Molde FC Norway acquires Latest Benchmark in Football Turf – Greenfields MX Elite

TenCate Grass and GreenFields B.V. are proud to announce a further collaboration with Molde FC, Norway. The club have been playing Eliteserien league football on GreenFields MX Trimension with woven technology for the past 4 seasons, a product chosen at the time for its high level of performance, safety and player comfort and will in October 2017 replace their current surface with GreenFields MX Elite.

Following the 2015 announcement by FIFA in relation to improving and increasing the standards of its synthetic quality programme, Molde FC made the decision that, whilst the current product still meets the previous FIFA requirements, the club committed to investing in and keeping pace with the very latest standards set by the International federation and have decided to replace the playing surface with GreenFields MX Elite which has been credited to the latest FIFA standards. 

Furthermore, Molde FC have taken the time to investigate the latest innovation in regard to performance infill, and after detailed site and laboratory analysis around GreenFields sites in Europe have opted to update the infill material to TPE Holo, a product designed primarily with player safety and comfort in mind and resulting in a system that provides the highest player performance opportunities in the industry. The GreenFields MX Elite is the chosen system design for leading European clubs like Arsenal, Celtic, PEC Zwolle and Heracles Almelo and provides further assurance for the club that they are selecting and playing on the industries very highest synthetic system.

Michael Vogel, Group Director, TenCate Grass Holdings commented:

- The Norwegian market is a key strategic area for our company and Molde FC, having chosen our products again continues to sustain the very highest standards within the game of football in the region, we are extremely pleased that, having assisted the club with their detailed investigations for the very best standards, that the TenCate Grass group have been able to display our ability to provide yet another synthetic system in support of their desire to perform at the very highest level.
