World’s first non-plastic artificial grass for play

SAPCA member, Notts Sport, has launched CocoTurf, the world’s first non-plastic artificial turf made entirely from natural coconut fibres. The product aims to offer a sustainable, eco-friendly solution for playgrounds and recreational spaces, combining durability, performance and environmental responsibility.

Notts Sport says it wants to “redefine the concept of artificial turf” by eliminating the use of plastics, microplastics and per-and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), all while maintaining the high standards of performance and safety expected from play surfaces.

The materials used in CocoTurf are entirely natural and non-toxic, providing a safer option for outdoor play without the environmental concerns typically associated with artificial turf.
