Before construction begins, professional site evaluation and technical planning play a critical role in the overall success of the project.
Many long-term field problems are not caused by the turf itself but by insufficient planning during the early stages. Poor drainage performance, uneven surfaces, premature wear, or maintenance difficulties often originate from an incomplete site assessment.
For international projects, especially, technical planning must consider factors such as local climate conditions, rainfall levels, soil structure, sub-base conditions, drainage requirements, and local construction regulations. Different countries and regions may require completely different technical solutions.
A drainage system suitable for one environment may not perform properly under tropical rainfall conditions. Similarly, installation methods that work well in one market may need adjustment due to different local construction conditions or equipment limitations.
Engineering for extremes—tailored sub-base and material adaptation for the FIFA pitch in the high-altitude, high-UV plateau environment of Lhasa, Tibet (left), and the tropical, corrosive marine climate of the Maldives (right).
This capability for tailored technical planning has been fully validated across our extreme project case studies. In the construction of the FIFA pitch in the Maldives, our team focused heavily on overcoming the challenges of a highly volatile, humid, and corrosive marine climate, safeguarding the system’s lifespan by upgrading material weather resistance. Meanwhile, in delivering the Lhasa Mass Culture and Sports Center project in Tibet, we successfully navigated an extreme plateau environment characterized by high altitude, low atmospheric pressure, intense UV radiation, and freezing, unpredictable weather, completely adapting our installation techniques and sub-base compatibility.
Early-stage planning directly affects the long-term stability and lifespan of the facility. In many cases, solving technical issues before construction is far easier and more cost-effective than correcting problems after installation has already started.
