We offer advice and cost-effective solutions for the design, construction and management of all types of sports surfaces, including football, rugby, cricket, hockey, tennis and multi-sport surfaces.
STRI believes in supporting clients to develop good quality and sustainable sports pitches that suit your requirements, budgets and timings.

Each pitch or surface installed will reach the required quality standards, and we will provide supportive guidelines on annual maintenance programmes.
