SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE

Beyond the Surface:
Elite Sports Engineering

Where others see only grass, we see a biomechanical system.

At Hera Sports, safety is not an accident—it is the direct result of rigorous engineering focused on three critical pillars: Deceleration, Rotational Traction, and Energy Restitution

Advanced Impact Attenuation (G-Max Control)

  • Shock Pad Integration: We don’t rely solely on infill. We utilize latest-generation elastic layers that maintain a constant G-Max value for over 10 years, preventing the field from hardening over time.

​

  • Brain Protection: Our systems are optimized to reduce the HIC (Head Injury Criterion), drastically decreasing the severity of impact during accidental falls.

  • Controlled Release: We engineer fiber density to allow the athlete’s foot to rotate and release naturally, mimicking the behavior of natural grass roots.

​

  • Non-Abrasive Fibers: We use low-friction polymers that eliminate turf burns, allowing for more aggressive play without skin injuries.

Thermal Performance & Playability

  • Heat Management: Thanks to our Organic Infills, we reduce surface temperatures by up to 20°C compared to traditional SBR rubber, preventing heat exhaustion and premature athlete fatigue.

​

  • Energy Return: A surface that is too soft exhausts the player; one that is too hard injures them. Our fields are calibrated to return the right amount of energy in every stride, improving sprint times and reducing muscle strain.
