One result of SRI's long term "Science Under Your Feet" research has been the realization of "Omni," an artificial turf with sand in it. And by further developing this technology, we have also succeeded in creating "Hibrid-Turf," which feels almost exactly like natural turf. With this product, the high level of safety long desired by athletes making daring plays has become compatible with a commensurate level of performance. As a result, the possibilities on a variety of fields, including soccer, baseball, rugby and football have become far greater.

SRI's "Science Under Your Feet" research resulted in the development of a wide range of sports surfaces including "Masterstrack," a track and field paving surface, and "Masterscourt," an elastic coating for tennis courts and the pavement around swimming pools. By applying the same type of shock absorption feature to fences for sports facilities, we have in turn developed "Super Cushion." And most recently, we have introduced "Mastersblock," an easy-to-walk-on, hard-to-slip-on paving material with a natural look and feel for urban areas that has proved to be quite popular.
