Westfield London W12, the largest shopping centre in the UK, has been upgraded thanks to the installation of artificial turf at its entrance. The project, completed by Evergreens UK using pioneering ONE-DNA™ technology, helps to create a more vibrant, engaging and welcoming environment for visitors.
Completed in June, the installation took two days to complete and was delivered by a team of 10 fitters. Working across two levels, the team carefully installed the new artificial turf, ensuring the area was ready for the new summer season.
This latest project marks the eighth consecutive year that artificial turf has been installed at the site by LazyExpo. Each year, the surface helps transform the retail environment, adding colour, texture and a fresh seasonal feel.
The result is a practical and visually striking upgrade that brings the retail space to life, supports the customer experience, and importantly. encourages customers to spend more time on site.
Facilities designed with circularity in mind thanks to ONE-DNA™
For a space designed to welcome visitors across two levels, the surface needed to look fresh, natural and premium, while also being able to cope with regular footfall. The Elan 35mm height provides a soft, realistic finish, that is also durable and more inviting for customers.
The result is a retail space that looks bright, performs well and stands out from other retail spaces.
Peter Footitt, Production Director at LazyExpo said: “As part of the UK’s largest shopping centre, it was vital to ensure the space could withstand a large amount of foot traffic, across all types of weather through smarter turf technology. This is where the use of Green Elan 35mm artificial turf from the ONE-DNA™ range came into its own.”
ONE-DNA™ is made from a single polymer, polyethylene, meaning that at end of life, the material can be mechanically recycled without separation.
