  Advantages and Benefits



TigerTurf Hockey Systems

TigerTurf offers hockey turf products for three different systems unfilled, dressed and filled. All meet the Federation of International Hockeys (FIH) performance standards.

Filled - TigerTurf's sand-filled hockey fields have excellent features
  • Hockey surfaces that are long lasting and offer excellent ball speed and foot traction
  • Multisport - ideal for not only hockey but also other sports

Unfilled TigerTurf WETT turf hockey fields are regularly used for international matches throughout the world
  • Where hockey players demand water turfs, the amount of water required is significantly reduced when compared with the requirement of other hockey turfs
  • Engineered to provide a playing surface that lasts longer and plays better

Dressed TigerTurf's sand-dressed hockey turfs feature densely tufted, soft polyethylene curled yarns that are part-filled with selected round sand
  • When laid over a rubber pad, all FIH "Global" playing standards are achieved and the need for water is eliminated
  • The special fibres provide a synthetic surface that plays like a 'wet field', whilst the sand layer supports the base of the fibres in strength without appearing on the surface
  • For the player, the game is enhanced; for the owner, money is saved
