Basingstoke Hockey Club made history this summer by being the first club in the UK to install the Poligras Paris GT zero turf from Polytan GmbH, and we were delighted to be part of the project. Poligras Paris GT zero turf is the world’s first carbon zero hockey turf and has been FIH Innovation-certified for dry hockey. The surface marked a massive milestone in sustainable sports infrastructure. Let’s take a look back at the finished result of the project back in August. Amazing work from everyone involved and the team at Polytan. #hockey #hockeypitch Poligras Hockey Turfs, SAPCA The Sports and Play Construction Association, Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council
