Sports fields

The grass sports fields are continuously thickened by their use. This leads to pore closing which is accelerated by the waterlogging.

The natural exchange of gas cannot take place anymore. As a result, oxygen deficiency develops and fermentation gases such as methane and hydrogen sulphide are generated. An anaerobe ambient builds up in the turf-bearing layer with a toxic effect and all negative consequences for the lawn.

The shear strength and resistance of the lawn decrease and this leads to diseases and dying off of the grass.
The greater the thickening is, the higher the need for oxygen.

A frequently used sports field becomes robust and resistant when it has growth of roots mass. However, since the roots grow deeper only when there is oxygen available to them, we bring the oxygen where it is needed. With the gas exchange and the oxygen supply, the mechanical aeration measures can be considerably reduced, because they also have a negative impact by thickening and damaging the growth of the turf.
