PROVIDING A MEASURABLE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Shaw Sports Turf has reclaimed over 5,500 tons (11,00,000 lbs.) of artificial turf that would have otherwise gone to a landfill. One field of turf represents about 20 tons of plastic material. According to Waste Management, one ton of recycled plastic saves 13.6 gallons of oil. Therefore, one recycled field saves 272 gallons of oil.
OFFERING NATURAL INFILLS THAT ARE ABLE TO MEET YOUR NEEDS
Shaw Sports Turf is proud to offer a variety of natural, sustainably sourced infill products to provide optimal Playability and premium value at all levels of the game.
Each of these natural infills satisfies a different need, but they all carry the same great performance qualities you have come to expect from Shaw Sports Turf.
PURSUING FULLY-CERTIFIED, SUSTAINABLE TURF SYSTEMS
Legion, Momentum and Powerblade Shaw Sports Turf product lines are now certified, and when combined with NXTPlay pad and a natural infill, result in a fully-certified turf system.
