The 3D Mesh & Non-Woven Cloth Shock Pad is a spacer fabric underlay built for artificial turf and safety surfacing systems. It's made from high-molecular polymers using a hot-melt molding process, formed into a three-dimensional rhombic or hexagonal honeycomb mesh.
The top and bottom surfaces are flat mesh layers. In between, vertical support filaments connect the two layers and act like small springs. This gives the pad its cushioning response and lets water and air pass through the structure instead of pooling on top of it.
A non-woven cloth layer sits on the surface to add stability and support consistent contact with the turf backing above. Together, the mesh core and cloth layer form a composite underlay designed for drainage, ventilation, and shock absorption in one product.
This shock pad is used under artificial turf on sports fields, playgrounds, school grounds, and landscape areas where standing water and poor airflow are common problems.

The honeycomb mesh core creates open vertical channels through the pad. Water moves down through the structure instead of collecting on the surface, and air keeps moving through the base layer underneath. This helps reduce waterlogging on turf fields after heavy rain.
The vertical filaments between the top and bottom mesh layers work like small springs. Under load, they compress and then return to shape, spreading impact across the structure. This supports consistent footing and reduces harsh impact on joints during play.
Because the pad drains and dries quickly, moisture doesn't sit inside the structure. This limits conditions that support bacteria and mold growth, which matters for turf surfaces used daily by schools, clubs, and public facilities. The open mesh structure also makes it easier to clean and maintain over time.
The mesh structure breaks up impact sound instead of transmitting it directly through a solid base. This is useful on fields located near residential areas or inside mixed-use sports complexes where noise control matters.
The polymer construction keeps the pad light enough for efficient handling and roll-out on site, while the honeycomb structure keeps it stable under repeated load. The polymer material is also built to resist aging from ongoing UV and weather exposure.
Yes. The 3D mesh structure creates vertical channels that let water drain down through the pad instead of sitting on the surface, which helps reduce waterlogging after rain.
It's designed to work under artificial turf on common bases like soil, concrete, or asphalt. Base preparation requirements can vary by project, so we recommend confirming site conditions with our technical team before installation.
Yes. The open mesh structure supports drainage and airflow, which helps the underlay handle wet conditions better than a solid, non-porous pad.
Because the pad drains and dries faster than a solid pad, it holds less standing moisture. Less trapped moisture means fewer conditions for mold and bacteria to build up over time.
