More than three centuries of textile knowledge have shaped TenCate. From its origins in weaving, that expertise has evolved through materials, fibers and manufacturing into the surfaces and systems of today.
Our Story
Play On. Today and Tomorrow.
Surfaces shape how people play, move and experience outdoor spaces. TenCate combines more than 300 years of textile knowledge with expertise in materials, engineering, manufacturing and surface design. Today, that knowledge is applied across sport, recreation and outdoor living, from community spaces to professional sport. The purpose behind that approach is clear. Build healthier, more beautiful communities, one field at a time.
From artificial turf and hybrid grass to running tracks, sports lighting and outdoor living, TenCate combines technologies and expertise to meet different sports, spaces and uses.
Experience goes beyond the product. From yarn and system design to installation and maintenance, knowledge gained at every stage feeds back into how solutions are developed.
At the Center for Turf Innovation, lab testing, field testing, data and user feedback continuously inform how new surfaces and systems are developed and refined.
From professional sport to local communities, TenCate solutions help make spaces available for more people to play, move and spend time outdoors, more often.
Performance and durability come first. Material choices, resource use, and end of life are considered from the start, shaping how new systems are designed.
