Abstract
A low-maintenance bocce court surface comprising a base layer with a horizontal backing and vertical polymer fibers attached to the backing; an infill layer of a particulate infill material distributed between the fibers of the base layer; and a surface layer distributed over the infill layer and covering the polymer fibers, wherein the surface layer comprises crushed seashells, and wherein the vertical polymer fibers of the base layer extend part-way into the surface layer; as well as a bocce court comprising the low-maintenance bocce court surface, and a method of preparing the bocce ball court surface.
Claims17
A low-maintenance bocce court surface comprising:
- (a) a base layer comprising a horizontal backing and vertical polymer fibers attached to the backing;
- (b) an infill layer comprising an infill material distributed between the fibers of the base layer, wherein the infill material is a particulate material;
- and
- (c) a surface layer distributed over the infill layer and covering the polymer fibers, wherein the surface layer comprises crushed seashells,
- wherein the vertical polymer fibers of the base layer extend into the surface layer.
A method of preparing a low-maintenance bocce court surface, the method comprising:
- (a) providing a base layer comprising a horizontal backing and vertical polymer fibers attached to the backing;
- (b) distributing an infill material between the fibers of the base layer to form an infill layer, wherein the infill material comprises a particulate material;
- and
- (c) distributing a surface layer over the infill layer to cover the polymer fibers, wherein the surface layer comprises crushed seashells;
- wherein the vertical polymer fibers of the base layer extend into the surface layer.
