Fytofoam®

Fytofoam®'s great water-holding ability and air permeability ensure a gradual release of the nutrients and the water absorbed. These factors have an extremely positive effect on germination and also encourage faster and finer rooting. As well as creating a splendid and even growth, this improves the self-restoring capability of the turf. In other words, with Fytofoam® you will have finer and better results and reduced water and electricity costs.
Fytofoam® can be applied on soccer pitches and golf courses either by incorporating it into root zones during construction thereby achieving the ideal growing environment for quality turf grasses, or during resurfacing or routine maintenance.

Field and Layer Application

The construction method comprises the application of a 2-3 cm layer of foam from a portable mixing machine. Or by spreading the Fytofoam® flakes over the field, and incorporated directly. Once the material has set the foam can be easily worked into the upper rootzone top layer with the use of a rotavator.

  Whole sportsfields being constructed and renovated use Hydrocell®. But high wear areas such as goal squares, baseball diamonds, turf car parks, central corridors of soccer fields all suffer from regular heavy foot traffic.
  Fytofoam® reduces compaction and accelerates root development to enable high wear areas to be quicker at repairing and more foot traffic tolerant.

  In 2005, Fytogreen Australia developed a small version of the large sportsfield slit injection unit for restricted access sites where the large unit could not venture. It has proved popular with developers as a viable method of improving the establishment and sustainability of turf nature strips.

  Introduced into the root zone of grassed areas, the open cell structure readily absorbs water and nutrients, retaining them so that the grass can access them when required. It also retains at least 37% air - vital for good grass growth. Read More

• Slits
  Fytofoam®, injected into slits 15 cm apart, is able to hold 60% by volume of water. The foam slits also created channels where excess water can drain through evenly to the drainage layer beneath.
