Golf Innovation and Turf Technology

Putting Green Innovation

To date, most synthetic putting surfaces are installed using several inches and layers of deep sand fill to make the grass fibres stand up, thus causing the putting surface to become very fast, unplayable and unrealistic.

Most of these synthetic turf surfaces have a grain pattern that runs one way throughout the carpet, making the ball skip or hop across the grain; these deep sand filled greens also need periodic sand-fill and expensive top dressing. (Just like real greens!)

To create a ball speed that is required of 'tour greens', you need to fill the turf fibres with sand and top dress right up to the top of the fibres. At that point, you are putting almost entirely on sand and not the fibres. In time, the sand will settle or wash out, leaving your sand-filled green to roll unrealistically.

The new turf from European Golf is designed “off the shelf” to putt like a real “tour green”.

The Tour Proven TP1 surface has stimp speeds comparable to most Professional Tour Events without using any sand fill or top dressing at all. Our new turf fibres have been manufactured to stand up naturally, and our turf has virtually no grain therefore reducing hops and skips, and the ball rolls the same in all directions. The tips of the fibres have been bent to simulate the true roll of a real bent grass green.

Choosing the Right Golf Turf

European Golf work closely with developers all over the world to continually improve and perfect synthetic turf so that we are able to provide our customers the very best technology offers. Our turf has undergone several years of research and development, creating an efficient, yet affordable installation process. Best of all, our putting surface looks and putts just like real grass greens, they can even be chipped onto and they have excellent ball holding capabilities.

The putting greens serve its “users” current putting and chipping needs and shaves shots off their handicap. The Tour-Proven Turf (TP1) is comparable to the majority of greens found on the PGA European Tour.

European Golf uses artificial turf putting greens manufactured with UV-stabilised nylon 6.6 ribbon with manufactured fibres that naturally stand up with no assistance from sand infill. The perfect roll is produced by the fibres being bent over, giving no unrealistic rolls, which are commonly found on untreated deep sand infilled greens.

Your Experience

A member of our sales team meets with each prospective Client for an initial evaluation of their individual requirements. At this first appointment the Client is presented with an information pack containing a sample of the product as well as a brief outline of its characteristics and installation process.

Based on the Customer's personal requirements, a visual graphic design of the proposed green and a professional quotation are then produced respectively by our design and sales teams. Upon receipt of the client's acceptance an installation date is then agreed.

The installation process is then completed with minimal disruption to the Client.
