Allianz pitch inspected by FIFA-approved lab | OneFootball

A FIFA-authorized laboratory carried out the necessary tests this week to validate the new pitch at Allianz Parque. The results of the evaluation, which took about seven hours of work, will be released in the coming days.

The Verdão arena, built and managed by Real Arenas in partnership with Palmeiras, features the seventh generation of synthetic grass—the most advanced artificial turf technology for high-performance sports, in compliance with the manual of football’s governing body.

Inspections at Palmeiras Stadium

Every season, a FIFA-authorized laboratory analyzes the synthetic pitch at Allianz Parque—something that does not happen with natural grass fields. The organization’s goal is to ensure that the field provides the best playing conditions for competitions held at the arena. Among the topics evaluated during the process are leveling, impact cushioning, ball roll, ball bounce, traction, and rotational resistance.

Started in December, the replacement of the Allianz Parque pitch was a joint investment by Palmeiras and WTorre, totaling R$ 11 million from the purchase of materials to the completion of the work. After the issuance of the Quality Pro certificate by FIFA, Palmeiras will return to the arena for the remainder of the season, with matches in the Brazilian Championship, the Copa do Brasil, and the CONMEBOL Libertadores.
