Act Global Launches New Web Domain www.ActGlobal.com
Austin, TX (July 10, 2013)
Worldwide synthetic turf manufacturer’s growth and expansion into new segments prompts decision to acquire a new web domain.
To reflect their growing position in multiple segments within the synthetic turf market, Act Global Sports has launched a new website www.ActGlobal.com. While the company was founded on sports turf, Act Global has added product lines over recent years for landscaping, aviation and landfill uses.
The company utilized an intermediary to acquire the premium web domain from another USA firm in an unrelated industry. While its corporate branding will reflect the Act Global brand, there is no change to any corporate legal structures around the world.
John Baize, managing director of Act Global, explains that this decision reflects both the company’s strategy and its corporate values. “Our innovation strategy starts with key concepts of synthetic turf – the numerous environmental, aesthetic and land use benefits – and applies it across multiple applications through research and development investments. As our business and product offerings continue to grow, it is important that our brand stays relevant across our widening segments,” said Baize.
According to Baize, the firm’s “Be More” tagline also conveys Act Global’s mission to continually improve every facet of its business. Whether product technology, relationships with its valuable partners, maintaining a sustainable business model, or lending support to world aid organizations, Act Global is focused on being socially-conscious and a leader in the business community. Act Global actively supports organizations such as CARE, World Vision and Conservation International.
For the new ActGlobal.com, Baize said the company wanted a modern, energetic and approachable look. The redesigned site features a black background with bold accent colors, simple navigation and an interactive home page displaying the company’s social media feeds, a video player and rotating news images. Visitors can easily navigate the company’s business segments, corporate information, product range, testing data, and industry information such as artificial turf installation guidelines, synthetic turf maintenance guidelines, the FIFA Quality Concept for Football Turf, natural grass benchmark studies and more. The website is translated into nine different languages to reach the company’s global market.
While the company still focuses largely on synthetic sports turf, artificial turf is also a natural fit for a variety of other applications. LiteEarth has a patent pending earth capping system, which permanently merges synthetic turf to an EPDM membrane for long-term closure of landfills, coal ash and gypsum deposits. The company also manufactures lines of aviation turf, golf turf, pet turf, landscape turf and more.

New multi field sports installation features Act Global Xtreme Turf
To meet the needs of the growing number of sports players in The Woodlands, as well as realize cost savings, the township has replaced six natural grass recreational fields with durable, all-weather synthetic turf.
The playing surfaces were supplied by artificial turf manufactured by Act Global, and feature high quality, UV resistant, durable synthetic turf. The artificial turf aids significantly in water conservation and maintenance costs, and can accommodate far more playing hours than natural grass fields. While synthetic turf fields are not maintenance free, they do require significantly less time and money to keep up than natural grass fields.
Approximately 544,600 square feet of all-weather turf was installed between Bear Branch Sportfields One, Three, Four and Six and Alden Bridge Sportspark Multipurpose Fields One and Two. The fields are being consistently utilized for tournaments, community members and by players of all ages.

FIFA Goal Project at Brazil National Training Center, Granja Comary
Austin, TX, March 19, 2013
With the recent installation of a FIFA Recommended Two Star synthetic turf pitch from Act Global, the Confederação Brasileira de Futebol (CBF) has one of the top playing surfaces in the world. The FIFA Two Star mark indicates a field which is assured to meet the highest international performance and quality standards for elite level football.
Bordered by lofty mountains, and situated at an elevation of 871 meters outside Rio de Janeiro, the site of the CBF Training Center, also named Granja Comary, is picturesque. The new synthetic turf pitch was installed as part of a FIFA Goal Project, which enables member associations to fulfill developments which advance football in their countries. Act Global was selected because of their high-quality artificial turf and commitment to FIFA international performance standards.
FIFA Recommended Two Star pitches meet the most stringent requirements for top-class international sport, tailored towards the specific needs of elite football. To be awarded this mark, pitches are required to undergo two phases of rigorous laboratory and field testing conducted by FIFA-accredited institutes. Sports Labs performed field testing at the training center, for deformation, shock absorption, energy restitution, ball roll, ball rebound, traction, torsion and aesthetics. The tests were run multiple times on various surface points to ensure precise results. The field was determined to meet the top professional quality and performance standards to earn FIFA Two Star certification.
The original construction of the CBF Training Center was the first Goal Project implemented in Brazil, completed in 2005, to help elevate football education and training in this top football nation. The famous Brazilian national football team is the only national team to have played in every FIFA World Cup, and with five World Cup victories, they currently hold the title for most wins. In 2014, Brazil will also host the FIFA World Cup and Granja Comary will be the site of preparation for World Cup football players.
As part of the CBF International Programs, youth, college and professional players from around the world can access this world-class facility. CBF International offers team travel packages, coaching education, individual training, football camps, goalkeeper programs, facility tours and more.
Over the last seven years, Act Global has been awarded a total of 15 FIFA Goal Projects in Africa, Asia and South America.
