Careful maintenance is half the battle!

Outdoor sports surfaces – whether running tracks, tennis courts, hockey or football pitches – are characterised by their high durability, amongst other features. Atmospheric conditions, UV rays, dust and surface dirt, leaves and drifting seeds are all factors that can play havoc with even the most durable surface over a long period of time. Regular cleaning will substantially lengthen the lifespan of a sports surface while preserving the value and the functional properties of sports facilities over the long term at the lowest possible cost. As your service partner, Polytan provides expert personnel, special equipment and guidance to help you with this task. A maintenance contract is the best way of guaranteeing that a sports facility functions smoothly and retains its value.

The right care for synthetic turf

Routine visual inspections and the immediate removal of surface dirt or other impurities are among the duties of any groundsman. 

When it comes to regular maintenance, Polytan recommends the Polytan ACS unit to its customers, which is used for brushing the synthetic turf and for levelling and loosening the infill. As a service provider, Polytan offers a variety of wet and dry cleaning machines for intensive care. 

The right care for synthetic surfaces

Running tracks become contaminated over time as a result of various environmental factors, with the surface becoming weather-beaten, mossy or encrusted for example. A high-pressure wet cleaner can be used to remove these impurities from the surface and restore it to a fully functioning sports track.
