The specialised nature of sports surfaces has meant that Netlon works with StrathAyr™ Turf Systems of Australia to design, install and further develop ReFlex® mesh elements to provide a natural turf surface which is reinforced with a sand rootzone to provide long term economic and 'athlete-safety' benefits for stadiums and major sports events applications.

The ReFlex mesh elements provides a load bearing capacity equivalent to a secondary bitumen road. Further, the incorporation of the mesh elements prevents compaction and enables rootzone aeration which encourages vigorous turf growth and rapid repair. The concept provides for a high growth rootzone environment with rapid drainage rates, increased moisture retention, quicker wear recovery... and maintains a healthier turf all year round!

A large number of major sports stadiums now incorporate ReFlex® mesh elements in their field, world-wide. These stadiums provide intensive, all weather, multi-event use opportunities which have been highly valued by the stadium owners and operators.

examples include:


Murrayfield Scottish Rugby Union Training Grounds, Edinburgh, UK
Scottish National Stadium, Hampden Park, Scottish Football Association,
Glasgow, UK
Manchester United, Old Trafford, Manchester, England
Parramatta Stadium, National Rugby League, Melbourne, Australia
Colonial Stadium, Melbourne, Australia
Stadium Australia, Sydney, Australia
National Sports Complex of Malaysia
Tad Gormley Stadium, New Orelans , USA
Military Academy Soccer Pitch, Cairo, Egypt

And the list continues to grow...
