The people’s sport
For decades, soccer has been the go-to sport for many people across the world. In every country, on every continent, and in almost any culture, some form of soccer is played in one way or another. Each player needs a team, which needs a club, which needs a durable pitch. That’s why, during the ever-growing popularity of ‘the beautiful game’ it is necessary to build a pitch that can withstand hundreds of hours of play. What people need are rugged pitches that can withstand rough tackles, whilst also remaining a safe playing surface. What people need is soccer grass.
That is why at Edel Grass, we not only offer these sport solutions to the public, but we offer them to FIFA-quality standard. The soccer grass we play on must adhere to health and safety regulations, research and development standards, and of course the regulations set by environmental and FIFA authorities.
Quality synthetic soccer pitches
Officially FIFA-recognized as the highest standard of synthetic soccer pitches, 3G pitches are currently the pinnacle of synthetic soccer pitches. In their most rudimentary form, our range of 3G synthetic pitches consist of synthetic turf, sand infill, and rubber infill. Additionally, our customers can opt for an absorbent pad underneath the turf to further limit risk of injury and increase ball speed.
Because our business isn’t limited to solely artificial soccer solutions, we offer all manner of pitches to also suit multisport fields, tennis courts, rugby pitches, and hockey fields. To this end, we offer 2G pitches, too. These pitches have shorter blades of grass and sand infill, which is ideal for fast paced sports which don’t require heavy physical challenges. All of our pitches are completely customizable in regard to blade height, density, and yarn shape; all of which impact the way the sport is being played.

The result of the long list of requirements, regulations, and standards is that the soccer grass pitches we develop are as safe as possible. Regardless of being a goalkeeper diving to the stanchion, a tough tackling centre half or the attacker that said centre half is planning on bringing down. Our systems provide a safe surface to land on. The risk of injury is greatly decreased due to the infill, sub-base and optional shock pad under the top layer of the pitch. Another added benefit of integrating such a quality pitch, is that the ball speed of our soccer grass solutions identical is to that of natural grass pitches.
Thus, pitches are developed to reduce the risk of injury. Poetically, we mean both the risk of injury to the player, as the risk of injury to the planet. The current highest FIFA-recognized standard of soccer grass is 3G, which stands for 3rd generation pitch. These pitches require some type of infill, may that be crumb or sand. However, the newer generation, 4G pitches, do not require it. This makes them more environmentally friendly, due to the limited use of plastics. We pride ourselves in being at the forefront of this innovation and are hoping this new generation gains recognition form the necessary sporting authorities.
