In fact, a large part of the artificial turf sports field is used outdoors, so after entering the cold winter, because of the impact of low temperature on the artificial turf will be frozen sooner or later. Although the effect of freezing on artificial turf is not significant, the field becomes unusable when it freezes.

But in order to make the soccer field ready to use, the artificial turf still needs to be removed from the frozen ice.
In order to avoid damaging the artificial lawn when removing the ice, the most common method currently used is to crush the ice on the artificial lawn with a heavy roller. Once crushed, it can be cleared straight from the field. If the sun is on and the ice is not too thick, it will melt itself quickly and not matter much.

A common way to do this is to sprinkle urea on the ice to help it melt, so you sprinkle urea on it, and after half an hour the ice melts. Melted ice should be cleaned with a washer, rubber cleaner, sweeper, or other appropriate equipment. Also, do not leave heavy equipment on the field for long periods of time, as this can damage the artificial grass.
