STH13E

Water-Based Artificial Hockey Turf

Key Benefit
  • Enhanced Ball Speed and Control: The water-based system creates a lubricated surface that reduces friction and improves ball speed with more stable control during hockey play.
  • The wet turf surface reduces friction during falls and helps lower the risk of skin abrasion during play.
  • Optional cooling yarn technology helps reduce surface temperatures during summer conditions and lowers water evaporation.

STH13E water-based artificial hockey turf is developed for water-based hockey pitch systems, featuring PE KDK yarn with a unique three-dimensional structure. Through the KDK process, the yarn is woven, heat-set, and separated to create dense and irregular micro-wave curls that reduce directional flattening and help maintain a consistent ball path during play. Water is able to spread evenly across the hydrophilic yarn surface of the turf. It creates a stable water film that reduces surface friction and supports faster ball movement with improved control. The water layer also helps minimize the effects of thermal expansion and contraction, allowing the turf surface to maintain better flatness during long-term water-based operation.
