The Maracana management continues to analyze the results and make necessary adjustments to expand the scope of actions in this area. Based on proven measures and the principle of solving problems that can be improved, the current government has decided to use hybrid turf (natural grass reinforced with synthetic fibers), which is the same as used in most European stadiums.

The system's technology uses special equipment to "stitch" between artificial thread and natural grass.

First, we remove 15 cm of the existing lawn, then clean the entire area and prepare to receive a new layer of sand with a suitable and uniform grain size. After that, by checking the trimming condition, the new sand layer was leveled by laser. Finally, the lawn is planted on twigs, the herb seedlings are composed of leaves, roots, rhizomes and rhizomes, without soil. A few days after planting and the formation of a new lawn, begin to sew thread into the soil.

The system always ensures that the surface is uniform, has higher efficiency and resistance to trampling, and keeps more play time per year than the classic non-reinforced surface. It is not only responsible for drainage, but also for regulating water volume and soil temperature, and for improving lawn growth. condition.

The installation of the new lawn will begin at the end of this year's season and will take approximately 90 days to complete. “This is a necessary intervention. The main factors are the number of games in the stadium and the disturbance to the weather. Maracanã CEO Severiano Braga said that in the future Under the circumstances that affect the 2022 schedule, it will take about three months to prepare the turf as soon as possible.
