In order to meet the club's objective of providing players and other users with a more sustainable football pitch, Amorim Sports’Nature infill was adopted to provide functional finish with less buoyancy and coagulating in rainy season, while remaining cork’s natural shock absorption feature, in the artificial turf system.
As a natural material, cork infills offer several advantages over synthetic solutions available in the market, including a natural look and feel, the absence of toxic substances and a neutral odour.
By virtue of its cellular structure and composition, cork is also an excellent thermal insulator, and can attenuate thermal variations. Due to their elasticity, cork infills can optimise shock absorption and energy restitution in the artificial turf system, and also absorb the impact from falls, thereby providing a more comfortable playing field for athletes.
The unique characteristics of this 100% natural, renewable and recyclable raw material ensure a perfect balance between performance and environmental sustainability.
Cork infills reduces the turf’s general maintenance costs and offers advantages for users compared to other types of infill: odourless, toxicity-free, reduction of surface temperature and elasticity characteristics.
