Abstract: An artificial grass surface structure (1) for sports fields includes a mat (2) with filaments (4) which simulate a grass surface, and at least a filling layer (5) having a granular infill material (6) arranged between the filaments (4). The granular infill material for synthetic grass surfaces includes a plurality of granules (8) having a thermoplastic polymeric matrix and a load dispersed in the matrix. The load includes at least a cellulose-based vegetable component.
