Natural infill materials that are safe and non-toxic.
Commitment to Student Health: The well-being of our students is our top priority.
Safe and Regulated Infill Materials: Research has shown that rubber-filled turf, particularly black SBR granules, can release harmful particles during play. To ensure safety, we are carefully selecting safe alternative materials for our students. In Switzerland, artificial turf is strictly regulated by federal authorities (Baspo), with specific requirements to control turf abrasion and any chemicals in runoff water, and our project will fully adhere to these standards.
Safe and Compliant Infill Options: For our all-weather pitch, we will only consider turf that is either unfilled or uses safe, natural infill materials like cork or other biological alternatives. These options are non-toxic and meet strict health and safety standards. Additionally, all suppliers bidding on this project must demonstrate compliance with Swiss regulations, ensuring their products align with our commitment to student health and safety.
