3G Grass
3G (Third Generation) is the latest artificial grass surface, and the most popular. 3G surfaces are made up of long pile synthetic grass with a mix of sand and a rubber crumb, or natural infill. This gives the unique texture of natural grass, but provides more even and smooth play than the varied terrain of a muddy pitch. The infill also has shock absorbent qualities too, and helps to keep the synthetic grass upright.
3G grass is a particularly popular surface in Football and Rugby.
