Ecocept: the start of your sustainable system
Ecocept is an unrivalled base system that offers performance and construction benefits as well as being made from 100% recycled materials, including end-of-life artificial turf.
The Ecocept ‘recipe’ can be modified to ensure it suits your required sports application. TigerTurf has artificial grass products tested with Ecocept to reach FIFA, World Rugby, RFL, GAA, ITF and FIH standards. Ecocept has enhanced play characteristics, giving a more natural feel to closely replicate playing on a natural grass pitch.
Ecocept boasts unrivalled capillary action giving the layer superior lateral drainage capabilities, and offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional drainage systems. Ecocept is a perfect solution for contaminated, brownfield sites and those with poor ground quality conditions,
Up to 300 tonnes of material are prevented from being sent to landfill for each new Ecocept pitch installed.
Ecocept technology was used to developed trekboards, pitch perimeter boards that prevents infill migration.
A full-size Ecocept field saves up to 112 tonnes of CO2 emissions. This is the equivalent to planting 112 trees or saving the CO2 emissions of an average size car for 22 years.
Installation of a pitch using Ecocept reduces build time, vehicle movements to and from site, site disruption and noise. This saves time and can lead to overall cost savings for a project compared to traditional pitch construction methods.
Up to 10 end-of-life artificial grass pitches can go into 1 full-size ecocept base, making your old pitch part of your new pitch.
Ecocept feedstock is made from 100% recycled plastics, whether that is end-of-life artificial grass, household waste or other plastics usually deemed 'unrecyclable'.
