3G Sports Surface
3G Sports Surface or Third Generation Artificial Turf. The pile height selected for a 3G surface depends on the sport(s) to be played on the pitch. Generally, 3G rugby pitches will be played on a surface with a greater pile height than that used for 3G football pitches. But, for 3G football pitches, the choice of pile height is slightly more flexible and takes into account the age and ability of players.
3G pitches are normally filled with crumb rubber. The crumb rubber adds natural feel and ball bounce and reduces the risk of injury in 3G pitch systems. The artificial grass surface is weatherproof and porous. The allows play even when it is raining. Durable and practically invisible seaming produces one continuous and smooth-looking surface.
Artificial grasses can be installed over a cushioned pad or directly onto a suitably prepared base. The cushioning of a 3G pitch usually means it can be applied without the need for additional shock pads.
