Why choose high-quality artificial turf as the surface covering for padel courts?

There are two main reasons:

1. Excellent durability and stability

Artificial turf has excellent durability and stability. Compared with natural grass, artificial turf can withstand the impact of weather changes and frequent use, maintain its flat and consistent surface, and ensure the safety and comfort of athletes during the game. In addition, the maintenance cost of artificial turf is relatively low, and it does not require regular watering, fertilization or mowing, which greatly reduces the workload and cost of maintenance.

2. Provide good rebound and sports performance

Artificial turf can provide good sports performance. It is designed with the needs of athletes in mind, can effectively reduce friction, reduce the risk of sports injuries, and protect knees and ankles. When playing padel sports, artificial turf provides a good rebound effect, ensures the accuracy of ball speed and rotation, and enhances the fun and competitiveness of the game.

3. Provide scientific elasticity, better than cement and asphalt foundations

It should be noted that ground foundations such as cement, asphalt or uneven soil are not suitable for padel courts. These foundations lack elasticity, may cause athlete injuries, and have difficulties in drainage and turf maintenance, which affects the overall experience of the game.

What other padel court flooring options are available?

Natural grass

Pros:
Visual appeal: A properly maintained natural grass court is green and highly ornamental.
Friendly shock absorption: Natural grass is usually softer, which helps to reduce pressure on joints and makes sports more comfortable.

Cons:
High maintenance costs: Frequent watering, mowing and pest control are required, which is much more expensive than other flooring materials.
Unstable field condition: The field quality fluctuates greatly due to weather and maintenance, which may affect the playing experience.
Limited use time: Dew or rain can make natural grass slippery, so special attention needs to be paid to playing time and weather conditions, which may limit the frequency of field use.

Polypropylene or acrylic flooring

Pros:
Easy to manage: This synthetic material can create a flat and smooth field, ensuring a more even bounce of the ball and a more stable playing experience.
Easy to maintain: Especially for indoor fields, polypropylene or acrylic surfaces are durable and easy to clean daily, so they can be used all year round.

Cons:
Lack of cushioning: Compared to turf, these surfaces are harder and have a greater impact on players' joints, which may increase discomfort and risk of injury.
Poor grip and shock absorption: Synthetic surfaces are more slippery and may limit quick changes of direction or sudden stops, affecting the smoothness of the game.

Concrete or asphalt floors

Pros:
Increased durability: If the surface is covered with a synthetic coating, it can not only reduce wear, but also adjust the grip and ball bounce effect as needed.
Cost-friendly: Concrete and asphalt materials are relatively cheap and affordable during the initial construction stage.

Cons:
Long-term cost increase: Over time, cracks and unevenness may increase the need for maintenance, leading to gradually increasing costs, especially for outdoor venues.
Lack of safety: These surfaces absorb heat seriously and may become unsuitable for sports in hot environments. They also have poor shock absorption protection for joints and greater friction when falling.
Unstable performance: Without the right coating, hard surfaces may cause irregular ball bounces, increase the difficulty of the game, and fewer players are familiar with such venues.

Generally speaking, the most suitable surface for padel courts is artificial grass!!
