Application

In situ shock pads for synthetic turf systems.

Description

Polytan PolyBase GT combines the benefits of in situ elastic layers with the environmental benefits of a recycled product and a new technology for carbon dioxide utilisation. cardyon® is the name of the product from German polymer manufacturer Covestro which is the first company in the world to successfully use CO2 as a raw material for the manufacture of plastics. Cardyon®, which consists of up to 20% natural carbon dioxide, is used for the permanently elastic binding of the rubber granules. Use of the post-consumer recycled materials (ELT-SBR) also contributes to an improved life-cycle assessment.


Features and benefits:

  • Lifetime over 35 years.
  • SBR rubber granules from 100% post-consumer recycling.
  • Easy reconditioning and reuse of the PolyBase GT for synthetic turf.
  • Polytan PU binding agent saves up to 20% CO2.
  • Strictest soil and groundwater compatibility tests.
  • Perfect player protection thanks to permanent elasticity.
  • Avoidance of surface sealing thanks to water permeability.
