Bernhard's Sports Surfaces

Water Filled Pitches

Surface
Unfilled or waterbased surfaces are currently mandatory for the final stages of Hockey competitions such as World Championships and Olympic events. The pure textile surfaces are irrigated and kept wet to control ball speed and help provide the other playing characteristics required at this level of Hockey.

Manufactured from either Nylon or polyethylene fibre, the extremely dense short pile carpets are loose laid over a suitable shockpad layer and secured at the edges with a galvanised steel channel with clamp strip.

Shockpad
Not commonly designed for multi-sport use, a waterbased surface is generally laid over a shockpad that reduces dynamic forces and helps provide the other playing characteristics required at this level of Hockey.

Civil Engineering
Our standard base specification is 300mm consolidated depth of suitable granular material with two layers of open textured macadam. However, the civil engineering element of the facility will be designed specifically for you having considered all the site characteristics.

Examples of waterbased surface installations:

Old Loughtonians Hockey Club	1999
Surbiton Hockey Club	2001
