GreenCreation LLC now an authorized rep up with TigerTurf
GREENSBORO, NC — GreenCreation, based here, distributes TigerTurf and designs, installs and maintains all levels of sports fields and commercial and residential landscape systems.
“We got started with this business and TigerTurf when we sought to address a safety and aesthetics issue for the Department of Transportation. TigerTurf developed a great solution, we love the product and the people and with them, our business has really taken off,” said Gary Bradley, GreenCreation’s vice president of sales and marketing.
“We anticipate it will continue to grow rapidly, as we’ve got terrific ingenuity and support through TigerTurf, and we’re now creating a network of quality dealer and installation partners so we can deliver TigerTurf synthetic grass to a wider array of customers throughout the southeast,” added Bradley.
Among GreenCreation’s numerous TigerTurf projects is a new one for the company: a futsal field, which was installed earlier this month for the Futsal Factory in downtown Charlotte. GreenCreation worked with TigerTurf to develop a surface with specific characteristics to support futsal, a variation of soccer most often played indoors with a special, low-balance ball.
Some of the first athletes on the system will be the Mexican National Futsal team, which will practice on the new surface prior to their 2010 World Cup Friendly Match.
Greencreation serves customers throughout the southeastern U.S. and Caribbean. In late January, 2010, the company’s TigerTurf playground solution was featured on ABC Television’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
