How to Recognize High Quality Artificial Grass?

The market currently offers a lot of solutions in the field of synthetic grass however knowing which to choose can prove challenging. Here are a few simple notes to help you select the appropriate artificial grass for your garden, business or school.

Artificial grass is an investment that will last you many years. Firstly it is always worth checking the country of production of the grass. We import our grass from a trusted manufacturer in The Netherlands. This manufacturer has many years of experience in the production of high-quality synthetic grass. It is no harm to ask your supplier to confirm the source of their artificial grass if you feel it’s necessary.

Secondly the product durability should be guaranteed by the warranty offered. In general the longer the warranty the better the quality of the product. Be wary of warranties from further-afield which can prove difficult to claim against in reality.

Next you should always confirm the use of UV stabilizers in the technical process of artificial grass production. This will ensure that the colour of your chosen artificial grass will not fade over too short a period (i.e. in a short few years).

After that check the product for weight, fibre thickness, weave density and pile height. A soft product has its obvious advantages but sometimes grass that is too soft can be the result of product fibres that are overly delicate. This type of grass can therefore prove less capable of enduring the rough-and-tumble of activities on top of it. Soft fibres can also prevent the grass from maintaining its vertical position. This is not so much the case if it is compensated with high density in the grass itself.

Finally a factor that should also be assessed is the gloss level – too high a gloss level will not look natural. A separate category of assessment is the primer; this stabilizes the grass, affects the strength of the fibres, shrinkage under the influence of temperature and protects it against the effects of atmospheric conditions.

Taking all of these factors into account will enable you to choose a grass which will be of the highest quality. It will also help you select a grass which will endure over the long-term while also maintaining its feel and appearance.
