Baltimore Ravens Gain Momentum Through Sportexe® Partnership

Small Ontario Based Turf Manufacturer Proving Quality More Important Than Marketing

Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) April 30, 2003 - Fonthill, Ontario based Sportexe®, manufacturer of leading-edge indoor and outdoor sports surfaces, is proud to announce the Baltimore Ravens selection of their Momentum Turf System as the teams new stadium and practice facility field.

After months of research and testing of several artificial turf products, the Ravens are now confident theyll have the highest quality synthetic surface available when they take the field for their first home pre-season game, August 9th vs Buffalo.

Momentum is Sportexes premier sand and rubber infill surface, designed to maximize player speed and performance. The turfs special mix of sand and granular rubber provides stability, traction and speed, simulating a perfect natural grass surface. This dual infill mix works in unison with high quality polyethylene fibers and a unique multi-layered backing, to provide an extremely fast, yet safe playing field. Momentum was developed by Sportexe technicians specifically for the intense, high caliber play seen at college and professional levels. The confidence in the surface expressed by the entire Ravens organization is testament to its quality. "You want three things from your field: safety, a consistent surface that allows these great athletes to compete at the highest level and durability," explains coach Brian Billick. We tested the Momentum Turf and we believe it's the best possible field for the Ravens."

One of several synthetic surfaces manufactured by Sportexe, it is only now, after several years of refinement, that the company has chosen to launch what they feel is the best infill product available. The companys decision to invest resources into product research and manufacturing innovation, rather than marketing, has quickly won the respect of several other high profile clients since Momentums recent introduction to the marketplace. The company claims the proof is all in the performance of the turf. Were proud of this product and we have tremendous confidence in it," explains Sportexe president Mark Nicholls, Other companies choose to be somewhat secretive about the manufacturing process but we cant wait to show customers exactly how our turf is made and installed because were convinced we do it better than anyone."
