The filter fabric extends to each side, in opposite directions, to ensure joints cover securely.

Enka®Flex: Shockpad & Drainage Underlay Hybrid for Artificial SurfacesEnkaFlex was developed to be firm, with significant energy restitution and natural play feel. It additionally performs the doubleduty of full field drainage for artificial fields. Comprised of a flexible 3D core with filter fabric thermally bonded on one or both sides, EnkaFlex is engineered for use under sandfilled artificial turf. It may also be used on a dynamic base and with any type of tufted artificial turf for a variety of sports including hockey, soccer and football.

Sports and recreation activities speak a global language. They exist across all cultures, economies, ages, genders and venues. With fields and courses doubling as venues for both sports and nonsports events becoming a standard practice, maintenance efforts and requirements have significantly increased. Oversaturated turf, both natural and synthetic, causes costly downtime from revised schedules and unexpected maintenance. Too often they are also a safety concern and at best are sorely inconvenient for everyone involved. We have proven solutions.
