As is so often the case, when it comes to sports and games it is personal values that count. Accordingly, it is precisely in this connection that with its kinea shock pads the foam specialist NEVEON sets new standards.
kinea.turf shock pads form a durable, elastic and shock-absorbent layer, which either between the sub-base and artificial turf, or underneath indoor sports floors, is used to protect athletes and increase playing comfort.
From hockey to rugby and football, kinea.turf shock pads underpin specific, sports-related properties such as excellent ball bounce, while simultaneously protecting athletes from injury and thus enhancing performance and playing enjoyment. Moreover, kinea shock pads not only score on the pitch! For in the kinea.play version they are also employed as fall protection mats in children‘s playgrounds.
Fair competition and a fair environmental concept NEVEON is convinced that the future bears the name “circular economy”. This is because if today‘s generation wishes to leave behind a future worth living in, a transition from a linear to a circular economic system is essential. Future-oriented is a system in which at the end of their life cycle products serve as valuable raw materials and as the starting point for new products. For this reason, NEVEON has placed the topic of the circular economy, which for the foam experts already begins with product development, alongside emission reduction at the forefront of its activities.
kinea shock pads: safety partners for two to three artificial turf lifetimes NEVEON‘s kinea shock pads have an extremely long service life and retain their properties throughout the entire product life cycle. With their 16-year warranty, kinea shock pads can be used for at least two to three artificial turf lifetimes. Moreover, if for example owing to a switch to a new artificial turf system with altered requirements the shock pads have to be replaced sooner, or when they reach the end of their life span, they can be reused, recycled or recovered.
