Fine Turf
A traditional greens top dressing, ideal with organic based fertiliser programmes and when more ‘body’ is required in the dressing. These blends are designed to provide high levels of percolation whilst also increasing CEC (Cation Exchange Capacity).
- Soil is heat sterilised meaning no weed seeds or pathogens
- Premium sand is used in all fine turf dressing
- Sub-angular to sub-rounded grain sand so maintaining balance for soil moisture percolation and retention
- Consistent, independently tested at STRI
- Regular in-house testing
- Choose your own sand/sterilised soil ratio*
