Launch of 'Tough Guard', a grass protection mat, honeycomb structure maximizes grass protection power... Convenient one-touch

GSTG Co., Ltd. Launches Turf Protection Mat ‘Turf Guard’
Material that is resistant to temperature, pressure, and wear | Customized application to areas with concentrated pressure | Quick recovery of grass after mat removal
GSTG Co., Ltd. (CEO Lee Hyo-sang) possesses the best artificial grass and mat technology in Korea, and its products are continuously gaining popularity both domestically and internationally.
This is because it has established a ‘One Stop Total Solutions System’ from raw material manufacturing to post-processing finished product production, and has developed and produced over 50 products directly.
This ensures quality control, and it has also been consistently investing in new product development, introducing artificial grass and mats tailored to the season and use every year.
Recently, it has developed and launched a new type of grass protection mat ‘Turf Guard’ that protects natural grass, and is supplying a variety of products that can be customized for each season and course area, including the upcoming grass dormancy period.
The Tough Guard, which is made by concentrating GST's technology, uses materials that are resistant to temperature, pressure, and wear, and is characterized by excellent resilience that effectively protects the grass while allowing the grass to return to its original state after the mat is removed.
It is designed with a hexagonal honeycomb structure and has six support columns, and circular supports are applied at regular intervals to provide very stable support and protection.
It shows excellent ability to protect the grass by supporting the load with the protrusions and circular supporters while the small protrusions distribute the load.
While providing excellent grass protection, the large size of the mat's holes creates sufficient natural grass vegetation space.

The Tough Guard is made of EVA material, so it is durable, and it also has excellent anti-sinking function by applying circular pedestal pillars, assembly hooks, and backrest area to the maximum.
It is also easy to assemble. With the one-touch hook method, you can easily assemble it with your fingers or a small hammer, and you can also remove it by pressing the groove of the connected support with your hand or tweezers.
Tough Guard is sold in units of 10㎡ (44 sheets) and 70㎡ (308 sheets) with a size of 47.5×47.5cm per sheet, and a fixing pin to fix the mat can also be applied. It can be used in various places such as golf courses, soccer fields, baseball fields, and parks for the purpose of protecting natural grass.
Meanwhile, GST is also supplying T-Free Air Mat and Green Insulation Mat, which are specialized for winter tees. The entire mat is equipped with an air cushion that allows it to breathe, so it does not damage natural grass due to excellent air circulation, and it can be custom-made in desired shapes and sizes such as circular and octagonal.
GSTG CEO Lee Hyo-sang said, “Our artificial grass mats are recognized by famous overseas golf courses and many credible professional sports teams,” and added, “We will always do our best to help all domestic golf courses operate efficiently and maintain high-quality courses.”
