The premium system is easy to install and maintain for full field installations or to reinforce target areas with high wear.

The Xtreme interlock backing system features a high tuft lock and dimensional stability provided by woven technology that secures the yarns in place. The woven backing facilitates strong root integration for soil compaction prevention. It provides strong support for both the synthetic and natural grasses.
Act Global's first two Xtreme Grass pitches were completed in under four months.
Act Global's landscape line pairs the durability of sports turf with the striking aesthetics of fresh natural grass for a greater return on investment. Xtreme Lawn has been used for outdoor music festivals, golf turf, playground areas, batting cages, parks, home landscape, pet kennels, rooftops, apartments and hotels.
AvTurf is a branch of Act Global that focuses on its patented aviation turf. Its first installation was at Chicago Midway International Airport in 2000 and the installation is still in place today. Since then, Act Global has installed AvTurf at over 20 airports around the world, including the world's largest single area of aviation turf at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado, and the first ever logo using synthetic aviation turf at the Abu Dhabi International Airport in the United Arab Emirates.
