From the River Thames to Film Studios: How ARTTRAGrass Builds Football Pitches Anywhere

Post author By Rick
Post date February 15, 2026

Creating a football pitch is one thing. Creating a professional-looking football pitch in places it was never meant to exist is something else entirely. At ARTTRAGrass®, we specialise in temporary artificial grass and bespoke temporary football pitches for unusual, high-pressure environments — from moving vessels on the River Thames to controlled film studio sets used by Premier League clubs and global brands.

As major tournaments like World Cup 2026 approach, this level of specialist experience is exactly what event organisers, production companies and agencies need.

A Floating Football Pitch on the River Thames

One of ARTTRAGrass’s most distinctive projects took place during Euro 2016, when we were tasked with creating a bespoke football pitch for the MBNA Clipper boats on the River Thames.

This wasn’t a standard installation.

The pitch had to:

Be installed on a moving vessel
Maintain a professional football appearance
Perform safely for players and filming
Be installed and removed without damaging the boat

The result was a bespoke temporary football pitch, designed specifically for the constraints of a marine environment — something only achievable with specialist planning, materials and installation expertise.

This project demonstrated what ARTTRAGrass® does best: bringing football to environments where real turf or permanent systems simply aren’t possible.

Replicating Professional Football Pitches in Film Studios

ARTTRAGrass® has also created football pitches inside film studios, designed to replicate the look and feel of professional playing surfaces for TV commercials and branded content featuring Premier League football clubs.

These studio-based pitches require a different level of precision:

Consistent colour and texture under studio lighting
Camera-ready visuals for broadcast and advertising
Safe performance for professional players
Fast turnaround to meet production schedules

Temporary artificial grass allows production teams to create authentic football environments inside studios, without compromising on realism or safety.

To understand how these projects fit into the wider landscape, explore our guide to artificial grass for football events.

Why Bespoke Temporary Football Pitches Matter

High-profile football projects don’t happen in ideal conditions.

They happen:

On water
Indoors
In public spaces
Under broadcast deadlines
With no margin for error

This is where bespoke temporary football grass becomes essential.

Rather than using off-the-shelf event flooring, ARTTRAGrass® designs each pitch around:

The environment
The duration of use
The level of play or interaction
The visual requirements for media and branding

This bespoke approach is what allows ARTTRAGrass® to deliver pitches that look authentic and perform reliably — even in the most unconventional locations.

Experience That Transfers Directly to World Cup 2026 Events

The same expertise used on rivers and in studios is directly applicable to World Cup 2026 activations, including:

Fan zones
Brand activations
Media events
Broadcast installations
Pop-up football experiences

Major tournaments amplify complexity. Temporary installations must be flawless, scalable and fast.

Learn more about how this expertise applies to major tournaments on our Temporary Artificial Grass for World Cup 2026 Events.

Built for Temporary, High-Pressure Environments

What unites all ARTTRAGrass® projects is temporary performance under pressure.

Our artificial grass solutions are designed for:

Short-term use
High visibility
Heavy footfall
Fast installation and removal
Clean handover of venues

Whether the pitch is floating, filmed or installed in a city centre, the principle remains the same: deliver football authenticity without permanent impact.

Why Production Companies and Agencies Choose ARTTRAGrass®

ARTTRAGrass® is trusted by:

Production companies
Marketing and experiential agencies
Brand teams
Event organisers

Because we understand:

Broadcast requirements
Installation logistics
Risk management
The importance of visual detail

This makes ARTTRAGrass® a reliable partner for football projects where failure isn’t an option.

Temporary Football Pitches Without Limits

From the River Thames to film studios — and now towards World Cup 2026 — ARTTRAGrass® continues to push the boundaries of where football can exist.

If your project involves football in an environment that feels complex, constrained or unconventional, the solution is rarely standard.

Start with our overview of artificial grass for football events and explore how bespoke temporary systems make the impossible achievable.

FAQs: Bespoke Temporary Football Pitches

What is a bespoke temporary football pitch?

A bespoke temporary football pitch is a custom-designed artificial grass installation created for a specific environment, duration and purpose. Unlike standard event grass, it is tailored to meet performance, safety and visual requirements.

Can football pitches really be installed on water or indoors?

Yes. With specialist planning and materials, temporary football pitches can be installed in unconventional environments such as boats, rooftops and film studios. These installations require bespoke design and experienced installation teams.

Why are bespoke football pitches used for TV and film productions?

TV and film productions require football pitches that look authentic on camera while fitting inside controlled environments. Bespoke artificial grass allows producers to recreate professional football settings indoors without relying on stadium access.

How do bespoke pitches support major football tournaments?

Bespoke temporary pitches are ideal for tournaments like the World Cup because they allow football experiences to be created in fan zones, media locations and brand activations without permanent construction.
Learn more on our temporary artificial grass for World Cup 2026 events page.

Who typically commissions bespoke temporary football pitches?

Bespoke pitches are commonly commissioned by event organisers, marketing agencies, broadcasters, production companies and brand teams involved in football-related campaigns or events.

Why Artificial Grass Is the Best Wheelchair-Friendly Outdoor Surface

Post author By Rick
Post date February 11, 2026
No Comments on Why Artificial Grass Is the Best Wheelchair-Friendly Outdoor Surface

Wheelchair friendly artificial grass is becoming one of the most effective solutions for creating accessible outdoor spaces for wheelchair users. Whether for private gardens, care facilities, or public events, artificial grass provides a smooth, stable, and reliable surface that allows easier movement compared to natural lawns.

Traditional grass can quickly become uneven, muddy, and difficult to navigate, restricting independence and limiting access. Professionally installed artificial grass removes these barriers while maintaining a natural, welcoming appearance.

At ARTTRAGrass®, we design and install artificial grass systems specifically engineered to support wheelchair users, mobility aids, and inclusive outdoor environments.

The Problem With Natural Grass for Wheelchair Users

Natural lawns may look appealing, but they often create serious accessibility challenges.

Common issues with real grass include:

Uneven and soft ground that causes wheels to sink
Mud and waterlogging after rainfall
Ruts and worn patches from repeated use
Seasonal deterioration, especially in winter
Constant maintenance requirements

For wheelchair users, these issues can turn outdoor areas into obstacles rather than usable spaces.

How Artificial Grass Improves Wheelchair Accessibility

The true advantage of artificial grass lies beneath the surface.

The Importance of a Proper Foundation

At ARTTRAGrass®, every wheelchair friendly installation includes:

A compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base for structural stability
Granite dust levelling to create a smooth, even finish
Precision installation to eliminate dips, joins, and soft areas

This foundation creates a firm, load-bearing surface that supports wheelchairs, mobility scooters, and walking aids with ease.

Key Benefits of Artificial Grass for Wheelchair Users

Easier, Smoother Movement

Artificial grass offers:

Low rolling resistance
No sinking or wheel drag
Consistent surface levels

This allows wheelchair users to move independently and confidently across outdoor spaces.

All-Weather Accessibility

Unlike natural grass, artificial grass remains usable:

After heavy rain
During colder months
In shaded or poor-drainage areas

This ensures outdoor access all year round, without seasonal limitations.

Reduced Maintenance and Increased Safety

Artificial grass removes the need for:

Mowing
Watering
Fertilising
Mud clean-up

It also reduces trip hazards and uneven ground, making it safer for wheelchair users, carers, and visitors.

Ideal Uses for Wheelchair Friendly Artificial Grass

Accessible Home Gardens

Artificial grass allows wheelchair users to:

Navigate gardens independently
Enjoy outdoor relaxation and socialising
Move smoothly between patios, ramps, and pathways

This is particularly beneficial for adapted homes, new builds, and retirement properties.

Care Homes and Rehabilitation Centres

Artificial grass is widely used in:

Care homes
Assisted living facilities
Rehabilitation and therapy centres

It provides residents with safe, consistent access to outdoor environments while reducing maintenance demands.

Wheelchair Friendly Artificial Grass for Events

For exhibitions, festivals, and public events, ARTTRAGrass® supplies wheelchair friendly artificial grass specifically designed for accessibility and compliance.

Our event grass options include:

Wheelchair-optimised pile density
Durable backing for high traffic
Fire retardant certification for public and commercial use

Learn more by reading our fire-retardant artificial grass for events guide

This makes our artificial grass ideal for inclusive events across the UK.

Why Choose ARTTRAGrass®

ARTTRAGrass® specialises in accessible, professional installations for residential, commercial, and event spaces.

What sets us apart:

Groundworks designed for wheelchair use
Premium artificial grass with long-term durability
Fire retardant and wheelchair friendly event turf
UK-wide supply and installation
Expertise in inclusive outdoor design

We don’t just install artificial grass — we create accessible outdoor environments.

FAQs – Wheelchair Friendly Artificial Grass

1. Is artificial grass suitable for wheelchair users?
Yes. When professionally installed, wheelchair friendly artificial grass provides a smooth, stable surface that supports easy movement.

2. What makes artificial grass wheelchair friendly?
The key is the foundation. A compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base and granite dust levelling create a firm, even surface that prevents sinking.

3. Will a wheelchair sink into artificial grass?
No. With the correct groundwork, artificial grass remains solid and load-bearing, even with frequent wheelchair use.

4. Is artificial grass safe to use in wet weather?
Yes. Artificial grass drains efficiently, reducing puddles and mud, making it safer and more accessible year-round.

5. Can artificial grass be installed in accessible home gardens?
Absolutely. It’s ideal for adapted gardens, allowing smooth transitions between patios, ramps, and pathways.

6. Is artificial grass suitable for care homes and assisted living facilities?
Yes. Many care homes choose artificial grass for its safety, consistency, and low maintenance requirements.

7. Does artificial grass help reduce maintenance for wheelchair users?
Yes. It removes the need for mowing, watering, and dealing with muddy or uneven lawns.

8. Can artificial grass be used for wheelchair accessible events?
Yes. ARTTRAGrass® supplies wheelchair friendly artificial grass specifically designed for exhibitions, festivals, and public events.

9. Is event artificial grass fire retardant?
Yes. ARTTRAGrass® offers wheelchair friendly, fire-retardant artificial grass suitable for commercial and public venues.

10. How long does wheelchair friendly artificial grass last?
With professional installation and basic care, artificial grass can last 15 years or more.

Artificial Grass Hire vs Buying: What’s Right for Commercial & Corporate Projects?

Post author By Rick
Post date February 8, 2026

When planning a commercial, corporate or event-led installation, one of the most common questions decision-makers face is whether to hire artificial grass or buy it outright. Artificial Grass Hire vs Buying, which one suits your project?

For many organisations, artificial grass hire offers a lower-risk, more flexible and more practical solution — particularly when spaces are bespoke, temporary or evolving.

At ARTTRAGrass®, we support clients through both options, but for many commercial projects, hire is the smarter first step.

The Real Difference Between Hiring and Buying Artificial Grass

The choice isn’t just financial — it’s operational.

Artificial Grass Hire

Best suited for:

Hire allows organisations to test a concept, meet compliance requirements and adapt over time.

Buying Artificial Grass

Best suited for:

Fully permanent outdoor spaces
Long-term installations with fixed layouts
Residential or low-change environments

Buying often makes sense only once a space has proven its long-term purpose.

Why Commercial Clients Often Choose Hire First

1. Bespoke Spaces Rarely Stay the Same

Commercial environments change.

Roof terraces, offices and venues often evolve based on:

Footfall patterns
Employee or guest behaviour
Seasonal usage
Brand or layout updates

Hiring avoids committing to a fixed solution too early.

2. Lower Upfront Risk

Buying artificial grass typically involves:

Large upfront costs
Permanent installation
Disposal costs if plans change

Hiring spreads cost and removes long-term risk — especially useful for procurement and facilities teams.

3. Compliance & Fire Safety

For indoor environments, compliance matters.

Artificial grass hire can include:

Fire-tested grass for indoor use
Certification supplied when required
Installations aligned with venue rules

This is particularly important for offices, hotels, events and production environments.

4. Trial Before Long-Term Commitment

Many ARTTRAGrass® clients:

Hire artificial grass initially
Assess performance, aesthetics and usage
Extend the hire or retain the grass

This staged approach supports better long-term decisions.

Cost Comparison: Hire vs Buying (Commercial Reality)

Buying costs often include:

Supply of grass
Ground preparation
Permanent installation
Future removal or replacement

Hiring costs typically include:

Supply of grass
Bespoke cutting
Professional installation
Removal or extension flexibility

For many commercial projects, hire is more cost-effective over the actual usage period.

When Buying May Make Sense

Buying artificial grass may be appropriate when:

The space is permanent and unlikely to change
There are no compliance constraints
The layout is simple and fixed
Long-term use is guaranteed

Even then, many clients choose to hire first, then convert later.

ARTTRAGrass®: Hire First, Then Decide

ARTTRAGrass® specialises in:

Artificial grass hire
Semi-permanent installations
Conversions from hire to retained grass

This allows clients to move forward with confidence, without overcommitting too early.

Frequently Asked Questions About Artificial Grass Hire vs Buying

Is it cheaper to hire or buy artificial grass for commercial projects?

It depends on the duration and complexity of the project. For many commercial, corporate and event-led installations, hiring artificial grass is more cost-effective because it avoids large upfront costs and long-term commitments.

Why do businesses often choose artificial grass hire first?

Businesses often choose hire first to trial a space, manage risk and maintain flexibility. Hire allows organisations to assess performance and usage before committing to a permanent installation.

Can hired artificial grass be retained or made semi-permanent?

Yes. Many ARTTRAGrass clients initially hire artificial grass and later extend the hire or retain the installation once the space proves successful.

Is artificial grass hire suitable for indoor commercial spaces?

Yes. Artificial grass hire is suitable for indoor environments such as offices, events and hotels. Where required, fire-tested artificial grass can be supplied with certification.

Does artificial grass hire include installation and removal?

Yes. Artificial grass hire typically includes bespoke cutting, professional installation and removal or conversion options at the end of the hire period.

When does buying artificial grass make more sense than hiring?

Buying artificial grass may make sense for fully permanent spaces with fixed layouts and guaranteed long-term use. Even in these cases, many clients choose to hire first to reduce risk.

Is artificial grass hire suitable for bespoke or irregular spaces?

Yes. Hire is particularly well suited to bespoke or irregular commercial spaces, as it allows for custom cutting and adaptation without permanent construction.

How do I decide whether to hire or buy artificial grass?

The best way to decide is through a site visit. This allows assessment of the space, usage, compliance requirements and long-term plans before recommending the most practical option.

Post author By Rick

Fire Retardant Artificial Grass Hire for Indoor Events & Commercial Spaces

Post author By Rick
Post date February 6, 2026

Why is fire retardant artificial grass hire important for event professionals, hotel management and brand activation organisers? Fire safety is a critical consideration for indoor events, corporate environments and public-facing commercial spaces. Yet many artificial grass hire providers do not supply grass that has been properly tested or certified for fire performance.

At ARTTRAGrass®, fire safety is not an optional extra. Our EventGrass™ artificial grass is fire tested and certified, providing added assurance for indoor installations where compliance, safety and peace of mind matter.

Why Fire Retardant Artificial Grass Matters Indoors

Indoor venues introduce a different level of responsibility.

Event organisers, facilities managers and venue operators are often required to demonstrate that materials used:

Meet fire safety standards
Do not contribute to flame spread
Are suitable for enclosed or high-occupancy environments

Artificial grass that has not been fire tested can present unnecessary risk — especially in venues with electrical equipment, lighting rigs, catering or high footfall.

Certified Fire Testing for ARTTRAGrass EventGrass™

ARTTRAGrass EventGrass™ has been independently tested to recognised fire safety standards.

Fire Testing Certification:

Tested to BS 6307:1982 / ISO 6925:1982
Certified to BS 4790
In the unlikely event of fire, ARTTRAGrass® does not ignite

This provides additional reassurance for:

Indoor event spaces
Hotels and hospitality venues
Office buildings and HQs
Retail and brand activation environments

Where Fire Retardant Artificial Grass Is Commonly Required

Indoor Events & Exhibitions

Many indoor venues require confirmation that temporary floor coverings meet fire safety standards.

Fire retardant artificial turf is commonly specified for:

Product launches
Exhibitions and trade shows
Brand activations
Corporate events

Fire-tested artificial grass is frequently specified for studio shoots and brand content, as outlined in our Indoor Artificial Grass for Promotion Videos guide.

Offices, HQs & Workplace Environments

Artificial grass is increasingly used indoors for:

Breakout areas
Creative studios
Reception and showcase spaces

Facilities and workplace teams often need assurance that materials comply with internal safety policies — particularly in multi-tenant buildings.

Hotels & Hospitality Venues

Hotels frequently host indoor events and seasonal installations where:

Guest safety is paramount
Compliance documentation may be requested
Insurers or venue managers require reassurance

Fire-tested artificial grass helps meet these expectations.

Why Many Artificial Grass Hire Companies Don’t Offer Fire-Retardant Grass

Fire testing is not automatic.

Many suppliers:

Focus on outdoor or residential grass
Do not invest in formal fire certification
Cannot provide documentation when requested

This leaves organisers and facilities teams exposed to unnecessary risk.

ARTTRAGrass® has invested in certified testing specifically to support indoor, commercial and event-led installations.

ARTTRAGrass® EventGrass™ installed for The Pelé Auction 2016 – Mall Galleries London

Fire Safety as Part of a Bespoke Hire Service

Fire retardant artificial grass is only effective when:

Correctly specified for the environment
Professionally installed
Integrated with venue requirements

Our hire process includes:

Assessment of indoor vs outdoor use
Selection of appropriate fire-tested grass
Installation that avoids loose edges or hazards
Removal or conversion to semi-permanent use

This ensures safety is addressed alongside aesthetics and performance.

Fire Retardant Grass for Hire, Events & Semi-Permanent Installations

Many clients initially hire EventGrass™ for:

A specific indoor event
A temporary activation
A trial installation

In some cases, the grass is later retained or repurposed for longer-term use once the space proves successful.

Fire Retardant Artificial Turf Hire Costs

Costs depend on:

Size and layout of the space
Duration of hire
Indoor installation requirements
Access and venue constraints

Because fire-tested installations are often bespoke, pricing is usually provided following a site visit.

Why Choose ARTTRAGrass® for Fire Retardant Artificial Grass Hire
