Synthetic Turf Equipment

AERATOR
Compacted synthetic turf pitches are a thorn in the side of the field managers. Synthetic turf pitches are very sensitive to compaction due to intensive usage and contamination. Compaction of the fiber/infill system will lead to compacted pitches and the damping effect of the system will be lost. An additional disadvantage is that the grip of the sport shoes will be reduced, eventually this will cause injuries.

LEAF CLEAN
To keep an artificial sportsturf in the right condition, it is important to remove leaves on time from the field. By doing that, you prevent the leaves from being kicked into the infill. The Leaf-Clean is the ideal machine for collecting leaves, small twigs and such. The suction box is specific designed to only collect leaves and not infill material. The suction box is of course completely adjustable, so that the Leaf-Clean can be used on different types of infill material...

QUICK CLEAN
Maintenance of synthetic turf, playability and extracting particulates. These are several subjects that frequently pass under review, when it concerns the maintenance of different types of synthetic turf pitches. This is not surprising. A synthetic turf pitch consists of an intelligent system, where the suppliers and contractors adjust the technical characteristics of the pitch to wishes and demands from the sport associations...

ROTOBRUSH
Brushing the edges of synthetic turf pitches is important. In general, the most persistent contamination is around the edges, primarily in the form of moss and algae settlements. All this contamination can generate dangerous, slippery situations for the athletes. Besides which, the dirty edges impair the appearance of your pitch. You don’t want to give moss and algae a chance to take hold...

SANDSPREADER
Do you want to keep your sports turf or golf course in prime condition? We know it is a challenge throughout the entire year. The GKB Sandspreader can help to evenly apply or spread a vast variety of materials across your fields. For example, spreading sand on your golf course or sports turf, during both the construction of your fields or for maintenance purposes. The Sandspreader is the perfect machine to do just that...

TOPFINISH
The ‘finishing touch’ will determine the appearance of your synthetic turf pitch. With the Topfinish you can drag every type of synthetic turf pitch. During the operation, you are able to spread the infill and remove possible contamination from the mat structure. Result: a good looking synthetic turf pitch of which you can be proud.

INFILL TESET & BALL ROLLER
The Infill Tester is a device that you can use to easily and accurately measure your infill material on synthetic grass.
The Ball Roll Tester measures how far the ball rolls on synthetic grass. The distance the ball rolls is directly related to the speed of the synthetic turf.
Synthetic turf has become a popular ground covering option for sports fields and recreation centers, and for good reason: this artificial grass is durable, low-maintenance, and provides a smooth, consistent surface for athletic events. While caring for synthetic turf is relatively simple, it still has a few crucial maintenance needs. STEC Equipment has innovative, high-quality synthetic turf equipment to help you meet those needs.
