How To Clean And Maintain The Artificial Turf Of The Football Field

1. Basic requirements for maintenance:

Artificial grass lawn, artificial grass field maintenance, artificial grass, football field maintenance, artificial grass basketball court, artificial grass tennis court. After the installation of artificial turf on the sports field, it takes at least two weeks to stabilize the grass fiber. Although sports events can be held during this time, we recommend that all heavy equipment and unnecessary traffic vehicles do not enter the stadium. Also, during this time, the number of sweeps should be reduced to the * limit, especially if it is not cleaned at high temperatures. In addition, artificial turf, unlike natural grass, often takes several weeks of use and weathering to achieve athletic performance. This period of time requires not only the stability of the grass fiber, but also the proper filling of the particles to achieve a comfortable and ideal long-term movement.


2. Cleaning and decontamination:

Rain is a cleaner for artificial grass. It gently cleans away dust, pollen from the grass fibers and other pollutants that are scattered in the air. In any case, the artificial grass field needs to remove the garbage in time and reduce the following problems:

(1) Place enough garbage bins to prevent the garbage from overflowing.

(2), draw a special parking lane to reduce the dirt and car printing on the sports field.

(3) Emphasize the smoke-free environment. If possible, it is recommended to use a chewing gum similar to cigarettes.



3. Small-scale cleaning:

It is easier to clean the paper, peanut shells, melon seeds, tape, etc. in a timely manner with a vacuum cleaner after the game. A satisfactory vacuum cleaner can suck in shredded paper, food debris and dust on the surface.


When using these machines, there are a few things to note:


(1), brush type

The cleaning machine must have a synthetic fiber brush similar to nylon or polyolefin. The brush* has a small length of 2.5 inches. Brushes must not contain metal or metal wires.


(2), brush installation

Proper use of the cleaning machine will not carry the rubber particles filled in the turf, so the installation of the brush deserves special attention. The specific installation method depends on the type of the cleaning machine. When the installed brush can hardly touch the top of the grass fiber, the cleaning machine will work very well. Do not install the brush too low to fit into the grass fibers, fillers or liners. When the brush is installed too low, it will damage the turf and affect the filling. We do not recommend using a cleaning machine to remove dirt.


(3), temperature limit

In the summer, if the temperature exceeds 33 ° C, please do not use the cleaning machine.


(4) Vehicle gas emissions

In order to prevent fire or melt the grass fiber due to excessive temperature, do not park the vehicle without the flame on the turf. Do not discharge the vehicle's gas into the stadium regardless of the vehicle used.


(5), oil spill, etc.

Prevent oil, grease, liquids, etc. from spilling or dripping onto the surface of your turf during cleaning. Because these liquids will discolor the grass fibers, do not spill acidic liquids like batteries on the grass.


(6), frequency

Generally, the loose garbage is cleaned when needed. In the frequent use period of artificial grassland, the cleaning is generally two times a month.



4, the removal of stains:

Among most antifouling fibers, polyethylene is well known because most of the stains are produced by moisture, but polyethylene itself does not absorb moisture. Therefore, the "stain" on the polyethylene fiber can be cleaned with water or soapy water. The stain on the artificial grass is very easy to clean before it dries and hardens. Remove solids or stains like putty


First scrape off with a spatula, then blot excess liquid with a towel, clothing or paper.
