Often traditional grass within airports is subject to harsh climatic factors that lead to brown spots or full-on browning of the entire patch. To combat this takes detailed maintenance and upkeep and a significant amount of planning for runway and taxiway closures. In many cases, especially during hot and dry summer months, this maintenance is fruitless and the patch will remain brown. This discoloring has serious implications for pilots in the air. Overhead, it can be much more difficult to best differentiate between brown grass and gray pavement than a vibrant green patch of grass would be. Additionally, any painting of infield islands within the airport bears another continued cost and necessary maintenance.
AvTurf helps to combat this issue with industry-leading synthetic turf that combines the aesthetics of healthy natural grass and the extreme strength of sports turf. Even with a 30-year life expectancy, AvTurf never loses its bright green visibility all while virtually eliminating the need for maintenance. The high-quality artificial grass system maximizes the use of runways and has been identified by the FAA as a tool to increase visual delineation for multi-entrance taxiways and other painted infield islands. AvTurf’s visual conspicuity is unmatched by natural grass and has the potential to substantially increase airport operational efficiency.

Located on the northern edge of the island city-state of Singapore is a progressive secondary school with a new, state-of-the-art multi-use athletic field. Committed to the ideals of a holistic education, Yishun Secondary School (YSS) has built an environment for students that allows for individualized growth in a multitude of ways. This foundation of nurturing education helps to create innovators, thinkers, and contributors that carry the school’s vision: “Quality Mind, Caring Heart”.
Part of this vision is the physical and mental benefits that are associated through recreational and competitive play. In order to ensure students have access to a reliable and safe athletic field, regardless of the city’s abundant rainfall, Yishun Secondary School selected Act Global’s Xtreme Turf for its new field. The artificial grass system eliminates the need to delayed/canceled practices after following storms and is tested to be strong enough to withstand several practices each day for years to come.
This installation was possible through the expertise of our partner, Singapore ATS Landscape & Construction. Providing the best products, installation, and customer service available in the city, Singapore ATS Landscape & Construction helped to craft a one-of-a-kind sports field for YSS that is professional quality.

The Act Global team has been working away just outside Houston, Texas, checking up on the bear branch community soccer fields in The Woodlands. The installation of our Xtreme Turf at this large, multifield complex was completed throughout 2012 and 2013 to satisfy the growing needs and number or sports enthusiasts within the city. The artificial grass fields have since served as all-weather surfaces for daily practices and recreational play alongside competitive tournaments for local teams.
Despite years of opportunities for wear and tear of the turf systems, upon a thorough inspection of the fibers, infill, and overall aesthetic of the park, it has been found that the fields have remained in impeccable shape. Our team has been working to revitalize the many fields, but have found that our comprehensive maintenance procedure is not as necessary as would-be expected after 5-6 years of continuous use. The fibers of the Xtreme Turf system display no evidence of breakage throughout the park, and the infill is still soft and has not compacted.
Act Global’s specialized deep grooming process is aiding in the continuous assurance of fiber upkeep. For the community members of The Woodlands, this maintenance means that they will have consistent and safe high-performance fields for years to come.

This past weekend Act Global’s sales manager for Eastern Europe participated in one of the most strenuous and testing physical competitions, all while sporting the Act Global name. Triathalon Radlow is an annual 2-day event that pushes athletes to their limits and tests the discipline they have built over the past several months of training. This was the fourth year of the event, hosted in and around the Radłowski Reservoir-one of the most pristine reservoirs in Poland.
We support our Act Global family getting active and pursuing their favorite hobbies. We couldn’t be more proud of our team for always pushing themselves harder both at work and in their personal lives. Congratulations for conquering this tremendous feat, we will continue to cheer you on at the next triathlon!
