Proven Turf Protection!
Terrasnap® Design Concept
Terrasnap® is one of the “budget” range of proven turf protection systems by Terraplas. It is designed for pedestrian use to protect the turf playing area at Stadiums when they are being used for non-sporting events. It allows the passage of air and light and each tile overlaps it’s adjacent tiles to prevent rubbish & non-desirable liquids from passing through to the turf – whether natural or artificial.
Terrasnap® Maintains the Original Terraplas® Features
- Stage major rock concerts and international matches within hours of each other
- Quick and easy to fit
- Allows the passage of air, light and water
- Performs to the highest public safety standard
- Total pitch protection for your turf from large crowds
Terrasnap® Features
Terrasnap® was designed based on the proven features and performance of Terraplas®, Terraflor® and Terratile®. However, it also has some distinct advantages;
Storage - it requires approximately one third the space
Transportation - approximately three times the amount can be carried on a truck, therefore if the system was to be hired to a third party, the transport costs are significantly less
Laying & Lifting - tiles ‘snap’ together quickly and easily without any specialised equipment
Labor - as it is approximately one third the weight, it is less tiring on labor
Overlaps - it overlaps, which is unique in turf coverings, therefore there are no gaps for rubbish & liquids to go through onto the turf
Expansion - it has expansion capacity built into the system, therefore there is no buckling under extreme temperatures
Cleaning - it is much easier and faster to clean due to its smoother top and bottom surfaces
Lifespan - long lasting
Price - it is approximately 75% less
Versatility - should a stadium that currently has natural turf ever decide to change to artificial turf, uniquely, Terrasnap® has been designed for protection of both natural and artificial turf, therefore the cover would not need to be changed
Safety
Safety is of paramount importance when large crowds are involved and Terrasnap® is a very safe turf cover. The solid, totally interlocked floor ensures that there are no tripping hazards, as associated with other systems, and the top surface has an integral non-slip pattern.
