrinkles.
    3. Trim to Size: Use your tape measure and Stanley knife to trim the grass to fit the space exactly. Be sure to leave a small gap (about 1 cm) around the edges for expansion in warm weather.
  • Different Types of Grass Blades


    Blade shape is part of what makes artificial grass look natural. Different grass blades allow the grass to spring back quicker, absorb shine and remain cooler on warmer days. Here at Tauro Turf we offer a selection of grass blade shapes teamed with different colours and thatches to satisfy every customer. All of our grasses are designed in-house to suit the Western Australian climate making our range WA’s most realistic artificial grass.

    Jumbuck 35mm W-Shape Grass Blades
    W-shape blades
    Our W-shape grass blades are the most common grass that we stock in our showroom. This is because W-shape blades do not retain the same amount of heat as other grass blade shapes making it perfect for the WA climate. Grasses in the Tauro Turf range that have W-shape blades are Prima-Natural 35mm, Ultra-Natural 35mm and Jumbuck 35mm.
