SmartTurf launches antimicrobial athletic turf treated with Microban

Microban International announced that its longtime partner SmartTurf has launched a range of athletic turf products for health and sports clubs, along with athletic arenas. The new product range offers built-in antimicrobial protection, and was designed for businesses across the county looking for answers to heightened concerns around cleanliness and enhanced safety measures in fitness, sports and athletic facilities. 

Smart Turf Athletic Turf is made with a proprietary, high-performance polyethylene, which offers superb resiliency while remaining soft to the touch. The Microban antimicrobial technology is manufactured into the turf blades to provide permanent, built-in protection from the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew on the athletic turf.

“After identifying the lack of a similar product on the market in a time when health and sports club owners are looking for ways to instill public confidence around returning to their facilities, we felt strongly about expanding our partnership with Microban to include a built-in solution for this category,” said Duane Jensen, president of Catalina Home, parent company of Smart Turf.  “The built-in antimicrobial technology is key in that it never washes off, works 24/7, and is active for the entire life of the athletic turf.”

Smart Turf’s Multi-Sport Turf and Xtreme Play Turf with Microban feature antimicrobial protection and odor reduction with a soft feel and high performance for multi-purpose, indoor or outdoor use.  Smart Turf products are proudly manufactured in the USA at its state-of-the-art factory located in Chatsworth, Ga.
