Hawaiian Turfgrass Offers Turnkey Sports Turf Field Construction Services

MILILANI, Hawaii - March 26, 2014 - PRLog -- Hawaiian Turfgrass (http://www.hawaiianturfgrass.com), O’ahu’s premier producer of certified, low water use sod, recently invested in state-of-the-art equipment from around the world, and the training necessary to operate that equipment, to become the go-to construction company for sports fields and large lawn areas in The Islands.

“It is our goal to become Hawaii’s first choice for sports field and large lawn construction projects. Now, along with growing high-quality certified grass, Hawaiian Turfgrass also has the capability and training necessary to construct the projects from beginning to end. We prepare the site, install the irrigation, grow the turf, and install the grass as sod or sprigs. We are truly a turnkey service,” said Sean Aukanaii Fong, president of Hawaiian Turfgrass.

Sprigging

For sprigging services, Hawaiian Turfgrass purchased the SprigMaster Pro 6- Broadcast Fairway Sprigger from Sprigger’s Choice, Inc., of Dawson, Georgia. This machine is widely regarded as state-of-the-art in the turf industry for sprig installation.  What is sprigging? It is a process that takes live turf, from root to leaf blade, distributes it evenly across the prepared field, and then cuts it into the soil structure. Sprigging creates a uniform playing surface. (Hydromulching, by contrast, is an older, inferior technology that is costly and inefficient.) Sprigging produces a smooth playing field with live material, for a faster grow-in and the highest quality sports field possible.

Big Roll Sod

For an instant sports field or lawn, Hawaiian Turfgrass installs Big Roll sod in large strips (up to 48-inches wide) that cover an area quickly, with fewer seams than slab sod. Big Roll installation is accomplished through the use of the industry’s premium machinery: the Magnum Big Roll M4826D from Magunum Equipment of Hillsdale, Kansas. This technologically advanced machine increases precision, and reduces man hours needed for installation. The machine is equipped with flotation tires to avoid tread marks. Planting with Big Roll sod offers even faster grow-in, and quicker field turn around. Field downtime is dramatically reduced. Some fields, when installed with Big Roll sod, may be ready for play in a matter of days.

Sports Field Dethatching & Ongoing Maintenance

For leveling off bumps in fields, Hawaiian Turfgrass utilizes the Koro FTM-120 fraise mower attachment from Techno-Green, Corp, of Queensland, Australia. A fraise mower can create even surfaces, reduce thatch and keep fields in optimum condition. This revolutionary machine gives Hawaiian Turfgrass the ability to verticut sports fields and large turf areas, reduce thatch without damaging healthy turf, and to cut out and replace sod in large areas.
