Reliable Information.

Honest Answers.

As the popularity of synthetic turf grows around the world, so does the need for accurate information about it.  At the Synthetic Turf Council, it's our goal to provide straightforward answers to questions about the performance, safety and environmental impact of synthetic turf systems.

For buyers and end-users, we provide a significant library of independent research about synthetic turf, along with guidance on how to select, use and maintain synthetic turf in sports fields, golf and landscape applications.  For members, we offer the opportunity to network, build business and participate in a certification program that attests to a proven record of successful product and service delivery and a commitment to responsible and ethical business conduct.

We hope that you find what you are looking for here.  If you have additional questions, please contact us and we will do our best to answer them for you.
