New industry-leading machine from SIS Pitches used for the first time at FC Barcelona

Two years after revolutionising the hybrid grass market with the fully electric SIS Grass Hybrid Universal machine, SIS Pitches and SIS Grass Hybrid are proud to announce the launch of their second generation SIS Grass Hybrid machine, which is also 100% electric. The machine can stitch a full-size football pitch in just 7 days using electricity, a huge step forward in reducing the company’s environmental footprint.

SIS Pitches are the first to use this type of technology in their large machines, and are seeing huge benefits already, with installations completed at FC Barcelona’s training ground, followed by Camp Nou.

With over 18 years’ experience working with the biggest names in sport, SIS Grass Hybrid has been used at every major tournament in the last few years including the Europa League finals, UEFA Champions League, 2018 World Cup and the upcoming 2019 Rugby World Cup.

SIS Grass Hybrid is a 95% natural grass pitch that has the characteristics of a natural pitch, with synthetic fibres inserted into the surface, offering more playing hours and faster pitch recovery than 100% natural surfaces. SIS Grass Hybrid uses cutting edge laser systems to guarantee 100% accuracy when injecting fibres uniformly over the entire pitch.

Our new machines are using electricity to install our SIS Grass Hybrid product, which makes it more efficient, quicker and quieter. SIS Grass Hybrid pitches are installed with the best quality materials and accuracy available on the market, as well as being able to stitch much faster than other machines. This 100% electric machine is the next step for us and we’re really pleased to be one of the first in the industry to offer this technology in our larger machines.

Ivo Lamot, Managing Director, SIS Grass

This is another step in our drive to innovate and deliver technology that significantly reduces our carbon footprint.

George Mullan, CEO, SIS Pitches
