Surfaces for sports areas. Synthetic turf and needle-punched surfaces primarily designed for outdoor use - Specification for synthetic turf carpets

Abstract

This European Standard specifies minimum durability, environmental and toxicological requirements for tufted, woven, and knitted carpets used in synthetic turf sports surfaces. It is applicable to all forms of synthetic turf sports surface including those used for outdoor or indoor single sport or multi-sports areas. Notes: 1. The sports performance characteristics of a synthetic turf sports surface are provided by the combined properties of the synthetic turf carpet, any infill within the pile of the carpet, and any shockpad laid beneath the carpet. The selection of the correct permutations of each is complex and the responsibility of the sports surface designer. Minimum requirements for the sports performance and player welfare properties of a synthetic turf sports surface are given in EN 15330-1, and in sporting regulations published by some international sports governing bodies. Selection of the appropriate standard is the responsibility of the sports facility designer. 2 .Minimum requirements for the quality and performance of shockpads used within a synthetic turf surface are specified in EN 15330-4 .Minimum requirements for the quality and performance of infill materials used within a synthetic turf surface are specified in EN 15330-5
