The groundsmen of German top-flight football club 1. FC Köln continuously balance their maintenance with the environment. The local area experiences a climate that is conducive to grass diseases. However, treating the grass and dealing with the diseases is a delicate exercise as most of club’ facilities are located in an area that is protected by environmental legislation. Thanks to the RSI UV-C the fields now remain in pristine condition.

Energy costs for grass field maintenance can be slashed significantly by adopting a holistic approach that replaces a reactive field maintenance regime with a pro-active field care regime. Understanding what it is that a section of grass needs for that particular moment and acting accordingly, avoids unnecessary wastage both at the premises as well as further down the supply chain. CLS enables groundsmen and field managers to always deliver the light colour, light temperature, ultraviolet or infrared the grass (seed) needs to either improve its biomass or root system.
