Terraplas products appeared in a number of articles in PanStadia (the international journal for the sports & entertainment facility industry) from 2003 to the present day which you can view here.
Just a few comments from some of our satisfied customers around the world…
“This is a move we anticipated [purchase of a Turf Protection System] when we were planning the Stadium [Home Depot Center] and have continued to research and test all of the alternatives on the market, until we determined that TERRAFLOR® would be the best product for us.
The TERRAFLOR® system was put to the test this month with two sold-out concerts starring the Dave Matthews Band playing the Stadium for two nights, immediately following The Cure’s appearance.”
Not only does TERRAFLOR® protect the Stadium grass better than any other product on the market, it locks together and overlaps, making a floor that is outstanding for our concert guests as well as a great work surface for the production and operations staff.”
- Lee Zeidman, Senior Vice President of Operations, Anschutz Entertainment Group,
owners of Home Depot Center, Carson California.
AEG’s Home Depot Center is home to 2 MLS Teams, ‘Los Angeles Galaxy’ and ‘C.D. Chivas USA’, as well as being the national training center for US soccer.
“We had to find a cover system that would support thousands of people, take the weight and pressure of forklifts, Cherrypickers, staging, trucks etc., and not allow any liquid to penetrate the turf - TERRACOVER® has proved to be the answer!”
- Rick Nafe, VP of Operations/Facilities for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays at Tropicana Field.
“Mr. Kulianov, head of the marketing department, said that he could not even imagine what could be if they had choosen another type of ice decking system. Very easy and fast for installation. This part of the equipment never stops or delay the transformation process. He has no any problems with TERRACOVER. Arena is transformed about four times per month.”
- Spokesman, Arena 2000.
“We are very happy with our purchase of TERRACOVER®, in particular it gives us very rapid turn-arounds, from ice-hockey to exhibitions, shows, concerts etc. and back again. This gives us the ability to be truly multi-functional, increase our utilisation and thereby our profitability.
“The other major benefit is that due to the fact that fork-lifts and the cherry-picker can be used on the TERRACOVER® we require fewer staff and it is far less straining. During April 2002 the London Arena had TERRACOVER® in place for over three months for a ‘back-to-back’ series of exhibitions and shows.
“I can thoroughly recommend the TERRACOVER® product to any ice stadium that needs to be multi-functional.”
- Alex McCrindle, General Manager of the London Arena.
“The TERRAFLOR® system we purchased … allows us to play a soccer game on a Saturday night and have 27,000 people for a concert on a Sunday afternoon!”
- John Wagner of the Hunt Sports Group, owners of Pizza Hut Park, Frisco, Texas.
“After 10 days there was no damage.”
“30,000 people on the field… Nobody slipped or fell despite every type of fluid you could imagine on it.”
“The field looks great thanks to the product.”
- Peter Cronin, Grounds Manager, Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane.
“TERRAFLOR® was put under all of stage, front-of-house & delay towers… The field covering was the best I have ever worked on.”
commented Hendrik Verdeyen of Stageco.
“Robbie Williams’ Site Manager stated that it is the best product he has ever seen.”
- Peter Cronin, Grounds Manager.
