Plays Like Natural Grass
Mondo's goal is to ensure that the
Mondoturf systems deliver the appropriate amount of shock
absorption and energy return, the key elements in determining the
feel, performance, and safety experienced on a natural grass field.
Mondo's turf research found that Ecofill produced results that were
closest to a well-maintained natural turf playing field.
Enhanced Safety
Ecofill creates consistent
resiliency across the entire playing field ensuring consistent HIC
and GMax results which reduces the risk of head injuries.
Furthermore, Ecofill efficiently absorbs the impact caused by the
weight of the player, allowing the player to pivot, plant, turn,
twist, and take-off without the risk of getting "caught in the
turf." The great dimensional memory shown by Ecofill guarantees a
perfect energy return.
Enhanced Performance
The superior dimensional memory
shown by Ecofill and the Fine Tuned underlayment guarantee a
perfect energy return. This ensures the athlete will be able to
plant, pivot, turn, and accelerate to the best of their
ability.
"We wanted a fast field, and the Mondo field is very,
very fast. This is the Lamborghini of fields."
George Rush - Head Coach
City College of San Francisco
Less Radiant Heat
Compared to Ecofill, traditional
black rubber granules will increase the temperature that radiates
from the field by 79.8%. The extra heat that radiates from fields
with traditional black rubber granules increases fatigue and
discomfort reducing the athlete's performance.
The table to the left show thermal images and their statistical
data taken on two adjacent fields, on infilled with Ecofill and the
other with black rubber infill. Both images were taken the same
day, with the same meteorological conditions and sunlight
angle.
Low Migration
Ecofill is 40% more dense than
traditional infill. High density reduces granule migration
providing a more uniform and stable field. It improves athletic
performance and reduces injuries.
"When the water cleared, not only had the infill not
migrated, but the field looked fabulous and was already
playable."
Paul O'Malley - Assistant Superintendent
Niles Township High School
Environmentally Green
Ecofill is 95% recyclable and free
of heavy metals, amine aromatics, and PAHs. Mondo has long been
committed to producing products that minimize impact on the
environment and contribute to a healthy atmosphere.
