Abstract

See full text

A synthetic turf sports flooring product with a performance surface upon which sports can be played. The flooring product is formed from polymer fibers entangled to provide a sports surface layer which provides the performance surface, and substantially all of the polymer fibers of the sports surface layer are locked in position relative to the synthetic turf sports flooring product as a whole by the arrangement of fibers and contact between fibers in the mat. The fibers may be locked in position by entanglement, surface friction between fibers and/or inherent bonding of fibers in the synthetic turf sports flooring product. The product can provide a predictable playing surface which changes little with varying moisture and temperature changes during play, at least in part by avoiding the use of bonding chemicals in its structure. An underlay material of similar construction can be used in conjunction with the playing surface.
