Long lasting elasticity

An elastic layer is used underneath the carpet in some artificial turf systems. An elastic layer is made of rubber granulate and a polyurethane binder. Genan delivers rubber granulate for elastic layers in two sizes, Coarse and Super coarse.

There are two main ways of making an elastic layer. Either it can be built on site (in-situ) where the rubber granulate is mixed with 8-12% polyurethane binder, or it can be made from  pre-fabricated rubber mats. In both applications, Genan high quality rubber granulate is used.

Coarse is a superior material used for elastic layers as the elastic properties in rubber from tyres are the very best available on the market. Several decades of research done by the tyre industry has developed a long lasting and elastic material which is extremely well suited for this particular purpose.
