Turf Tek Launches NextGen

Revolutionary Proprietary Installation Method Raises the Standard for Athlete Safety and Field Performance

Turf Tek is proud to announce the official launch of NextGen, its innovative synthetic turf field system engineered to deliver the next generation of athlete safety, and long-term performance and durability for schools, municipalities, and sports facilities.

NextGen combines Turf Tek's premium synthetic turf technology with its proprietary installation methodology to deliver a non-crumb rubber system specifically engineered to improve shock absorption, enhance athlete protection, and maximize long-term field performance.

"NextGen was developed in response to the growing demand for safer, more consistent, and non-toxic athletic surfacing solutions," said Chris Triolo, Managing Partner. "By addressing critical concerns such as crumb rubber off-gassing, impact attenuation, surface consistency, and all-around long-term player safety, our proprietary installation system delivers superior shock absorption and sustained performance throughout the life of the field. NextGen is more than an upgrade, it represents a new benchmark for the future of athletic surfacing."

Key Safety Benefits of NextGen Include:

  • Enhanced Impact Protection: Proprietary installation techniques improve force reduction and shock absorption to help reduce impact-related injuries.
  • Superior Crumb Rubber Alternative: Remove concerns associated with crumb rubber fields, including off-gassing, heat retention and material migration.
  • Consistent Surface Performance: Engineered for uniform playability across the entire field, minimizing inconsistent footing and surface irregularities.
  • Long-Term Safety Retention: Designed to maintain performance characteristics longer than traditional turf systems and natural grass, reducing degradation over time.
  • Optimized Drainage & Base Stability: Advanced subsurface construction prevents settling and maintains field integrity through all weather conditions.
  • Eliminates Exposure to Chemicals & Toxins: Older surfacing methods may expose athletes to bacteria, metals, VOCs, Phthalates, PFAS and other chemicals.

As athletic facilities continue prioritizing athlete wellness and risk mitigation, NextGen provides a forward-thinking solution that aligns with the performance expectations of modern sports environments while addressing the safety concerns of administrators, design professionals, and families.

With a full-service approach from design collaboration through installation, Turf Tek partners closely with architects, engineers, and facility stakeholders to ensure every NextGen system is customized to meet project-specific goals and performance requirements.
