The future of sports grounds is already out on the pitch

25 June 2026

Circular solutions are being given a prominent place in an increasing number of sports grounds. From sports surfaces and dugouts to benches, kerbs and embankment revetments: there are many places within a sports ground where recycled materials from worn-out artificial turf pitches are given a new lease of life.

With GreenMatter, we demonstrate how existing sports grounds can be redesigned, step by step, to be more future-proof. Not just with ideas for the future, but specifically with real-world projects that have already been implemented. By reusing materials, circularity takes concrete form at sports grounds, and these solutions align with the Netherlands’ ambitions for 2030 and 2050.

That is why we have developed the Sports Park of the Future: an inspirational environment where you can see all the possibilities within a modern, sustainable and circular sports park.
