Grass mat with sand and rubber infill
The VarioSlide S PRO 65 product line is a revolutionary artificial grass with a very natural appearance that is hard-wearing. From a technical playing perspective, these are top products. They use the unique “Duo Yarn System” patented by Domo. Duo Yarn System stands for a 100% propeller monofilament grass surface to which a second type of yarn, hard-wearing ribbed film, is added, creating extra added value.
The new VarioSlide S PRO generation uses the Heliflex technology. This Heliflex technology creates the ultimate grass mat with untried elasticity. The propeller profile guaranteed the necessary elasticity. This has now been further improved by a cleverly built-in spiral technology. When vertical, the spiral yarn is at rest, but as soon as lateral or downward pressure is exerted the yarn comes under tension, and will want to spring back upright into its natural resting position as quickly as possible.

1. Looks just like natural grass
People want artificial grass to look like natural grass. The grass fibres remain nice and straight thanks to the profiling of the yarn, the Heliflex technology and the sand and rubber infill. Sunlight is reflected just like on natural grass. The colours used are a perfect match for the shades of natural grass. VarioSlide S PRO looks exactly like natural grass.
2. Excellent playing comfort
The primary properties that are tested relating to the interaction between player and the playing surface are: the SHOCK ABSORBENCY, GRIP (linear and rotational) and the SLIDE-FRIENDLINESS.
The properties are tested according to IRB Regulation No. 22. The final approval is always given by the National Rugby Union.
Excellent shock absorbency for safe play
In rugby the shock-absorbing properties of your pitch are very important. If the pitch is too hard it can cause injuries; too soft and it tires the players too much. The pitch must have ideal shock-absorbing properties. A pitch obtains its dynamic properties from a combination of the rubber infill and the elastic, shock-absorbing layer between the artificial turf and the base. The use of a dynamic base reduces the risk of injuries and aching muscles after the match. The main test for checking the safety of a pitch is the HIC (Head Impact Criterion) test. This test gives a perfect indication of the safety of the pitch. You can request the report for VarioSlide S PRO from your sales contact.
An excellent grip on the pitch, both linear and rotational
The Domo® VarioSlide S PRO 65 pitch is built up from combination fibres, “Duo yarn system”: a combination of fibrillated and monofilament fibres. The fibrillated yarn structure keeps the rubber infill in place and ensures that players have a perfect grip on the pitch at all times, both linear and rotational. In this way players can effortlessly turn at lightning speed or change speed and direction.
Slide-friendly thanks to the SPR Quality Yarn (Supreme Performance on Resilience)
SPR yarn is very hardwearing but also has optimum resilience and flexibility. The flexibility of the yarn helps prevent injuries such as sprains due to the knee or foot being stuck in place, burns, etc, and makes this artificial grass slide-friendly.
No displaced rubber
The profiled monofilm holds the rubber infill in place, preventing it from being displaced during play and keeping the pitch nice and level.
Cooler pitch
The tips of the profiled monofilm split when the pitch is used, forming a perfect protective layer for the rubber infill. Sunlight does not come into direct contact with the rubber, thus preventing long-term heating of the grass mat. The helix shape also ensures that less sunlight hits the filament, which means the grass mat heats up less. This helix shape also ensures that rainwater (after a shower) is retained for longer, allowing the pitch to cool down more. This helps prevent burns during intensive use.
3. Outstanding wear resistance thanks to advanced polymers
Lab wear tests show that thanks to the use of advanced polymers and special profiling of the monofilament with a thickness up to 300 µm, this grass mat is extremely hard-wearing. This unique yarn combination easily passes the 30,000 cycle LISPORT test, equivalent to around 15 years of normal football play.
4. Maintenance-friendly thanks to profiled monofilm
A Domo VarioSlide S PRO 65 pitch requires regular brushing. Topping up with rubber and sweeping are limited by the profiled monofilm net that holds the rubber infill in place and keeps it level during brushing, or when clearing the snow from a pitch.
5. Shorter installation time thanks to Heliflex
Thanks to the Heliflex technology, the yarn stands perfectly upright after being rolled out, which means it does not need brushing before the infill is added. This operation can therefore be ignored during installation, thereby saving a lot of time. The monofilm is not yet split when installed, which allows the pitch to easily be filled with sand and rubber. The film will later split when used, thus fulfilling its protective function.
