Drainage Systems

Sportfix Rome

The specialist drainage system for artificial turf hockey pitches — engineered for grip, stability and long-term performance.

Hockey pitches demand precision: fast play, consistent surface conditions and perfectly secured turf edges that won’t move under high-intensity action. Traditional drainage systems often fail to lock artificial turf safely in place – leading to puckering, tripping hazards and costly maintenance interruptions.

Sportfix Rome solves that with a purpose-built drainage channel designed specifically for unfilled artificial turf systems on hockey pitches.

Using the innovative GUGI-Mesh composite grating, the turf is simply laid into the channel and clamped securely using two locking handles per metre. No tensioning required. No complicated on-site adjustments. Just a clean, reliable edge detail that holds the turf firmly in place throughout every sprint, pivot and impact.

Available in multiple channel heights and built from robust Recyfix recycled composite, Sportfix Rome provides both exceptional drainage performance and long-term turf stability, even under heavy weather conditions and continuous gameplay.
