Preferred

The Preferred team had a great experience attending #spe 2024 HFTC. We presented the results from several field studies on proppant flowback aimed at understanding proppant settling near wellbore area for Resin Coated Sand Placement Optimization. Summarized in the chart below, we have found that the majority of the flowback to the surface is composed of "lead-in" sand pumped early on. ?

In synthetic turf systems, cleanliness and safety are essential—especially in high-traffic areas like sports fields, playgrounds, and pet areas. This is where antimicrobial technology in coated sand infill plays a critical role. ?? Why is it important? Antimicrobial properties helps reduce the growth of harmful bacteria, mold, and mildew on/in the turf system. This not only protects the turf from degradation but also creates a safer, healthier environment for everyone using it—whether it's athletes on the field or families and pets enjoying the yard. Infill plays a crucial part in the performance and longevity of synthetic turf. By choosing infill with antimicrobial protection, you're ensuring a cleaner, safer, and longer-lasting turf solution.

Starting next week, ALL OptiFILL+ production will come with our advanced antistatic function—at no extra cost to you! We believe in delivering the best without adding to your budget. Oh, and by the way… did we mention that the antistatic function is created using a 100% bio-based material? ???? Because performance and sustainability can go hand-in-hand. Check out this review from one of our valued customers and partners! ????They helped us field-test our new antistatic feature as we developed it, and here’s what they had to say: "The new anti-static infill was great in all aspects! It was easy to get in and spread evenly across the turf. When brooming, it worked down into the fibers flawlessly which made it blowing it off 10x easier. I highly recommend using this for our process from here on out." #TurfInnovation #OptiFILL #Antistatic #Sustainability #GameChanger #Partnerships
