AstroTurf
Despite many independent studies, some users are reluctant to accept a common turf system component: crumb rubber. The Golden Series from AstroTurf features no rubber. Instead, these systems feature a shock pad and an extremely dense pile — at least three times denser than AstroTurf's next-heaviest system. For ballast and cooling, AstroTurf adds ZeoFill, which absorbs 81 percent of its weight in water and evaporates over time. The Golden Series is a solution for clients seeking high performance and durability in non-controversial turf systems.

M.A.S.A.
The Eraser mat grooms fields even in adverse, damp soil conditions, with very little material left in the mat. Its lightweight design makes it easy for any groundskeeper, coach or player to use and transport. As the drag mat is pulled, it percolates and dries infield material, giving the field a professional finish. In addition, the Eraser mat will not harm grass, the pitching rubber or home plate if inadvertent contact occurs. Available in 3-, 5- and 6 ½-foot widths, Eraser is flexible, easy to roll and unroll, and can even be driven over without causing damage.
