Circular rubber crumbs replacement

A circular and inorganic substitute for rubber crumbs in artificial turf systems is planned to be introduced in the EU market by 2024.

The novel infill material has been created using virgin minerals and renewable energy derived from hydropower or geothermal energy production.

The material has been designed according to the European Green Deal initiative and the new Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP),

When replacing the pitch end-of-life (EoL) the filler can be c0llected and re-processed into a similar Rockpore material.

This fall, there will be testing conducted on the performance, wear, and environmental effects of the new infill material.
