Headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, Canada – FieldTurf USA, Inc. comes from humble beginnings. Its debut in the sport surfacing industry was in 1988 with the introduction of a synthetic grass system for tennis courts and a synthetic grass surface used to minimize wear and tear around golf practice tees. The company then began developing synthetic turf surfaces for other sports installations including soccer, lacrosse, football and baseball. FieldTurf focused on perfecting a sports field system with a sand and rubber infill, which provided superior athlete safety, high performance and extreme durability. The infilled artificial turf industry was born when, in 1994, FieldTurf USA, Inc. installed its first full size indoor soccer field.

When it comes to artificial turf sports fields, FieldTurf is the most trusted brand in the industry.

Whether its football, soccer, baseball or any other sport, FieldTurf fields provide athletes with the safety and performance they need to perform at their best, while giving field owners the durability they want to maximize the value of their investment.

FieldTurf was developed and engineered for athletes, by athletes. Before we came along, artificial turf was something to be avoided. The very phrase conjured up images of carpet and concrete, non-contact injuries, and careers ended prematurely. Natural grass was considered the only solution – even though it required constant maintenance and care. This was the environment in which we asked ourselves one question:

“Can we make synthetic turf that is equal to or better than the best natural grass?”

In seeking the answer to this question, we worked closely with athletes, former players, coaches, trainers, and doctors. Development included years of trials, tests, samples, equipment innovations and advanced formulas – all with the goal of developing an artificial turf system that combined the performance properties of natural grass with the benefits of a synthetic solution. It worked.
