Formation of sports pitches in 3G artificial grass usually include the groundworks, drainage and all aspects to get the sub base prepared for the 3G football pitch base to be installed. The 3G synthetic turf sports surfaces are installed onto sports shockpads to absorb the players falls and prevent injuries. Sports fencing and sports floodlights are usually constructed within the construction of the 3G football field so that it can be rented out at night to create extra revenue.
A full size 3G football pitch is usually installed with a selection of multi sports line marking on the sports surface area because then hockey and rugby could be played on the same area. The multi sports also usually line marked are for 5aside football, 7aside football and futsal so that the most can be made out of the sports facility.
A 3G football pitch is usually installed to a depth of 40mm pile height for football and hockey upto a depth of 60mm depth pile height which is more driven towards rugby league and rugby union. The longer pile height 3G grass is so that more rubber infill can be installed to make it more cushioned for the players when they get tackled in rugby.
Other names also known for the 3G artifical grass pitches are ipitch which is installed at widnes rugby league club, rhino turf synthetic sports pitch, conqueror artificial grass sports surface or a desso sports synthetic pitch. The difference in these types of third generation grass products is the difference in yarn and stitch rate for the outdoor carpet. Two types of yarn is used which is polyethylene synthetic grass and polypropylene synthetic turf.
