Palmeiras and Wtorre studying the lawn of Allianz Parque

Just over a year after reforming the synthetic lawn, and studying a new surface in the Palmeirense Arena. Club and Real Arenas, WTORRE’s arm that manages the stadium, are quoting companies to change the grass. Soccer Grass, the current gramado supplier, participates in the price. Palmeiras approves the current lawn, but understands that an exchange is necessary, as a more modern synthetic lawn will be able to feel less the effects of the large load of events that receive the stadium. In 2024, adding games (30) and shows (47), Allianz Parque received 77 events of great mobilization. More than 2.5 million people passed the stadium last year.

The goal, with the change, is to have a better lawn than the current one, which was installed five years ago and, like any floor, whether natural or synthetic, wears over time, although the current surface is still within 10 years warranty. The forecast, if the exchange is confirmed, is that the work will be done at the beginning of next year. According to Soccer Grass, the current synthetic lawn of Allianz Parque is the closest to a natural field in all stadiums in Latin America because he uses grass wires at the base of the tufos weaving system, contributing to the maintenance, regularity of the game, permeability and drainage of the field.

One of the competitors in the match is Total Grass, supplier of the Barueri Arena Synthetic Lawn, where he plays Palmeiras when he does not have Allianz available and is managed by one of the president’s companies. Total Grass will also provide the surface of one of the Football Academy fields, the Palmeiras CT, currently under renovation. The stadium lawn was renovated early last year. In March, the reform was completed, with the placement of Portugal’s important cork in place of the grass thermoplastic, synthetic material and from the oil industry and melted due to heat and pollution waves.
