Wide range of products
Whether it's football, hockey or korfball: we offer clamping systems for every type of carpet. We develop a suitable solution for every situation and every sports field, so that the field is finished safely, neatly and professionally.
Customisation: bends and curves
Are you dealing with curves, bends, or unusual shapes? No problem. Our clamping systems are available in any desired radius thanks to a new rolling mill in our machinery. This means you can count on a perfect finish even in difficult places.
Easy assembly
Our clamping systems are designed for ease of use. Thanks to integrated mounting holes, they can be installed quickly and efficiently. This saves time and prevents assembly errors.
Optimal finish
All clamping systems are equipped with high-quality rubber, which holds the artificial grass firmly and neatly in place. For non-infill and mineral-infill artificial grass pitches, we have developed special clamping rubbers with double hooks for a better seal. Thanks to the clever shape of the aluminum profile and the rubber seal, weeds and dirt have no chance to accumulate.
Frequently asked questions
We have listed the frequently asked questions about clamping systems for you here.
What is the function of a clamping system?
A clamping system ensures that an artificial grass pitch stays firmly in place, without the need for infill materials (such as sand or rubber).
Is a clamping system the same as Infill Guard?
No, a clamping system is not the same as our Infill Guard (edge boards). A clamping system prevents the field from shifting, while the Infill Guard ensures that infill does not end up outside the field.
Can a clamping system be installed on an existing playing field?
Yes, SKOR's clamping systems are suitable for both new and existing sports fields.

Clamping System
Are you looking for a durable way to professionally finish artificial grass pitches? A clamping system from SKOR offers the perfect solution for firmly anchoring artificial grass on football, hockey, and korfball pitches.
A clamping system, also known as a pitch gripper, is the ideal solution for a neat finish on artificial grass pitches. In the past, sand was used to secure artificial grass. Nowadays, modern clamping systems for artificial grass pitches offer a durable and low-maintenance solution. Curious about what we can do for you? Read on.
How does a clamping system work?
A clamping system consists of an aluminum clamping profile into which the edges of the artificial grass mat are placed. Once the grass mat is correctly secured in the channel, it is fastened with Rubberfix clamping rubber or an artificial grass clamping profile. This creates a seamless transition to the hard surface outside the pitch. The rubber prevents weeds from growing or dirt from accumulating.
Our clamping systems for artificial grass ensure a firm anchorage. In addition, they prevent loose edges and contribute to a safe and professional finish for the sports field. We supply clamping systems for football, hockey, and korfball. The clamping profiles each have their own dimensions suitable for the type of field.
SKOR's range of clamping systems
Nowadays, more and more artificial grass pitches are being installed without infill materials, such as rubber or sand. Omitting infill makes artificial grass pitches more environmentally friendly, lower maintenance, and more future-proof. This development means that our range of artificial grass clamping systems is constantly evolving, from completely new solutions to improvements in the clamping rubbers used.
At SKOR, you will find a complete range of clamping systems, suitable for various artificial grass applications in football, hockey, and korfball. Our systems are made from 80% recycled aluminum and are also 100% recyclable. A responsible and sustainable choice for any sports accommodation.
Football clamping system
When constructing football pitches, infill-free artificial grass mats, also known as non-infill, are increasingly being chosen. Fields without infill are more sustainable and simplify the recycling process at the end of their lifespan.
To properly install these modern artificial grass mats, a clamping system is essential. The profiles of a football clamping system are wider because the mats have longer fibers and are therefore thicker than for other sports.
Hockey clamping system
Hockey is nowadays mostly played on water-based pitches, which are installed without infill. Clamping systems are therefore essential to firmly fix the artificial grass mat.
Unlike football, hockey pitches have much shorter fibers, making the grass mat thinner. This means that the aluminum clamping profiles for hockey are narrower. A hockey clamping system ensures a seamless transition between the pitch and the edge finish and contributes to a sleek and safe playing surface that meets the standards of the KNHB.
Korfball clamping system
Since 2014, the field dimensions for korfball have been adjusted by the KNKV. This meant that many fields had to be re-laid, with large amounts of infill material no longer needed to keep the mat in place.
New or renovated korfball pitches use clamping systems that firmly anchor the artificial grass mat. As with hockey, the grass mats in korfball are thinner, which is why narrow clamping systems are also used here.
Custom clamping systems
Every sports accommodation is unique, and so is every field. That's why SKOR also offers custom clamping systems. For example, does your field have curves or right-angled corners? No problem. Our systems are available in any desired radius and angle, so we can always offer a suitable solution for your specific situation.
Easy installation through integrated mounting holes
Our clamping systems feature integrated mounting holes. This speeds up installation and ensures a neat, tight attachment. The systems are easily mounted on a concrete slab or concrete curb on the outside of the field. Prefer an artificial grass clamping system without pre-drilled holes? We also supply variants without holes. The rubber profiles are installed last, once the grass mat is on the field. Should the profiles wear out over time, they can be easily replaced with new rubber.
Do you want to be completely unburdened? Then we will carry out the installation of the clamping system for you. Our experienced installers ensure professional placement according to the highest standards. Moreover, we offer a 10-year warranty on all our clamping systems. Proof of the quality and durability that SKOR stands for.
A complete finish for the sports field
A clamping system is an important first step in the professional finishing of an artificial grass pitch. At SKOR, we look beyond just the edge of the field. For a sports accommodation that meets all requirements and expectations, we provide complete solutions for the layout of the entire sports field. In addition to clamping systems, SKOR also offers:
- Edge Boards: Although edge boards (Infill Guard) and clamping systems are often confused, they are two different products, each with its own function. Edge boards prevent infill materials, such as rubber or sand, from ending up outside the playing field.
- Advertising Board Systems: SKOR supplies advertising board systems that are easily attached to existing fences. This allows sponsors to place their boards around the field. This provides extra visibility and sponsorship income.
- Goals: SKOR specializes in the development and supply of sports goals. Our range is very extensive, including football goals and hockey goals, but also solutions for rugby and American football.
- Dugouts: As with goals, we supply various types of dugouts in different designs. Popular models include our dugouts for football and hockey dugouts, but we also offer specific variants for baseball and softball, among others.
