Artificial Turf Suppliers & Installers
We supply and install artificial turf across the UAE for football, padel, landscaping and play, choosing grades that handle heat and building the drainage beneath.
Artificial turf covers a wide range of products, and choosing the right one matters as much as the installation. A football pitch, a padel court, a landscaped garden and a play area each need a different fibre type, pile height and infill. We supply and install turf specified for its actual use, not a single all-purpose product, so it looks right and performs.
Good turf is only as good as what is under it. We build a stable, free-draining base with the correct falls, then lay, seam and infill the turf properly. That base work is what keeps the surface level, drains it quickly and stops the problems that appear when turf is laid over poor ground.
For sport, we specify monofilament or fibrillated fibres with the right infill for pace and grip. For landscaping, we use natural-looking grades that stay green without water. For play, we combine turf with shock pads where fall protection is needed. In every case the fibres are UV-stabilised for the UAE sun.
Applications
Where artificial turf works best
| Application | Indoor / outdoor | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Football and futsal | Both | Durable sport fibres with sand and rubber infill |
| Padel courts | Both | Sand-filled turf tuned for pace and grip |
| Landscaping and gardens | Outdoor | Natural-look grades, no watering needed |
| Play and lawns | Both | Soft grades, shock pad added for fall areas |
The build-up
How artificial turf is built
- Turf pile. UV-stabilised synthetic fibres tufted to the required pile height.
- Performance infill. Silica sand and rubber granules that support the fibres and add grip.
- Shock pad. Elastic layer for player comfort and consistent ball behaviour.
- Compacted base. Engineered aggregate base laid to precise levels and falls.
- Drainage sub-base. Free-draining sub-base and drainage to clear occasional heavy rain.

UAE conditions
UV, heat and drainage
UV-stabilised fibres resist fading and brittleness under strong sun, and a free-draining base clears the occasional heavy rain quickly. Infill and, where used, shock pads help manage surface temperature and comfort, and we can advise on shade for areas used through the hottest hours.
Upkeep
Maintenance and lifespan
Sport turf needs periodic brushing to keep fibres upright and infill even, plus top-ups over time. Landscape turf needs only occasional rinsing and debris removal. With correct care, quality turf typically lasts around eight to twelve years depending on how heavily it is used.

Questions
artificial turf FAQs
How long does artificial turf last in the UAE?
With correct installation and routine care, quality turf typically lasts around eight to twelve years. UAE sun is demanding, so UV-stabilised fibres and a well-built, drained base are what determine whether turf reaches the top of that range.
Does artificial turf get too hot in summer?
Turf does warm in direct sun, as any surface does. Lighter infills, shorter pile and shade help, and for play areas we can advise on cooler options. For sport, watering before intense sessions and playing in cooler hours are common practical measures.
What is the difference between sport and landscape turf?
Sport turf uses harder-wearing fibres and specific infills tuned for ball behaviour and grip, while landscape turf prioritises a soft, natural look. Using the right grade for the job is important; a garden grade will not hold up on a pitch.
Do you supply turf as well as install it?
Yes, we supply and install together. Buying and fitting from one team means the turf grade, infill and base are specified as a system, which avoids the mismatches that cause problems when materials and installation are handled separately.
