Heat and UV exposure
Surface selection should consider local heat, UV exposure, operating hours and maintenance rather than assuming one sports-turf system suits every Australian climate.

Australia / ATHREN FIELD Sports Turf Systems
Australian synthetic-field projects vary sharply by state, climate, playing programme and maintenance model. ATHREN FIELD keeps hockey, football, rugby and shared-use pathways separate so heat, UV, drainage, infill strategy, impact requirements and current certification evidence can be reviewed against the actual project.
Why this market × product fit matters
Surface selection should consider local heat, UV exposure, operating hours and maintenance rather than assuming one sports-turf system suits every Australian climate.
Dry hockey, filled football, reduced-infill and selected non-infill pathways can be compared as complete systems once the required level of play is clear.
Rugby projects need the turf, infill, shockpad and finished-field testing pathway considered together where formal performance requirements apply.
Weekly loading, line-marking hierarchy, equipment storage, public access and maintenance capability should be included in the brief before the surface is selected.
Project brief
The better the brief, the faster the product, freight and documentation questions can be separated from local site work and approvals.
Common project questions
Apollo can review projects nationally, with suitability and freight confirmed against the actual state, postcode, exact system, quantity and project requirements.
ATHREN FIELD includes a selected non-infill pathway, but suitability depends on the exact current system, playing requirement, climate and maintenance model.
Yes, where the sport hierarchy and surface construction are compatible. The primary sport should control the most demanding performance requirement.
Those remain with the Australian project team unless expressly included elsewhere. Apollo's role is supply and product/document coordination.
Manual project quotation
Apollo reviews the selected product, freight pathway and available documentation. Pricing is prepared manually after the project details are checked.
