FAQs
What is Game ON turf technology? Game ON is a turf system from Shaw Sports Turf that uses tufted-in technology to incorporate logos, lines, and other design elements directly into the turf. This removes the need to cut and seam those elements into the field as separate inlays. Fewer inlay seams mean fewer potential separation points, supporting field quality and player safety while streamlining installation. The technology also allows custom graphics, end zone branding, and mow patterns.
What are the benefits of recovering infill during turf replacement? Recovering existing infill creates an opportunity to recycle or reuse material that would otherwise be removed with the old field. Where reuse is suitable, it can reduce the need for new infill and lower the environmental impact and cost of replacement. Recovery must be planned as part of turf removal, with the material’s condition and the requirements of the replacement system determining what can be used again.
