Synthetic grass has become the ideal solution for sports fields that require high performance in any season of the year, that does not lose functionality and aesthetics due to changes in the weather, and that does not require routine maintenance at such short intervals. When you decide to build your synthetic lawn field, you need to calculate the amount of material that will be used. In this post, we explore how to calculate the amount of synthetic grass needed for your field.
Assess the Area of Your Field.
The first and most important step in planning the installation of your synthetic grass field is to measure the area where it will be installed. Use a tape measure to determine the length and width of the field in meters, so by multiplying these two values you will find the square meters of your area. If the field is not rectangular, divide it into smaller sections and measure each one individually. Write down all measurements accurately, as this will serve as a basis for calculating the amount of grass needed.
Valuable information is to always consider the multiplicity of synthetic grass rolls, where at Sportlink they are 3,90 meters. This means that the width or length of the field, depending on the decision on how to carry out the installation, must be rounded up to the number of rolls. As an example, a 26 x 46m football field, where the rollers would be installed from side to side, would require 12 3,90m rollers, which represents 46,80m, which multiplied by 26m, gives 1.216 square meters.
Consider the Specific Needs of Your Project.
Did you know that Sportlink can deliver a personalized project to you? Whether it's a colored indentation, white markings, your team's name, two-color fields. So, in addition to measuring the field area, it is important to consider the specific needs of your project. This will not only affect the amount of each type of grass needed, but also the total cost of the project. Therefore, consider all the needs to create a functional field.
Choose the Type and Quality of Synthetic Grass.
Choosing the type and quality of synthetic grass will also impact the quantity needed. Sportlink has sports grasses in its catalog designed and developed considering the needs and characteristics of each sport.
For example, if the field is used for sports such as tennis or paddle tennis, it is necessary to install a lower synthetic grass to provide more stability for the athletes and precision in their plays, while for football, taller grass is needed to help the ball roll. Whatever your sport, Sportlink has the ideal grass.
