OUR MISSION - To Add Value and Quality of Life to the Communities we Serve for Now and into the Future.


ARP Turf SYSTEMS - Athletic and Recreation Products, Inc. offers in-filled synthetic turf systems combining the appearance of natural grass with the all-weather playability, low maintenance and durability of synthetic turf. This advanced vertical-to-horizontal drainage technology uses a dynamic drainage and shock attenuation blanket that eliminates standing water. ARP Turf systems are manufactured to the highest industry standards and latest advances in synthetic turf technologies.

ARP Turf COMPONENTS -

  • Eliminates Fly-Out - Maximized grass and minimized infill separate the athlete from the infill and stabilizes footing. Rubber infill is under warranty for 8 years.
  • Excellent Drainage - Stone base circumvented as a conductive median for water. Evacuation rates can be pre-determined.
  • Climatic Dimensional Stability - A tertiary backing is added to the primary and secondary backings, creating an extremely stable product.
  • No Fibrillation or Premature Wear - Pre-configured yarn design will not fibrillate at all. At least seven times the wear-resistance of any fibrillation pattern.
  • G-Max Never Exceeds 150 (8-yr. warranty) - The safest, player-friendly sport surface ever developed. Natural "firm" foot feel.
  • Lower Surface Temperatures - Maximum possible heat reduction. There is no exposed infill, therefore, no solar energy absorption.
