Natural Turf Fields – The use of crumb rubber as topdressing for aerification is instrumental in aiding the turf. It will provide a reduction in soil compaction, improves drainage, extends the turf life, and reduces bare spots. It can be used as a soil amendment during grow-in as well. With reduced soil compaction and improved drainage, the natural turf fields will provide a safer surface for the athletes and extend the playing season of the fields.

Rubberized asphalt is a high-performance alternative to traditional paving material. As a mix of asphalt and recycled rubber derived from scrap tires, rubberized asphalt is longer lasting, safer, less costly, and friendlier to the environment.
Rubberized asphalt:
- Enhances nighttime visibility
- Improves resistance to cracking, rutting
- Ages and oxidizes at a slower pace
- Reduces tire noise
- Decreases splash and spray when wet
“Rubberized Asphalt Concrete is a proven product–one that has many benefits, including being cost effective, durable, safe, quiet, and an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional road paving materials.” –Cal Recycle
Rubberized asphalt diminishes maintenance costs and provides a smoother, safer ride for motorists. And rubberized asphalt is laid using the same equipment as traditional asphalt, requiring no additional capital investment for contractors or municipalities.
Crumb rubber is made from recycled tires — after the steel belts and cords are removed from old tires, they are ground to create a spongy, soft material that can be utilized for a variety of applications. In addition to being used as infill for artificial and natural turf athletic fields, crumb rubber is used as an asphalt additive, as a non-slip additive to paint, and in various original equipment manufacturer processes.
Crumb rubber is used frequently as infill on artificial and natural turf playing fields, where it fills in-between the turf fibers or grass to provide numerous benefits to athletes and groundskeepers. Crumb rubber for turf can be found in virtually all types of playing surfaces or athletic fields, including:
- Golf courses
- Equestrian riding rings
- Baseball and softball fields
- Field hockey fields
- Running tracks
- Polo fields
- Playgrounds
- Recreational areas
- High-traffic areas on lawns
Whether used on artificial turf surfaces or natural turf, crumb rubber can provide significant benefits to those who use the fields as well as for those who maintain them. Here’s how crumb rubber infill can enhance playing surfaces:
- Artificial turf: Artificial turf playing surfaces such as football and soccer fields benefit from crumb rubber because the material provides a softer field for players. This reduces the risk of injuries and helps players prevent excessive wear and tear on their joints. Crumb rubber infill also serves to help provide better drainage, keeping fields free of mud and preventing damage caused by freezing. Groundskeepers also appreciate how artificial turf fields containing crumb rubber infield dry faster after rain and produce less dust in dry conditions. With crumb rubber infill, artificial turf surfaces are safe to play on practically all year. What’s more, they don’t have many of the problems associated with natural turf — such as mold, mildew and the need for harmful chemicals.
- Natural turf: Even natural turf fields can benefit from the use of crumb rubber infill. When spread onto a natural turf field, crumb rubber infill helps to aerate the soil and prevent soil compaction. This can extend the life of the turf and reduces bare spots caused by dying grass, while also providing the same benefits to athletes using the fields as with artificial surfaces.
Because it is made from recycled tires, crumb rubber is an environmentally responsible material, keeping millions of unwanted tires out of landfills. The material has been proven safe for people of all ages, making it a great choice for a wide variety of applications and uses.
