When soft ground on approaches to greens caused havoc for golfers in Singapore, Fibreturf International placed them back on solid ground. Torrential downpours and poor soil drainage in Singapore gave a persistent problem for the owners of Laguna National Golf and Country Club. Soft, waterlogged collars around the greens caused inconsistent play characteristics and even the lightest traffic posed a serious problem for greenkeepers who were struggling to keep the course in reasonable condition.
Trials with Fibreturf reinforced rootzone proved that Fibresand International had a tried and tested solution to their problem which lead to the system being developed on a number of their greens and driving range. The use of Fibreturf can have a dramatic effect in reducing surface damage due to the tearing action of spiked footwear which would normally lead to a damaged surface. It can also help to reduce wear and compaction from golf buggies and maintenance vehicles.
A combination of technology and natural materials, Fibreturf reinforced rootzone provides a synthetically enhanced natural grass surface which can be used in all weather.

The climate in this part of the world shows Fibreturf at its best – regular periods of torrential rainfall are coped with by the free draining characteristics of the reinforced sand, while the three dimensional fibre stabilisation maintains turf integrity and provides a firm footing for the students in all weathers.
When it isn’t raining, the grass can be exposed to intense periods of heat, with surface temperatures regularly rising above 40°C. The millions of fibres per square metre of Fibreturf encourage a strong, drought and wear resistant rootmass, minimising surface damage and stimulating rapid regrowth while at the same time providing a natural cooling system for the players and spectators.
Fibresand International is able to install fibre reinforced products anywhere in the world with its specialised mobile plant, making it a preferable, cost effective alternative to all weather synthetic pitches.

In August 2012 The Bunyodkor Stadium and football academy was completed. The $150 million dollar, 34,000 seated beauty meets all the standards required to host international football and required a playing surface to match. In May 2013 Fibresand International (in conjunction with the stadium contractors) provided this in just 7 days.
With a combination of technology and natural materials, Fibreturf gives a high quality grass surface throughout the season. The material has been designed in order to obtain greater use out or natural turf whilst maintaining the high quality of surface demanded by present day sports users. Fibreturf has a number of key features which help it out-perform many rival products.
Fibresand International can provide you with a natural, green surface with properties which far exceed those of conventional sand or turf construction alternatives.

Fibresand International have received their first order of the year. Staff will be travelling 1500 miles to Moscow to mix 1400 tonnes of Fibreturf for a football field for the Otkrytie Arena. With a capacity of 43,000 seats the multi purpose arena has been constructed as part of Russia’s bid to host the World Cup in 2018. the stadium will be home to Spartak Moscow, one of Russia’s most successful football clubs.
Current temperatures in Moscow are around -13° but by the time our team arrive it should have warmed up a little to -3° (that’s positively Mediterranean!)
