Reciclagem Total de Grama Artificial

The recycling of sports facilities, and especially courts, is not a new endeavor. But until now, there has been a lack of a truly sustainable solution for recycling old artificial grass pitches. As the number of courts in need of replacement continues to grow, so does the number of courts in need of recycling. Recycling old artificial turf pitches is one of the biggest challenges facing the sports field industry in the coming years. Today we present a holistic approach to recycling that uses an innovative, sustainable concept.

Here is the content list:

• Recycling the whole turf

• Flexible recycling system

• Efficient recycling process

Recycling the whole turf

This method combines traditional methods with modern recycling methods and develops new processes in the field of material recycling. High-tech methods are used to recover mixed materials that can be used to produce new products. Artificial grass developers have focused on the whole turf from day one of the project - whether it is the substrate, filament, or infill, whether it is plastic or sand, everything will be recycled, and as efficiently as possible.

By separating the materials, the plastics (turf backing, filament, and rubber granules used as infill) are used to make new recycled products such as curbs, grass reinforcement grids, or flexible modular components that can be used in different areas. The portfolio also includes nail plates, which will be used directly in the installation of artificial turf. And sand, which makes up about 70% of the weight of the artificial turf, will be washed and reused for artificial turf pitches or other applications.

Flexible recycling system

We have adopted a flexible handling approach to recycling. For example, in processing the plastic extracted from the turf into secondary raw materials, in each case, a more rational method is chosen to dispose of the contaminated old artificial grass. This makes recycling both cost-effective and reduces carbon emissions.

It also offers a variety of possibilities when it comes to products made from recycled raw materials, enabling customized solutions for customers. Aging artificial pitches located in communities are able to be recycled, and the recycled material can be reintegrated into new construction projects both at the source of the waste and nearby, creating new use value.

Efficient recycling process

The most important aspect of recycling artificial turf is the issue of transportation. If we can choose a recycling address that is conveniently located, we can access shipping or rail routes directly from there, which means that the turf can be transported efficiently to the plant. In addition to the transportation process, the energy for the recycling plant should be based entirely on green power. Each step of production needs to be carefully considered in terms of energy and resource conservation. Thus, the sustainability of the recycling and production process is guaranteed.

Artificial grass is not useless at the end of its life but is a raw material for another industry. When we recycle turf as a whole and make it into new products, we can avoid waste and create new value. If you are interested in artificial grass, welcome to pay attention to Shandong Qingyuan Sports Facilities Co. Ltd. The company is dedicated to the research of artificial grass, and I believe that you will get useful knowledge.
