Breaking new ground

Article Abstract:

Sythetic surfaces develop in response to technological advances and specification demands. Technical development has largely affected sand-filled turfs. Innovations include the use of heavier and coated fibres to reduce wear and friction burns and use of coarser graded sand to reduce packing. Since 1990 the International Amateur Athletics Assocation, the New Winterbottom Report, the Sports Council and Hockey Association have produced new specifications for synthetic surfaces. British Standard 7044 Part four covers multi-sports use.
