China Sport Show 2026: Many Solutions, One Mission – Optimizing High-Performance Sports Facilities

With an exhibition area of over 160,000 m², the China Sport Show 2026 is China‘s leading sports equipment trade fair. Supported by the Chinese sports authority and organized by the China Sporting Goods Federation, it presents the latest products, innovations, and industry trends.

At our booth, experience how our nonwoven and turf backing solutions make artificial turf exceptionally stable, durable, and performance-optimized.

Lutradur® – our premium weed control fabric – impresses with its water-permeable, tear-resistant, and UV-stable properties. As a bonding fabric and weed control layer, it provides a reliable foundation for long-lasting turf surfaces.

Colback® serves as a reinforced turf backing and, together with Lutradur®, ensures maximum stability, longevity, and optimal performance of sports turf surfaces.

These are complemented by Enka® systems, which improve drainage, shock absorption, and natural grass protection while reinforcing natural grass roots. This enhances the safety, durability, and performance of sports pitches – particularly relevant given the increasing frequency of extreme weather events.

Our innovative Unbound Base System Enka®Flex and Enka®Grid reduces construction costs by up to 50%, provides full load-bearing capacity, and performs exceptionally even on soft or settlement-prone subgrades. This creates safe, durable sports pitches that perform reliably even under extreme weather conditions. Artificial turf pitches also require a shock pad layer to protect athletes. Enka®Solutions combines both in an all-in-one solution that is certified to FIH, FIFA, and World Rugby performance standards.

EnkaGrid® geogrids fulfill a reinforcement function that sustainably improves the mechanical properties of the soil. For decades, geogrids have been the preferred method for reinforcing soil structures and various surface types, thanks to proven technical performance, construction time savings, reduced carbon footprint, and extended project lifespan. EnkaGrid geogrids are the first choice for stabilizing subgrades in civil engineering projects and for reinforcing challenging environments such as slopes, walls, embankments, platforms, and foundations.

With these technologies, sports surfaces can be designed more efficiently, sustainably, and with higher performance – a true advancement for modern sports facility construction.
