The unique properties of Joosten Refoam shock pads

EPP: strong, durable and excellent energy absorbtion

The Joosten Refoam shock pads are made of EPP (Expanded Polypropylene). This closed cell material has some unique features that make it the ideal shock absorbing underlay. EPP excels at absorbing energy, has a high impact resistance and is exceptionally strong in proportion to its weight. Additionally, it is resistant to many chemicals and provides thermal insulation. Moreover, EPP is fully recyclable. Renowned international studies show that EPP is the best material for shock pads.

High quality and environmentally friendly shock pads.

The shock pads are manufactured in an environmentally friendly way. For example, no fluorinated or chlorinated hydrocarbons are used in the process. To guarantee the high quality of the shock pads, the production process is monitored according to the exceedingly strict DIN ISO16949 standards.

 

Controlled raw materials, no chance of environmental damage.

Our shock pads are produced in an environmentally friendly way. For example, no fluorinated or chlorinated hydrocarbons (FCHCs) are used. The shock pads consist of recycled EPP as much as possible. Both the new and recycled EPP come from controlled raw material flows, are clean and do not contain any environmentally unfriendly substances.

 

A more than one Well thought-out design.

In designing the Joosten Refoam shock pads, a lot of thought has gone into the function, the user-friendliness and the required sport technical properties of an artificial turf system.

There are a number of typical characteristics of the Joosten Refoam shock pads:
aABs Design Horizontal Stable
flexible slot connection

The shock pads have been designed for quick and easy installation. On the long side, the sheets are connected by means of a flexible slot connection. The connections have been designed in such a way that there is sufficient leeway to deal with extreme temperature changes.

aABs Design Horizontal Drainage
vertical and horizontal drainage

A traditional artificial turf pitch, for example a football pitch, has a vertical permeable substructure with drainage pipes discharging the rainwater horizontally. There is a cheaper alternative: Joosten Refoam shock pads. Since the shock pads feature horizontal drainage channels, they allow the run-off of enormous quantities of water. This obviates the need for separate drainage pipes, so the costs of the overall construction are lower.

aABs Design Easy
strong dovetail connection

The shock pads have been designed for quick and easy installation. On the long side, the sheets are connected by means of grooves. The short sides connect in the way jigsaw pieces do. The connections have been designed in such a way that there is sufficient leeway to deal with extreme temperature changes.

aABs Design Transport
optimum load of lorry and container

For easy transportation of the sheets, the Joosten Refoam shock pads have been designed so that they can be stacked into each other. Consequently, more plates fit into a container or lorry than is usual in the case of plates with a similar thickness.

The Joosten Refoam shock pad benefits.

Joosten Refoam shock pads allow you to create an artificial turf pitch that meets the demands of all parties, from the contractor to the owner to the sportsman or woman. The shock absorbing underlay meets all sport technical requirements for optimum performance and pleasure, and yet the shock pads are affordable and durable. When the artificial grass is worn out and needs to be replaced, the Joosten Refoam shock pads can remain.
