FieldTurf started in the sport surfacing industry in 1988 with the manufacture of NovaCourt, a synthetic grass for tennis courts and NovaTee, a synthetic surface used to minimize wear and tear around golf practice tees under the name SynTenni Co.

Based on a need to replicate real grass with these installations, the company began developing synthetic turf surfaces for other sports installations including soccer, lacrosse, football and baseball. NovaTee was re-engineered as a playing surface for contact sports.

Marketed under the name FieldTurf, the system replicates a natural grass surface, but offers the durability and cost benefits of synthetic fields. FieldTurf is a safe alternative, resulting in a documented reduction of sports injuries.
The sand and rubber infill system is the biggest technical development that the sport surfacing industry has seen in the last twenty-five years. This patented technology sets FieldTurf apart from all other sports surfaces.

The initial break came in October of 1993 when, after presenting their product at numerous trade shows, they were able to sell installations of FieldTurf for indoor soccer facilities. Since then, the Company has conducted extensive research and development in improving the quality and longevity of FieldTurf and it’s application in the world of Football.

FieldTurf's efforts have resulted in increased market share due to the formidable network of sports advisors throughout the world who provide invaluable contacts. The patented system of installation results in exceptional quality for which FieldTurf is now renowned.
