Recyclable Colored Outdoor Artificial Grass With Abrasive Resistance

Recyclable Colored Synthetic Sports Grass With Abrasive Resistance

Artificial grass textures come in three different categories: short pile, mid-range lawn, and long-pile. These different textures range (respectively) from an economy lawn to a realistic-looking lawn inset with mock-moss infill. Brands that receive the highest ratings will usually have a mid-range or long-pile texture.

When it comes to artificial grass, density does it. The denser the grass, the softer it feels and while there are less-dense types that are used for athletic, recreational, or infrastructural purposes, the turf ideal for a home lawn is a dense one because it feels softer under foot and lends better to interaction.

The density of artificial grass is determined by three factors: face weight, pile height, and yarn type. Face weight is simply the amount of yarn used per square yard of grass and much like carpeting (it is a type of carpet), that amount contributes directly to the quality. Dense grass is high quality grass. We mentioned pile-height while discussing aesthetic value. This feature describes the blade-length of a sample’s longest blades and while it contributes to density, the length you choose is preferential (athletic fields use a shorter length). Finally, there’s the yarn type. Polyethylene is the most popular type of yarn because it is highly versatile and very durable. The other two types of yarn used in artificial grass are nylon and polypropylene.
