Impact Attenuation testing in Windsor, Connecticut

All artificial playing surfaces in Windsor, Connecticut require gmax and HIC testing to ensure they comply with ASTM F1936 and therefore are not exposing users to unnecessary risks.

Gmax testing measures the impact attenuation of the surface, this shows the magnitude of force it’s capable of absorbing. The harder the surface, the higher the gmax rating. ASTM standard F1936 require surfaces to have a gmax rating no greater than 200g’s to be deemed safe for use.

Gmax testing should be carried out annually to ensure surface conditions and player safety are monitored effectively.
