Tennis Court Surfaces
At Prograss we understand that a tennis court is an asset that adds value to your home or commercial centre. It is our aim to provide high quality surfaces that you "want" to play on, resulting in years of personal enjoyment for both the novice and competitive player.
There have been significant technological advancements in the plastics and manufacturing processes over the past seven years. This has resulted in the design and manufacture of a new generation of tennis products and without doubt, Australia is at the forefront with research and development of synthetic grass across the entire sporting spectrum.
All of our tennis courts are made-to-order with integrated line marking in a kit format to reduce seaming and are designed to allow play on the fibre tips not the sand infill. Our tennis court surfaces require a settling in period during which the sand should compact just below the top of the yarn blade and should be maintained at this level for the life of the court. If additional sports are to be incorporated then these lines are manufactured in co-ordinating colours and cut in.
When selecting your surface you should ascertain the type of play you require. Courts with more sand tend to be slower (particularly when dry). During dry weather sand is prone to loosen and come to the surface. Shorter denser pile products such as Grandprix and Protour tend to be quicker as the ball is coming off the grass rather than the sand.
Our surfaces are designed to be installed over concrete, asphalt or compacted road base. The latter construction method is extremely popular in areas where the cost of concrete/asphalt is prohibitive.
Apart from the comprehensive range of surfaces outlined below, we can provide tailor-made products to suit individual customer's needs, including all tennis accessories.
