Easigrass Dubai install the temporary football pitch on the Dubai Mall Ice rink
For the second year running Easigrass, the artificial grass company in Dubai were hired to install the temporary football pitch on the Dubai Mall Ice rink for the Finals of the Du Champs football competition.
The installation is very technical as the ice rink needs to be converted during the course of the night ready for the football matches to start first thing in the morning. The rolls of artificial grass are 4m wide and weigh close to half a tonne each so the logistics involved are quite considerable even before the installation begins.
Artificial grass is becoming increasingly popular for many sports including football, rugby and hockey as it is very low maintenance compared to natural grass. This installation shows how great it can look as well, even if it is just for a temporary event.
The Easigrass Team completed the installation in 7 hours this year which was one hour faster than the year before. The football pitch then had to be taken down the following night ready for the ice rink to begin operations again the following day.
A very long weekend for the Easigrass artificial grass team in Dubai but a great success.
