When it comes to competitive athletic surfaces, quality materials, and expert construction are critical from the very start. What goes under the surface of your new artificial turf field or running track is just as important as the surface itself.

For more than 25 years, American Athletic Track and Turf has been a leading provider of athletic field construction services for schools and facilities in Eastern Pennsylvania, Southern Massachusetts, Delaware, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, Florida, New Jersey, and Maine. Here, we detail the importance of quality building materials at every step of the installation process and how they impact your athletes.

Why Quality Materials for Sport Surfaces Matter

No matter the sport or the level of competition, an appropriate playing surface is needed. High-quality sports flooring and surfaces ensure the comfort, safety, and physical health of athletes. The types of materials used to construct athletic surfaces play a significant role in injury prevention and athlete performance. Athletic surfaces constructed using the best quality materials offer athletes excellent shock absorption, better bounce, and improved traction. This enables players to safely train to improve their skills or fiercely compete against their opponents.

Better building materials also reduce maintenance requirements. For sports flooring to be effective and safe, it must be able to withstand long-term, heavy-duty use. Properly installed athletic surfaces made with quality materials have minimum maintenance requirements compared to other types of sports flooring. They are easier to clean, more durable, resistant to mold and bacteria, and have higher resilience.
