Artificial surface safety testing in Cortez, Colorado

Surface Performance are an independent testing laboratory with technicians based in Colorado accredited to carry out gmax and HIC testing.

All artificial surfaces should be tested biannually to ensure they are not exposing users to unnecessary risks when using the surface. When a player collides with the surface the impact generated is either absorbed by the player or the surface. If the surface is too hard it would return excessive impact on the player, increasing the risks of sustaining an injury to an unacceptable level. If a surface has a gmax rating of over 200g’s it would be deemed unsafe for use due to it being too hard.
