Home to The Doonhamers, Queen of The South’s Palmerston Park required that the pitch be re-laid, in order to turn the stadium into a top-quality sports facilities.

Sportex attended site meetings, ensured contractors’ warranties, complied with employee certification and liaised with the Local Planning Authority. Provisions were made for maintaining public rights of way, managing staff and resources, and ensuring compliance with CDM 2015 Regulations.

The project included site accommodation, protection of
work, temporary fencing, road and footpath cleaning, and a pre-commencement dilapidations survey. We handled plant transport, removed the existing 3G carpet, and swept the shockpad to remove debris. Localised repairs covered 10% of the e-layer surface. The new pitch featured a 50mm 3G synthetic turf system with Greenfifields MX Elite 50 carpet, stabilising infill with silica sand, performance infill with SBR rubber granulate, and inlaid line markings for a full-size football pitch.
