Services Synthetic Turf: A modern standard

Synthetic turf systems have become the preferred choice for many sports facilities, including football, hockey, and rugby pitches, due to their excellent performance, high resilience, and climate resistance. Despite new regulations emphasizing environmental and climate friendliness, manufacturers continue to innovate and adapt their products and construction methods. To ensure safety and optimal playability, synthetic turf surfaces must meet stringent standards and are rigorously tested both before market launch and during regular inspections.

Services Modernizing Existing Sports Facilities with Confidence

Many sports facilities in Germany are in need of refurbishment, yet it can be challenging to determine whether they still meet current safety standards. ISP GmbH offers comprehensive inspection and testing services - including mass balancing - to accurately assess both surface and underlying layers. Our expert advice helps clarify the scope of necessary refurbishments and the environmental considerations for recycling old materials.

Services High-Performance synthetic surfaces for outdoor sports

Synthetic surfaces for outdoor sports areas extend beyond standard football pitches to include track and field facilities, tennis courts, and multi-purpose mini-pitches. These surfaces are engineered for optimal performance, durability, and safety, ensuring an excellent sports experience while minimizing injury risks. Strict standards such as DIN EN 14877 and DIN 18035-6, along with World Athletics specifications, guarantee that each surface meets high-quality and safety requirements.

Services Excellence in Gym and Sports Hall Safety

Gyms and sports halls have been a cornerstone of school and club sports since the late 19th century, accommodating a wide range of athletic activities. While these facilities share a similar basic design, variations in flooring, walls, and ceilings reflect their specific user needs and safety requirements. Adhering to rigorous standards ensures that these environments offer both optimal performance and protection for all users.

Services Ensuring safety against ball impacts in sports halls

Sports halls host a wide range of dynamic activities where balls are thrown, hit, or kicked at high speeds, posing risks to both equipment and athletes. Every fixture - from lamps and loudspeakers to display panels and clocks - must be tested to ensure it withstands these impacts in accordance with DIN 18032-1 and DIN 18032-3.

Services Ensuring safe childrens playgrounds

The safety of our children is paramount, especially on playgrounds where they spend a significant amount of time. Over the past 40 years, strict standards have been established to ensure that all playground surfaces - whether sand, bark mulch, wood chips, impact protection tiles, in-situ impact protection, or synthetic turf - effectively prevent critical injuries.
