The past
12-months has seen MJ Abbott complete a number of hybrid pitch re-constructions
in the UK and Europe across football and rugby.
In 2015 SIS Grass
was introduced to the turf market and the popularity of the new hybrid surface
has continued into this year, with MJ Abbott the principle company to prepare
surfaces ready for stitching by the machines in the UK.
Newcastle
United has installed SIS Grass at St James’ Park with Championship Sides
Reading and Birmingham City also installing the system at their respective
stadia.
Projects were also completed at the training home of Paris
Saint Germain, seeing the installation of the HERO hybrid carpet turf system within
two training pitches and the match pitch.
Rugby was also on the agenda with Doncaster Knights RFC
re-constructing their Castle Park pitch to facilitate the installation of an
Eclipse hybrid carpet turf system, provided by County Turf.
Away
from team sports, there has also been several golf projects undertaken,
including being appointed as the main contractors for Royal Norwich’s
£4.5million new course project.
The
company also worked on the extremely well received multi-million-pound facelift
of the West Course at Wentworth for the BMW PGA, which received rave reviews
from players and pundits alike.
