The surfaces that last are the ones that get maintained.
SignatureCare™ is Australia's leading professional maintenance program for synthetic turf and sports surfaces.
THE PROBLEM
Synthetic turf is not set and forget.
Most organisations install a synthetic surface and consider the job done. It isn't. Without a planned maintenance program, deterioration follows a predictable path. Fibres fold over and become trapped within compacted infill. Infill migrates from high-use areas. Organic contamination accumulates. Seams weaken. Surface hardness increases.
The result is a decline in safety, playability, and asset life, turning a 10-12 year investment into a surface that performs like one at year six.
Without maintenance
- Fibres fold over and become encapsulated by compacted infill. Reduced traction increases injury risk.
- Infill migrates from high-use areas. Uneven footing and exposed seams develop.
- Algae and moss establish within the surface. Slippery conditions become a safety concern.
- Seam failures create trip hazards. Liability exposure increases.
- Surface hardness rises beyond acceptable thresholds. Head injury and concussion risks increase.
- Manufacturer maintenance requirements are not met. Warranty protection may be voided.

The Process
How SignatureCare™ Works
Five steps. One team. Complete visibility.
Inspect
Every program begins with a site visit and a Surface Asset Condition Audit, documenting surface condition, type, usage frequency, and everything needed to design a program that fits your facility from day one.
Design
Using the Asset report and sport code recommendations, the SignatureCare™ team designs a tailored Planned Preventative Maintenance Program — every task, its frequency, and who is responsible, customised to your surface, usage and budget.
Execute
All services are delivered by in-house SignatureCare™ surface technicians, trained and equipped specifically for synthetic surface maintenance. Every visit is completed to a documented standard.
Record
Full documentation at every visit — Scheduled Maintenance Activity Reports, Completion Reports, Usage Logs, and a complete maintenance history. Managed via our customer portal for real-time access to every service record.
Analyse & Improve
Continuous improvement is built into the program. The SignatureCare™ team keeps clients updated with research outcomes, proactive recommendations, and early identification of issues before they become problems.

How fortnightly maintenance added four+ years to a FIFA-certified field.
Three FIFA-certified pitches, an AFL oval, an FIH hockey pitch, an IAAF athletics track, and 12 cricket nets. Fortnightly SignatureCare™ maintenance in place since installation day.
All FIFA pitches certified to FIFA Quality. FIH pitch certified to Multisport. IAAF track to National Standard. 1,200+ tonnes of product diverted from landfill at end of lifespan.
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on usage intensity. A school oval used six days a week typically requires fortnightly maintenance. Lower-traffic facilities may suit a 6-monthly program. SignatureCare™ designs each program around your actual usage data, not a generic schedule.
Fibres compact, infill migrates, seams fail, and surface hardness exceeds safe thresholds. The result is shorter lifespan, increased injury risk, voided warranty, and significantly higher long-term costs.
Yes. Most manufacturers require documented maintenance to honour warranty claims. Without a recorded program, a claim on a failing surface is likely to be rejected. SignatureCare™ provides the complete documentation trail required.
Yes. SignatureCare™ is available for any synthetic turf, acrylic court, or rubber surface regardless of who installed it. We begin with a Comprehensive Dilapidation Report to assess current condition.
Gmax measures surface hardness against ASTM F355 standards; the benchmark for safe impact performance on synthetic surfaces. Poorly maintained turf regularly fails Gmax testing, creating genuine concussion risk. SignatureCare™ includes Gmax measurement at every visit.
Program investment varies based on surface type, size, and usage intensity. What stays consistent is the value case; extending surface life by 2–6 years defers a significant capital replacement. Contact us for a tailored quote.
