U.S. Turf Synthetic Fiber Information
The PureBlade LSR Fiber:
Price:
Due to years of experience and large economies of scale, TenCate is able to offer a quality artificial turf fiber compared to competition at a very affordable price level. Whereas some still struggle to supply a standard quality Polyethylene (PE) fiber, we are able to offer reliable quality affordable for every club. Furthermore, the use of LSR fibers proves to result in less compaction of the top layer resulting in easier maintenance and thus an increased lifetime. The use of TenCate LSR makes it possible for players on artificial turf to make slide tackles safely, in fact, LSR has become a synonym for sliding friendly fibers.
Encapsulates infill:
Where early fibrillated fibers did not succeed to encapsulate the infill, the most recent LSR fibers do. Amongst others, the fibrillation patterns were upgraded to add additional possibilities in this respect. Other positive effects of this upgrade are better pile recovery and greener looks even if black SBR rubber is used as an infill.
Reliability:
Would you buy a unbranded car if you can buy an similar priced A-brand car of the same size? This is the same as choosing between unbranded PE artificial turf and TenCate LSR. The choice is made based upon superior quality and long term manufacturers’ experience.
Equipped with CLMT-Technology:
TenCate 3rd generation solutions can be equipped with the CLMT-Technology. The completely new fibrillation technology for high quality fibrillation and individual fiber looks.
Total cost of ownership:
Think about what quality and reliability can do. Installing fibers of high quality, but at a possibly higher price then the price of average quality fibers will result in a less then 3% higher investment for the total construction! In return you get a field with a long lifespan. Also the field will need less maintenance (yearly cost saving).
