Artificial Grass
A Modern, Sustainable, and Versatile Surface Solution
Introduction
Originally developed for sports fields in the 1960s, artificial grass has undergone major technological improvements, making it suitable for both commercial and residential use.
Artificial grass, also known as synthetic turf, is a surface made of synthetic fibers designed to look and feel like natural grass. Modern turf is produced using advanced polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or nylon, ensuring durability, softness, and resilience. It includes a backing system, drainage layers, and infill materials to provide stability, comfort, and proper water flow.
1. Low Maintenance
2. Water Conservation
One of the biggest advantages of artificial grass is that it requires very little upkeep. It eliminates the need for:
In many regions, water scarcity is a growing concern. Natural lawns require thousands of liters of water per month, especially in summer. Artificial grass helps conserve water, making it an environmentally responsible choice.
Key Benefits of Artificial Grass
3. All-Weather Usability
4. Long-Lasting Durability
Artificial turf remains green and usable regardless of weather conditions. It does not dry out during summer, become muddy in monsoons, or develop brown patches in winter. The consistent surface improves safety and aesthetic appeal.
High-quality artificial grass can last 10–15 years or even longer with proper installation and care. It is built to withstand heavy foot traffic, UV exposure, and harsh climates.
Key Benefits of Artificial Grass
5. Safe and Clean
6. Cost Efficiency
Artificial grass is made from non-toxic materials and is ideal for children, pets, and family use. Since it does not require pesticides or chemical fertilizers, it creates a cleaner, healthier outdoor environment.

The strongest and most heat-resistant type. Used primarily in sports fields and areas requiring maximum durability.
Hybrid Turf
A mixture of synthetic and natural fibers, mostly used in professional stadiums.
How Artificial Grass Is Installed
The natural soil is removed, and the ground is leveled. A compacted base of crushed rock or sand is created to ensure stability and good drainage.
1. Ground Preparation
2. Installing a Weed Barrier
A geo-fabric sheet is laid to prevent weed growth.
3. Laying the Turf
The artificial grass rolls are placed, aligned properly, and trimmed to fit the area.
5. Infill Application
Materials like silica sand or rubber granules are brushed into the grass to keep the blades upright and add cushioning.
How Artificial Grass Is Installed
Special turf adhesive or tape is used to join the turf pieces securely.
4. Seaming and Joining
6. Final Brushing
A power brush is used to make the fibers stand tall and give a natural look.
Helps keep the fibers upright and restores appearance.
Occasional washing removes dust, dirt, and pet waste.
Fallen leaves and branches should be removed to maintain cleanliness.
Food spills or stains should be cleaned to avoid discoloration.
