Product Catalog
Binders, granules, five systems.
Start with the GroundVex binder or granule palette, then tap a system to explore the environments it's engineered for.
Purpose-engineered polyurethane binder systems that hold every GroundVex surface together. From fast-curing base layers to UV-stable aliphatic top coats, each model is specified by chemistry, cure behaviour, and where it sits in the build — not guesswork.

Which GroundVex binder is right for your project?
3401 — Enhanced UV-stability aromatic
Choose 3401 when you need a synthetic sport surfacing binder with enhanced UV stability for long-term performance.
3443 — Fast-curing base
Choose 3443 when installation speed and base-layer performance are the priority for synthetic sports surfacing.
3480 — UV-stable aliphatic
Choose 3480 when UV stability and clear / light-amber appearance are critical for top-layer synthetic sports surfaces.

RAL shade specifications are non-binding approximations, and on-screen colour will vary by display — specify by Code and confirm against a physical sample. For sensitive shades such as greys and blues, an aliphatic binder is recommended to preserve colour under UV exposure.
Poured-in-place EPDM systems engineered to critical fall heights, with the color and pattern freedom to make learning spaces come alive.
