POWERgrass

The history of the POWERgrass company begins in 2016, with the aim of strengthening the launch of the hybrid grass system of the same name already used in numerous football fields in Europe.

The company's mission is to combine different skills, integrating experience in the use of synthetic and natural grass, fundamental for the creation of high-performance sports facilities, safe for play and sustainable on an economic, social and environmental level.

During the installation at the Malta stadium, inaugurated by the FIFA President as part of the strengthening of football and local tourism, the FIFA president expressed admiration for the effectiveness of the system. Starting from 2024, the POWERgrass system has been selected for the construction of the pitches for the next World Cup.

Not only professionals have benefited from POWERgrass, but also amateurs. An example is the new field of the Municipality of Cislago, which opted for a hybrid field instead of a synthetic one during the winter 2019/2020, a field that has now become the home of Como Women.

Performance and safety

Traction, stability and softness, unparalleled characteristics

The POWERgrass hybrid pitch offers better traction, stability and softness, in short, a safe playing surface because it reinforces the natural grass turf! The player quickly becomes familiar with the pitch and is more focused on the action, offering greater spectacle.

Resistance and durability

Lasts up to 30 hours of gaming per week, lasts over 20 years

When it comes to hybrid turf for intensive recreational use, the durability of natural grass is often questioned, which is why we have optimized the system features, installation method and maintenance. The POWERgrass system is being studied by Sport England on the pitches installed in 2017 at Bisham Abbey National Center and Regent's Park in central London to see if it is a valid alternative to synthetic grass and the response is positive. In the UK, rubber from post-use tires has been banned from artificial pitches from August 2022, giving six years to remove it from existing pitches, while in Europe it is being voted on by member countries, so there is a need for an effective alternative, as the report highlights for the first four years examined.

Ecology and convenience

Easy and modest maintenance, positive environmental impact

The POWERgrass hybrid system is in line with the "Do No Significant Harm" (DNSH) principle for the environment, which is fundamental for accessing PNRR funding. It offers the opportunity to create an innovative and effective field to meet all the six objectives of the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) because: a) it promotes the ecological transition by spreading notions of ecological maintenance of sports fields which can also be extended to the agricultural sector, b) it monitors growth conditions and remotely manages the systems installed using digital technology, c) it strengthens the growth of SMEs that invest in innovation and training, d) it offers opportunities for international social cohesion by organizing tournaments with PRO teams, e) it has a positive impact on health and on the environment and is resilient to climate change, and f) promotes new skills that stimulate the critical, civic and collaborative sense of young operators. The POWERgrass hybrid system with constant but low maintenance can last up to 30 years and is reusable at the end of its life cycle.
