Field hockey artificial pitches are high quality surfaces for professional level practice. The perfect evenness and flexibility of the artificial turf pitch proves to be ideal for ensuring accurate shots and passes, whilst the drainage capacity ensures the ideal surface moisture needed for a fast game.
The special products developed by Limonta for high-level practice of this sport have gained approval of the International Hockey Federation (FIH).
In collaboration with the Italian Hockey Federation Limonta Sport has also developed two systems that respect both the FIH and FIFA standards, creating the first systems approved for both football and hockey.

NEWGRASS HOCKEY
NEWGRASS HOCKEY, developed by Limonta, is the best surface on the market for both indoor and outdoor pitches used in this sport. In fact, the material used in Newgrass has intrinsic properties that also make it a perfect product for indoor use.
Newgrass is available in the traditional sand infill version, without infill or with the use of a lightweight sand filler. The unclogged surfaces ensure perfect levelling, high flexibility, vibrant and consistent colours.
The Newgrass products for hockey have different drainage capacities and maintain the surface moisture necessary for high level competitions.
