What To Look For When Selecting The Best Artificial Turf
Artificial turf

The 1960s were the time when there was only one turf type; AstroTurf. In modern times artificial turf can be purchased from a wide range of brands, and there are many kinds offered. With so many hues, grades, sizes and types to select from, it's difficult to choose the right option for your property.

 

This guide can help you pick the right lawn that meets your specific needs. We'll share with you the features that you should think about when selecting the ideal lawn.

Type Yarn

Artificial grass is a lot like a carpet or rug since it is also made using a specific type of yarn. Three types of yarn are commonly used to create grassy green rugs

Polyethylene

It is the most popular artificial turf. The material is very common because of its many colors, durability, realistic appearance, as well as its soft, nice fibers.

Polypropylene

It's used for covering lawn grasses and for putting-greens.

Nylon

It is the most expensive, but the best looking and most soft. The Nylon grass can absorb temperatures of up to 200°C, and block UV glare.

Density

If you are looking to have a the perfect lawn with lush greenery, the quality of your grass is essential. The density is the number or count of stitched grass blades per square meter. The turf with a high density are usually better quality artificial turf wylie as well as are more durable.

Pile Height

The pile height is also important. The length of the pile grass is also an important aspect. On the other hand when the pile isn't long enough, you will need regularly brush the lawn to prevent the blades from being flat.

 

In areas with high traffic, such as the yards of pre-schools, animals or kindergartens A pile size of between 30mm and 35mm should be considered. The reason for this is that leaf blades that are shorter will remain upright longer, even with heavy traffic.

Artificial grass that has pile heights of 40mm- 60mm, is perfect for sporting fields (FIFA soccer fields). To create a natural and luxurious design, pick a turf with blades of at least 40mm and 50mm in height. A longer pile height that has the highest density provides a more bouncier and softer feel and provides your garden with an authentic look.

Thatch

The colour of your lawn is vital, however, the thatch is more crucial. The thatch is additional fibre included in the lawn that differs in color and texture to the grass fibers in general. The grass will look more natural when it is adorned with strange textures and colours. Natural turf contains a lot of crushed and dead leaves among the fresh leaves.

 

Turf that has tatch with brown, yellowish, or even odd green shades is much more realistic looking than turf that does not have any thatch at all.

Fill with Cool Effect

Infill works best when you have turfs specifically designed to be infilled. The infill will help with keeping your grass in a straight line to ensure that your lawn doesn't turn smooth and matted. Additionally, it adds weight to the carpet and reduce the ripples that occur that occur on the grass. Infills are made from various materials like silica sand,crumb rubber, coconut shells, cork as well as other materials. ZeoFill can serve as an filler to lower the temperature of grass as well as absorb the smell of dog urine.

Antimicrobial Coolturf

If you have pets then it's crucial to choose turf that has antimicrobial properties or anti-odor qualities. The antimicrobial turfs can stop your lawn developing urine smells as well as being easier to maintain because there is no need to wash them as frequently. It is ideal to use Antimicrobial turf that has ZeoFill Infill, and spray Enzyme to flush ZeoFill the granules. Our spray P-Terminator is 100% organic and suitable for pets' areas.

Backing

A quality artificial turf will usually have two backings. There is a primary backing, in which the grass yarn is woven and a secondary backing that coats the primary backing and provides it with a more springy and shock absorbent feeling. If you are looking for the most durable turf with plenty of cushioning, it's essential to choose turf that has a good backing.
