Capillary Hydroponics is an automated system for growth of premium natural grass that gives you complete control over turf quality
Never cancel a game because of precipitation again, and let players avoid frozen, slippery, muddy and waterlogged fields with superior drainage, geothermal heating and stronger grass
Compared to soil-grown grass and other solutions, Capillary Hydroponics doesn’t need as frequent replacements of the grass and can be used more often, for longer
Enjoy a field that never becomes too compact, dry or hot, and ensures the grass remains vibrant & not forced into hibernation
Let players avoid frozen, slippery and soggy fields with superior drainage, geothermal heating and stronger grass
Compared to soil-grown grass and other solutions, Capillary Hydroponics doesn’t need as frequent replacements of the grass and can be used more often, for a longer season due to its strong grass growth and geothermal heating of the rootzone.
Our system is specifically designed to grow grass that can withstand high traffic and tough games, with virtually no effect on the grass from player shoe traction & impacts, or other stadium events
The Hydroponic System is flexible and can be designed to accommodate stronger grass for areas with a greater wear
By dividing the field into different sections/zones with separate hydroponic systems, each with its unique prerequisites, we can easily adjust things such as fertilization rates, irrigation amounts and root zone moisture content to optimize the grass growth for each respective area and its wear pattern.
Set your grass growth on autopilot
The Capillary Hydroponics system efficiently promotes the growth of stronger grass with deeper roots, ensuring outstanding wear, tolerance to shade, disease, drought and heat stress, excellent tensile strength, and faster establishment.
Our grass offers the optimal combination of wear resistance, surface hardness and shoe-surface traction for maximum safety and ability to perform. With stronger turfgrass and sand in the rootzone there will be a reduction in impact force & vertical deformation, and an increase in energy restitution.
Making compliance easier than ever before
The Capillary Hydroponics system grows grass with 10-inch deep roots, making surface shear less possible to happen
Excellent shock absorption and rotational resistance that will never change, by using sand in the rootzone and a grass that grows denser on the surface
By using sand as growing medium there is no compaction to the ground, why the G-Max rating will never exceed 100 and can be set to the optimal level of 70-85
With reduced damage from shear and a lower likelihood of divots, a larger portion of the field will maintain a healthy grass cover
The use of sand as growing medium and the Capillary material enables drainage of 4-6 inches/h, without the need for ventilation and suction pumps
