Move More. Waste Less.

An artificial turf field that is due for replacement still contains valuable materials. By recycling it, the raw materials can be used again in products for sports facilities and public space.

Via GreenMatter, recycled artificial turf gets a new destination in, among other things, dugouts, modular sports surfaces, calisthenics equipment, and outdoor furniture. Materials that were previously part of a sports field are thus used again for sport and movement.

These applications show how, with Move more. Waste less., we create the link between stimulating movement and keeping raw materials in circulation for longer.

Modular sports floors offer various possibilities for arranging sports halls, school playgrounds, sports parks, and public sports facilities. Our range also includes circular sports floors that incorporate recycled artificial grass from worn-out sports fields.

The GreenMatter modular sports floor is made up of 50% recycled artificial grass and is suitable for various sports applications. Thanks to its modular design, sports locations can be set up flexibly, and individual floor sections can be replaced.

This is how we combine functional sports floors with the reuse of raw materials and give worn-out artificial grass a new application.

A circular sports park consists of more than just a playing field. The facilities around the field also offer opportunities to apply recycled materials. Think of dugouts, calisthenics setups, benches, bicycle parking systems, and other elements of the outdoor area.

With our circular solutions, we can reuse raw materials in different places within a sports park. For example, planks made of recycled artificial grass are used in dugouts, and recycled plastic components can be used for movement equipment.

By taking material use, service life, and future applications into account when setting up sports parks, circularity gets a concrete place within the sports environment.

Even when setting up play areas, Move more. Waste less. comes back. With our play equipment, we encourage children to play and move, while at the same time paying attention to the raw materials from which these devices are made.

Many play equipment from Westfalia is manufactured from recycled plastic, sourced from, among other things, used household packaging. A large part of the range carries the independent Blauer Engel eco-label. This label sets strict requirements for the environmental properties of products. The high share of recycled material is independently verified.

This is how we combine encouraging children to move with responsible material use and the reuse of existing raw materials.

Circularity goes further than processing recycled materials into new products. The service life, maintenance, and possibilities for reuse after the usage phase also play an important role.

That’s why, at W&H, we look at the full life cycle of sports and play products. Where possible, we focus on products with a long service life, replaceable components, and possibilities for reuse or recycling.

With, among other things, circular alternatives and our Take Back & Recycle service, we are working on ways to keep materials valuable for longer. Step by step, this helps us make the transition to a more circular layout of sports and play environments.

Move more. Waste less. is the mission of W&H, through which we connect encouraging sports and movement with handling raw materials responsibly. We create sports and play environments that invite people to be active, while also looking at ways to keep materials in circulation for longer. We do this, among other things, by offering circular sports products in which recycled raw materials are applied again.

Within our range, we offer various circular sports products, including modular sports floors, dugouts, calisthenics equipment, and stadium and grandstand seats with recycled materials. In addition, we supply play equipment made of recycled plastic and various solutions for the design of sports parks and public spaces. This allows clients to include circularity in a wide range of sports and play facilities.

Worn-out artificial grass pitches contain materials that, after processing, can serve again as raw materials. Via GreenMatter, recycled artificial grass is used in, among other things, sports floors, dugouts, calisthenics equipment, and outdoor furniture. This gives materials that are no longer suitable for their original application a new destination within sports facilities and public spaces.

Many play equipment items within our range are manufactured from recycled plastic, sourced from, among other things, used household packaging. A large part of Westfalia’s play equipment has the independent Blauer Engel eco-label, which sets strict requirements for the environmental properties of products. This is how we combine encouraging playing and movement with the reuse of valuable raw materials.

When building, renovating, or expanding a sports facility, you can take into account the origin, service life, and reusability of materials. Think of circular sports floors, dugouts with recycled artificial grass, or movement equipment in which recycled raw materials have been processed. W&H helps by selecting suitable solutions, so that circularity can become part of the design of your sports or play environment.
