Sports Surfaces Ireland was established by Ed Crawford in 1992. Since then the company has grown in strength and stature, and has become a market leader in the construction and installation of artificial sports and play surfaces.

Steadily expanding the company moved in 2000 to new purpose-built premises in Ballymena, County Antrim. Sports Surfaces Ireland is a dynamic, forward-looking company committed to bringing innovations in sports surfaces to our customers. We make use of materials and designs generated from both within the British Isles, mainland Europe and America. New developments in sports technology have enabled us to bring one of the first polymeric tennis and multi-use surfaces to Ireland.

Customer concerns over safety in children's play surfaces have enabled us to bring a wetpour rubber impact absorbing surface to Ireland - Total Play surfacing. This satisfies every current European safety standard, as well as offering a bright, durable and attractive surface for playgrounds of all sizes and themes.

From conception to completion Sports Surfaces Ireland provides a full technical back-up service to ensure that each project completes on time, to specification and within budget, delivering a top quality, professionally installed facility every time.

Anyone with a specific project in mind can avail of our free estimate, site survey, design and quotation service. This enables our customers to fully cost and plan projects, turning their ideas into reality.

We have strong working relationships with our customers and provide effective after sales support and advice once a project has been completed. We stress the importance of safety and quality of workmanship and have a dedicated and highly skilled staff.
