Artificial Turf That Handles Serious Training

SmartGrass is made from premium materials designed to withstand even the harshest treatment, making it a great choice for multi-purpose fitness spaces and running tracks, and with up to 10 years warranty on installation, you can rely on its performance long term.

Trying to do a high-intensity workout on an unstable or slippery surface can lead to injury, so don’t second-guess your grip on real grass or astroturf. With activities like sled work, sprint training, and heavy lifting, normal turf would be torn up and may not recover. SmartGrass will keep up with any intense workout and maintain traction and comfort the whole time.

SmartGrass isn’t just a great surface for unique workouts; it’s a long-term flooring solution for gyms of any size. Contact our team for a chat about how you can make the most of your gym’s floor space.

Common Questions

Do we need a shockpad underlay beneath our gym turf?

Shockpad is recommended if you will be using the turf for body and weight training. It helps with shock absorption, cushioning impact and is softer on the body. Our shockpads are firm to work out on while providing just enough flex to reduce discomfort and the chances of injuries and strain.

Underlay is not recommended underneath sled strips as the sled can create creases in your turf over time. In this case, turf should be glued directly to the concrete foundations for strength.

Can sports turf be laid indoors?

Yes! Artificial grass is just like carpet, and can be laid indoors.  Most of our products have a D or E class fire rating, meaning that they can usually be used indoors.

Who will install the sports turf for me?

Our local SmartGrass franchisee will usually be the one to install your lawn. They are professional turf installers (it’s all they do).

Does artificial grass come in different colours? (blue, purple, etc.)

Yes! Artificial grass used for landscaping comes in various colours and heights of green. Coloured turf (blue, purple, red, white, and yellow) are common colours for sports turf, and custom orders can be manufactured.

Can you put heavy gym equipment on artificial turf?

Yes, all SmartGrass gym turf can withstand the weight of cardio and weight machines and equipment. If a large amount of the SmartGrass surface is covered with significant weight, you might need to move equipment around to brush the blades back up every couple of months to get the best lifespan out of the turf.

Is artificial gym turf suitable for high-intensity training?

We use premium materials that can keep up with the most heavy-duty and high-intensity workouts like sled pushes, sprint training, and heavy lifting. SmartGrass is designed to withstand impacts and foot traffic without losing colour, feel, or traction, so you can rely on it for the long term.

Is gym turf easy to clean and maintain?

Keeping your artificial turf looking great is easy with our handy maintenance guide, and it’s not much different to any other flooring. SmartGrass can be vacuumed to pick up any debris, and can be kept sanitary by cleaning with mild soapy water and a sponge, then drying with a towel. Contact us for more advice or to book a professional maintenance service.

Why do gyms choose artificial turf over traditional flooring?

One of the biggest benefits of SmartGrass indoors is being able to do typical outdoor-based training without worrying about the weather. SmartGrass also has far greater durability and wear resistance compared to the typical rubber mats or carpet flooring, and requires less effort to maintain.

Will artificial gym turf hold its appearance over time?

With just a little TLC, your SmartGrass will look as good as day one for years to come, due to the high-quality materials we use to manufacture our range. Even with daily high traffic wear and tear, SmartGrass will continue to turn heads.
