Fisher High School Becomes First in Louisiana to Get FieldTurf Revolution
School officials at Fisher High School in New Orleans were looking for the newest cutting edge turf product on the market, and determined FieldTurf Revolution met that need after reviewing a long list of products available in the industry.
Lafitte, LA, July 08, 2011 --(PR.com)-- School emerges as new trend setter in the state of Louisiana as it chooses to install innovative ‘Revolution’ from FieldTurf.
Call it a first round knockout. School officials at Fisher High School in New Orleans were looking for the newest cutting edge turf product on the market, and determined FieldTurf Revolution met that need after reviewing a long list of products available in the industry. This will mark the first Revolution installation in the state of Louisiana, while paving the way for FieldTurf to leave its mark on high school football in the region.
When push came to shove, no other competing products could measure up to the longevity and performance that FieldTurf provides. Built-in safety features, long-term Ultimate Gmax stability, and the overall value that FieldTurf brings to the table made the difference. With regards to the stringent Ultimate Gmax lab testing that accurately portrays long-term impact attenuation, test results proved the FieldTurf system’s superior performance vs. competing systems when it came to replicating surface hardness/safety over the long-run – a critical factor of the school’s decision to choose FieldTurf.
FieldTurf’s world class professionalism and service played a large role in developing the relationship with Fisher High School, one that looks to extend over a long period of time.
“FieldTurf came in and immediately blew us away,” said Danny Hebert, P.E., President of Civil and Environmental Consulting Engineers and consultant on behalf of Fisher High School. “Not only did their Revolution product meet our expectations, the total package that FieldTurf offers in addition to their innovative product is impressive. All our research indicates FieldTurf Revolution is the safest product for the athletes and the most durable in all weather conditions. It was a no brainer!”
Through product innovation, state-of-the-art manufacturing and world-class installations, FieldTurf is capable of delivering superior performance enhancing artificial turf. Revolution was conceived using innovative polymer fiber technology, a precise manufacturing process, along with smart Geometry. Ridged fiber blades ensure the turf has a natural grass look to it, while delivering a product that’s durable and can withstand a large amount of usage. Mixed with the patented cryogenic rubber and silica sand infill, FieldTurf Revolution has been designed to be the industry’s most durable artificial turf system. With more and more schools beginning to take notice, Fisher High School was the first school in Louisiana to jump on board with the New Age of Artificial Turf and will reap the benefits for many years to come.
