Decreased disruption

Pitch Construction

TenCate Ecocept® reduces the construction complexity of the base layer. Ecocept functions as an integrated sub-base enhancement, shockpad and water management system. A 3-in-1 solution, reducing the need for extensive excavation and disposal of existing foundations.

Quick and easy

Up to 300 truckload movements can be saved
Less disruption to surrounding facilities and neighbours
Can be used as part of a porous or non-porous base solution
Non-porous foundations use less aggregate materials and require less complex drainage
Alternative construction methods, such as soil stabilisation are possible
Utilisation of materials already found on site
Reduced weather dependency

TenCate Ecocept® Features

Improving sports performance

TenCate Ecocept® is a multi-functional sports layer, paved directly onto the sports pitch foundation. The core of Ecocept development is to improve sports performance, safety and longevity.

Cost efficiency

The benefits of an Ecocept layer are multi-functional: TenCate Ecocept® offers a warranty period of 20 years, and the design and construction of Ecocept is simplified, leading to an increased efficiency and reduced cost.

Environmental benefits

Given the growth of synthetic turf pitches in the past 20 years, the volumes of surfaces coming to the end of their life is increasing. This issues of sustainability in sports construction has never been so prominent.
