For some competitors, the job ends with the installation of the track or the production of synthetic turf – not for us. Sustainability also means longevity. Even sports surfaces require proper maintenance to function optimally over the long term. That's why we offer our customers comprehensive support throughout the entire lifecycle of a sports surface through the Polytan Service Company – whether it's for repairs or wet and dry cleaning. Even the best artificial turf eventually reaches the end of its life and needs to be removed. At this statge, Polytan’s sister company FormaTurf steps in to recycle the used turf, thereby closing the material loop.
