Dealing with discarded synthetic turf – the Dutch way
Within three years of concerns being raised over the large heaps of discarded synthetic turf dotting the Dutch countryside, the Netherlands now has a flourishing synthetic turf recycling industry. As the wheels have started to turn, the question is: who will be next to be handed the baton in the sustainability cycle for synthetic turf?
Re-Match next to introduce sleeving
Re-Match is the next company to introduce sleeving. This concept ensures that all material is contained in the rolls from the moment they are rolled up on the pitch until they go into the shredder at the recycling facility. All it requires is the means to lift the roll off the pitch so that a sleeve – made out of recycled plastic – can be put on it and sealed.
