SMG Sportplatzmaschinenbau GmbH is looking back on 50 successful years in the development and production of machines for the installation, care, maintenance, and recycling of synthetic sports surfaces.

The 50th anniversary is a milestone for SMG, underscoring the company’s extraordinary success story. From a pioneering company that began with courage and innovation in a garage, SMG has developed into a globally recognized brand with a passion for sports surfaces and tireless commitment.
