Rocky Mountain Turf Solutions

What Rocky Mountain Turf Solutions does

Rocky Mountain Turf Solutions (RMTS, Inc.) is a privately held specialty construction company headquartered in Pueblo West, Colorado, that designs, constructs, and installs synthetic turf surfaces for sports, commercial, and residential applications. The company holds exclusive territorial rights as the AstroTurf distributor and installer for Colorado and New Mexico, with active project reach extending into Utah. RMTS serves universities, K-12 schools, municipal recreation districts, churches, and homeowners, executing turnkey field construction projects that span football stadiums, soccer and baseball/softball fields, multi-purpose athletic fields, running tracks (via Rekortan), and playgrounds. The company distinguishes itself through an owner-operated model in which the owner is on-site for every project, in-house construction crews handling material selection through quality control, and quick response on repair and maintenance work.

RMTS operates four primary revenue streams: (1) one-time sports field construction contracts for institutional clients, (2) commercial turf installation for schools, cities, churches, and private entities, (3) residential turf sales by the roll — including recycled turf processed in-house starting at $0.50 per square foot — and (4) recurring maintenance services offered as Annual or Biannual packages including G-Max safety testing, infill decompaction, and grooming. Pricing is predominantly quote-based for commercial and institutional projects, with unit pricing disclosed only for residential roll product. The company markets through a Wix-hosted website featuring project galleries and testimonials, supported by Facebook and LinkedIn presence, with sales led by a four-person leadership team (CEO, President, Director of Operations, Director of Sales) and project-based direct client engagement from consultation through completion.

The underlying technology is sourced rather than developed: RMTS distributes and installs AstroTurf's proprietary product line, which features the Rootzone infill-holding system, the 'More Fiber, Less Fill' design philosophy, and Density-Infill-Gauge (DIG) architecture validated by Michigan State University testing. The company holds no patents or trademarks of its own and operates without external institutional funding, subsidiaries, or parent-company relationships. Its competitive positioning rests on AstroTurf's R&D pedigree (50+ years, original inventor of synthetic turf), exclusive territorial distribution rights, owner-on-site accountability, and a documented installed base exceeding 1.2 million square feet across major Colorado and New Mexico institutional clients.
