They are low-maintenance, long-lasting, and remarkably safe for people, pets, and the environment—a total game-changer for your turf system.
There’s no shortage of applications for artificial turf that uses Safeshell infill, from in the backyard and around the pool to shared recreational spaces. Safeshell’s toughness, durability and naturally cooling properties make it a great fit for the sports field, while its allergen and toxin-free status make it a perfectly safe pick for the playground too.
Safeshell SmoothPlay is our latest innovation in infills that is cooler, with less friction and high durability. Due to its fine granular size, it settles easily into dense turf systems, and is recommended for soccer, baseball, and American football.

What our clients say
In the first six months, Safeshell has lived up to our expectations as being low-maintenance, durable, and safe. All of the parents’ questions surrounding the topic of Safeshell and allergens were answered thoroughly. No issues have surfaced since the athletes have been playing on the field. The three words we would use to describe our experience with Safeshell in the first six months are: it’s natural, easy and dependable.
We love our infield with Safeshell infill. The ball reacts with the surface much more like traditional dirt and helps reduce the bounce as compared to rubber infill. Our athletes have played on several different surfaces, and they feel ours is one of the best.
