DESSO GrassMaster is a patented technology consisting of a 100% natural grass field in which synthetic fibres are injected 18 cm into the ground and 2 cm apart. This results in 20 million synthetic fibres which strengthen the field. However, the exciting part of the system is under the grass. The natural grass roots grow around the synthetic fibres and anchor the grass to provide a stable and flat playing surface.
“Last year, we installed Desso GrassMaster at Old Trafford. We’re obviously delighted that such a famous club as Manchester United opts again for Desso pitches for its training fields. This is an acknowledgement of the performance of Desso GrassMaster.”
Marc Vercammen, General Manager at Desso Sports

In the Dutch premier division, AZ plays its home games on this system. The famous, multifunctional Wembley stadium which is home to the English national team also has it. Furthermore, Desso GrassMaster fields have also been installed in the new, hypermodern training complex of the English FA (St. George's Park).
