The FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup played on Xtreme Turf at the Montreal Olympic Stadium. The artificial turf pitch was built by Carpell Surfaces and achieved FIFA Two Star Certification.
The final matches of the Under-20 Women’s World Cup Canada 2014 commenced this weekend at the Montreal Olympic Stadium. A dramatic finale ended as Germany edged out Nigeria 1-0 in an extra-time goal. In the 3/4 place final, France beat Korea DPR 3-2 to secure the third overall tournament place.
The synthetic turf football pitch at Olympic Stadium was expertly installed by Carpell Surfaces, and features the latest Xtreme Turf artificial turf system from FIFA Preferred Producer Act Global. This latest technology in artificial sports turf uses an exclusive diamond dual-fiber blend from Bonar Yarns. The Xtreme Turf DX60 system offers the most resilient grass-like fibers, proven by extensive wear testing. The synthetic turf blend provides a natural appearance, while offering optimal performance, comfort and durability. Based on FIFA Laboratory Test results, DX60 achieves high marks on all measures.
The field passed rigorous laboratory and field testing to earn a FIFA Two Star Certification, in which criteria are based on the benchmarks of natural grass fields in good condition. This ensures that artificial turf pitches built to these guidelines will mirror the playing characteristics of natural grass.
The Montreal Olympic Stadium pitch hosted a total of ten tournament games throughout the Women’s Word Cup. Congratulations to the winners and all the players for a fantastic tournament!

Polyvalente Le Carrefour, Val d’Or, Quebec. A FIFA Certified Xtreme Turf football pitch built by Carpell Surfaces.
July, 15, 2014
With nine world-class synthetic turf fields built in 2013, and ten already confirmed in 2014, the Act Global and Carpell Surfaces partnership is driving the demand for professional FIFA Quality playing surfaces in Canada.
Carpell Surfaces is focused on driving the standard for the highest quality synthetic turf systems in Canada. The company completed a total of nine full-size artificial turf fields in 2013, eight of which were FIFA tested and achieved passing results.
The artificial turf surfaces were a mix of soccer, rugby, lacrosse and multipurpose, expertly built to the highest quality standards to meet the guidelines set forth by FIFA and local sporting authorities. Carpell partners with leading synthetic turf manufacturer Act Global to offer the most advanced technology in artificial sports turf. As a FIFA Preferred Producer for Football Turf, Act Global’s synthetic turf products are designed to meet top natural grass benchmarks per FIFA’s quality guidelines.
While all synthetic turf provides longer playing hours, less maintenance and water savings, the differentiating factor is in the performance and safety features of FIFA quality turf. To achieve FIFA Certification, the manufactured product and finished installations are third-party tested for factors such as ball behavior, shock absorption, abrasion, traction, foot stability, UV weathering, tuft bind, durability and more.
“Carpell Surfaces has an excellent reputation for installing state-of-the-art, safe and high performing sporting surfaces,” said John Baize, managing director at Act Global. “We are proud to partner with the professionals at Carpell and look forward to our continued success for many years to come.”
The companies already have ten artificial turf fields confirmed for 2014, featuring a mix of soccer, football, lacrosse, rugby and multipurpose indoor synthetic turf.
