Covering All The Bases For Safe & Playable Infields
A ballfield’s integrity depends on the quality of its basic soil makeup. DuraEdge applies the scientific method to every project, taking the guesswork out of infield amendment and construction. After rigorous testing and formulation, DuraEdge’s infield experts create custom blends of clay, sand and silt, resulting in the ideal mix for any facility – from little league to major league! DuraEdge is trusted by many major and minor league organizations, top collegiate programs as well as many parks and recreation departments across the country.
A topdressing (or conditioner) is the true playing surface of an infield. It must help retain moisture, ensure fair bounces, create a smooth sliding surface, and add to an infields aesthetic appeal. ProSlide expanded shale topdressing was developed by the soil experts at DuraEdge that provides a perfect playing surface for safe and reliable play. It helps balance firm and fast surfaces in hot, dry months by letting water get to the base soil. Our new line of calcined clay topdressing will help manage sticky and wet surfaces in rainy months. Combine both ProSlide expanded shale and calcined clay for best play.
Even perfectly formulated and installed infield mixes will degrade if not properly maintained and regularly groomed. Combining the right tools, equipment, and maintenance techniques is critical to keep your infield at the high level of performance. At DuraEdge, we’re able to determine the right maintenance plan for you and your field and provide that maintenance to you under our Field Assurance Plan.
