MIXTO is a surface made with hybrid technology, that ensures the best harmony between natural and artificial turf. In fact, with MIXTO the artificial matrix that is specially developed and installed on a specifically patented unique primary surface, protects the natural grass roots, promoting deep root development.
The system has been designed to create the perfect conditions for oxygenation and permeability of the surface layer and the ideal air-water-soil balance, whilst also preventing the formation of muddy areas or waterlogging.

PERFECT SYNERGY BETWEEN NATURE AND TECHNOLOGY
The bond that is generated between the artificial filaments, anchored to the unique primary surface, and the natural grass also ensures maximum surface stability and prevents both snags and clumps of earth. The turf’s durability and potential uses are around three times greater than natural turf and, despite what athletes may think, it is almost identical to fully natural turf.
- Flatness and high technical performance: use never compromises the perfect quality of the playing field and the ball-surface interaction.
- Permeability: the system’s stability ensures superior drainage.
Durability and safety: thanks to the protective action performed by the artificial elements, wear of the natural element is minimised. - Maintenance: required interventions are simplified and reduced with the HybridCareSystem (HCS) protocol, compared with those required for natural turf.
- High economic sustainability: very competitive and improved investment/hours of use ratio compared to a traditional pitch.
- Installation: immediate use when laying turf which has been pre-grown in nurseries, or a waiting time of around 2/3 months with direct sowing.

ALL SEASONS FIELD
MIXTO increases the reliability of the field in terms of flatness and stability in the most used areas and, unlike other hybrid products, surface compaction is almost nil.
MIXTO’s stability allows athletes to play safely right from the day after the turf is laid and achieves all technical performances such as smoothness, bounce, athlete-surface and ball-surface interaction, optimal levels.

When building professional pitches in large stadiums, stability can become a challenging feature given the time restraints, the weather conditions and the high level of use…I chose Mixto for Real Madrid’s pitch at the Santiago Berbaneu stadium because I believe that this system will certainly satisfy the team’s requirements and all of the challenges from the outset. We are proud of our team that always produces top quality playing surfaces and with Mixto I think I could raise the quality standard even further. The product is very flexible in terms of installation and I’m convinced that is has a very big future in the world of sport.
