The technology of synthetic turf continues to migrate closer to matching and improving upon natural grass. Major synthetic turf manufacturers such as California Ultimate Turf's (CUT) leading manufacturing partner, Tiger Turf, actually work closely with raw material suppliers to develop the most beneficial products for the intended application. CUT and its manufacturing partners also work with the end users to understand even the minute details of how synthetic turf interacts during its intended uses. This combination leads to more appropriately developed, tested and applied synthetic turf utilization.

Through California Ultimate Turf's engineering legacy, solutions are crafted with the right balance of infill strategy, blade materials and installation processes.


Fiber composition, weave and volume all contribute to creating turf solutions with various levels of rigidity, resiliency and durability. The actual materials that comprise the blades of synthetic turf—the monofilament, fiber and other materials—are crafted specifically for the turf's intended use and environment.

Landscape products - intended for light foot traffic and beautification—those that most likely aren’t tread upon; athletic uses—higher use environments; and multi-use/hybrid solutions, all require a different blade composition to meet the situational needs and get the most out of the synthetic turf solution.

California Ultimate Turf works closely with our manufacturing partner to develop the best product for the specific use. The results are a new generation of synthetic turf that looks and feels even more like natural grass, creating seamless solutions for a variety of uses.


The infill strategy and manner in which it's installed are also critical to a successful synthetic turf solution. The infill, in conjunction with an appropriate drainage option (either drain matt or drain rock) are designed to enhance cushioning, drainage, and leveling of the turf. In turn, creating a synthetic turf solution with consistent cushioning without the shifting found with natural grass. The increased resiliency and stability prevent many injuries that develop on natural grass fields.

Our infill options are comprised of recycled rubber. Depending on the application, the proper infill will be applied to create the necessary cushioning, playability, drainage and even temperature control that a project might require.

Some lower-impact areas, without the anticipated pounding the surface and cushioning higher-traffic locations would take, can forego an infill strategy and utilize one of CUT's non-infill products.


With various infill strategies and numerous turf environments, the installation process makes a significant impact in the success of the synthetic turf solution. This is where California Ultimate Turf and the Total Turf Solution adds a specific benefit to your project. Our heritage and years as a construction company are at the forefront of every project so we understand the importance of site planning and drainage for these projects as well.

A successful installation is dependent on this thorough understanding of and experience with drainage applications. This is essential in helping a turf solution retain its look, feel and durability. Perhaps equally importance, it also extends its life and use.

It's important to understand not only how to install the solution, but how it integrates with the existing—and future—surrounding details. CUT brings exemplary engineering prowess to the process to deliver a lasting solution for whichever environment you have.
