About TenCate

TenCate’s roots date back to the early 18th century, beginning as a yarn distributor and linen product manufacturer in the Netherlands and worldwide. In the late 1960s, TenCate began developing the first generation of artificial turf fibers and backings for sports fields.

Since then, TenCate has evolved into a global manufacturer of synthetic yarns for giants in the aerospace industry, such as Boeing and NASA. TenCate’s team of scientists and engineers work cohesively to take those same revolutionary technologies and apply them to artificial turf products that can be enjoyed in backyards, commercial properties, dog runs and so much more.

Combining Performance and Quality

TenCate products undergo a highly rigorous research and development process to ensure synthetic grass that’s built to last. TenCate products are tested for performance, longevity and aesthetics using state-of-the-art data collection technology, which is then used to improve the manufacturing process.

In an effort to maximize quality control, individual synthetic grass landscapes are monitored for several years after their initial installation, using the performance data as the groundwork for further innovation in quality and performance.
