Ecocept is a seamlessly paved base layer made from recycled plastics, including artificial grass.
Paved in-situ, Ecocept provides numerous benefits for the construction and performance of an artificial grass pitch.
Bound, multi-functional construction element for artificial grass which provides improved sports performance values, enhanced player safety characteristics, unique player-surface and ball-surface interaction values, omni-directional water management, irrigation and cooling functionality, surface evenness, surface tolerances and civil engineering benefits.
Features and benefits:
- 100% recycled plastics.
- One full-size Ecocept pitch installation saves up to 190 tonnes of carbon emissions.
- Up to 300 tonnes of material are diverted from landfill for a new Ecocept field.
- End of life artificial grass can also be used in the Ecocept formula, making an old pitch par of a new pitch.
- It takes 40 end of life AGP’s to make one full size Ecocept layer.
- £30,000 = the potential waste to landfill cost that can be saved when Ecocept is used in a full-size install.
- Solution for contaminated, brownfield sites and sites with poor quality ground conditions.
- Ecocept meets sports governing body and international standards, including FIFA, World Rugby, RFL, FIH, GAA, ESTO, DIN and ISO.
- Optimum balance between safety for head impact criteria and energy restitution.
- Artificial grass systems that use Ecocept demonstrate enhanced and more.
- Consistent performance values over time.
