Artificial Sports Grass

What is Artificial Sports Grass

 

 

Artificial sports grass is commonly used for sports. In some areas of the country, it is more common to install artificial grass on high school football fields instead of real grass. Its use is expanding into other types of sports applications, such as batting cages, football fields, and baseball fields. However, it is now also used for residential and commercial landscaping.

 

Benefits of Artificial Sports Grass

Higher versatility

Compared to natural grass, artificial grass makes your turf more durable during heavy game usage with no downtime for recovery of field use. This means that events and tournaments will be held consecutively without needing to include field recovery in the schedule. Artificial grass turfs can also be used to play sooner after rainfall, allowing games to proceed as scheduled with lesser delays and cancellations.

Lower cost of maintenance and upkeep

Natural grasses are difficult to maintain because of their constant growth and the fact that you have to regularly water and fertilize them as well as weeding out bad grass from the field. Artificial grass does not share these qualities they don't grow, so they don't need to be regularly cut down or watered every single day to keep them alive. Furthermore, you don't have to hire pest control to keep the quality of your grass.

Weatherproof

Artificial recreational grass allows children to play without mud and dirt. Artificial turf for playgrounds allows children to enjoy the outdoors without being covered in grass. Unlike regular lawns, artificial turf allows children to roll around on it without getting messy dirt and grime on it. Apart from that, it also reduces grass stains and dirt on clothes. Kids can play as much as they want without getting their clothes dirty.

Fairer gameplay

Injuries from falls aren't the only reason kids get injured on the playground. Scratches and cuts on coarse sand or other rough surfaces can quickly ruin an otherwise fun playground. Artificial turf is easier on the skin than wood chips, gravel, or other infill commonly used under playground equipment. It's soft and feels very similar to regular lawn, so kids won't scrape their knees and elbows when they trip or fall.

Maintenance Tips for Artificial Sports Grass
 

Regular maintenance of artificial sports grass

When it comes to business and commercial use, synthetic turf can also prove highly beneficial. Schools and playgrounds can benefit from our cushioned artificial turf, working to make playtime as safe as possible by minimising the impact of any falls or accidents.

 

Regular removal of organic debris

It's rainy in the Seattle area. Multiple layers of leaves can trap moisture and potentially damage your artificial sports grass. Use a blower, broom, or rake to remove organic debris and keep your lawn clean and dry.

 

Note the edges of artificial sports grass

The edges tend to collect leaves and other organic debris. Pay special attention to these areas when maintaining your lawn. Edges are also more prone to weed growth. Pull weeds from the edges of your lawn as they appear. Perform pre emergent weed control regularly to prevent weed growth.

 

Brush artificial sports grass regularly

The fibers of artificial grass may become flat, especially in high traffic areas. Brushing or rake blades will help keep them upright. It also helps redistribute the sand fill, which is important for supporting the blades. Brushing or raking will restore the vivid, natural look of your lawn by lifting tangled turf fibers and surrounding them with filler.

 

Types of Artificial Sports Grass

 

 

Short pile lawn

Short-pile artificial sports grass has high-density fibers ranging from 8 to 12 mm in length. This type of artificial turf is primarily used for cricket pitches or elite level hockey matches and is the easiest to clean. The design is built for precise ball control and fast play. The dense structure allows for clean ball movement during play.

 

Medium velvet lawn

Medium pile artificial sports grass consists of sand-filled carpet with fiber lengths between 20 and 35 mm. This type of artificial turf is suitable for hockey, tennis and lawn bowls tournaments. It's also great for most sports training activities.

 

Stake lawn

Long-pile artificial sports grass is made from natural fiber blades ranging in length from 40 to 65 mm. They have more padding space for better shock and force reduction. This is perfect for the look and feel of real grass and is popular in football, rugby and golf. Some lawns can even be as long as 80 to 85 mm to support other sports such as shot put, discus and javelin.

 

 

 
Artificial Sports Grass Installation Process
1

Basic installation: This will remove at least two inches of soil and roots. Remember, we only remove dirt and roots where needed. Because some areas are already deep enough compared to adjacent soil or concrete levels. After clearing away the dirt and tree roots, we laid the roadbed over the entire area. The roadbed is composed of crushed concrete, cement and stone, providing a solid base for installation. Basic installation includes two inches of road base.

2

Compaction: Next, we watered the roadbed and began compaction. For this part of the installation process, we use a vibrating plate compactor. We realize that in some cases we may need to perform the compaction process twice. But this depends on the depth of the area.

3

Weed barrier: Then there's the weed barrier. A weed barrier is a thin piece of cloth that prevents weeds from spreading. Through drainage holes in artificial sports grass. We extended the weed barrier over the entire installation area and secured it with staples. Invisible staples secure the weed barrier underneath artificial turf.

4

Artificial sports grass: All these processes are followed by artificial grass. We lay artificial turf over the area and carefully cut it into the shape according to the client's wishes. Of course, the next thing we have to do is stretch and tighten it before we start nailing it permanently to the soil. We use steel nails that are six inches long. These nails become part of the soil once they rust, providing a long-lasting installation.

5

Brush artificial sports grass: Finally, we paint the artificial turf. The purpose of brushing artificial sports grass is to keep it straight. To this we also add silica sand or any filler the customer may choose. This process is very important so that artificial turf stays upright longer. This is the process for our basic artificial turf installation.

Asked Questions

 

Q: What are the different types of artificial sports turf ?

A: There are only three different types of plastic used to make artificial sports grass. They are polypropylene, polyethylene, and nylon (polyamide), and each material has different advantages and disadvantages. Polyethylene is the most commonly used type of plastic fiber because it is generally a very good all-around material.

Q: Which material is the best for artificial sports turf ?

A: For the best all-around lawn, we highly recommend choosing a product that uses a blend of nylon and polyethylene. It’s important to have an artificial sports turf that’s hard-wearing, but not so hard that it’s uncomfortable to sit on, lie down on, or walk on barefoot.

Q: What is the difference between artificial sports turf and synthetic turf ?

A: Artificial sports turf is a similar product to artificial sports grass, but has shorter fibers and may contain rubber infill, sand infill, or a combination of both.

Q: How to judge the quality of artificial sports turf ?

A: Better quality artificial sports grass tends to have a thick, dense pile that looks natural. A fuller pile also helps the fake grass recover better from the effects of foot traffic. But that’s not to say you shouldn’t consider purchasing sparse grass.

Q: What lawn is easiest to maintain ?

A: Fine fescue is the most popular low-maintenance cool-season grass. A mix of hard fescue and fine fescue requires little maintenance. You only need to mow your lawn once or twice a year. Fescues are hardy and they will naturally exclude weeds, so you don't have to worry about fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides.

Q: What is the best underlayment for artificial sports turf ?

A: We then recommend using Type 1 aggregate as a sub base at a 60mm level followed by a layer of sharp sand to provide a good even finish to your astro lawn sand base. Next, you should install shock-absorbing padding to make your artificial sports turf more natural and resilient.

Q: Is artificial sports turf difficult to clean ?

A: Although artificial sports turf is easier to maintain than lawn, regular cleaning is still an important part of its maintenance. Proper maintenance helps ensure the longevity of your synthetic materials while preventing the build-up of dirt and grime.

Q: What is the cheapest way to lay artificial sports turf ?

A: Just use a lot of nails. For some installations, this is a perfectly viable method of seaming, although it is less safe. Nails often loosen over time and enough foot traffic, so we only recommend this method if your lawn won't have many nails.

Q: Which is better, turf or artificial sports turf ?

A: In contrast to artificial sports turf, natural turf requires less maintenance over time and usually does not require complete replacement. Artificial sports turf is not maintenance-free. While it doesn't require mowing or watering, it does require clean and cooling water.

Q: Will artificial sports grass get moldy ?

A: Yes, although artificial sports grass is rare, it can also house moss and mold. Spores in the air attach to grass threads and multiply if left untreated.

Q: Does artificial sports turf smell after it rains ?

A: Most artificial sports turfs are equipped with drainage systems capable of handling standard rain showers, but when too much precipitation occurs, your turf may smell after a rain. This is caused by bacterial growth in the pool water.

Q: Do rats like artificial sports grass ?

A: Moles, rats, rabbits, prairie dogs and other rodents generally do not stay long if natural turf is converted to artificial sports turf

Q: Will water drain through artificial sports grass ?

A: The good news is that artificial sports grass itself is designed to drain freely. The backing is permeable so water can pass through easily. Therefore, fake grass actually drains more efficiently than natural grass.

Q: Can dogs pee on artificial sports turf ?

A: Pets can relieve themselves on artificial sports turf because the waste does not sink into the ground and is easier to clean up than on natural grass.

Q: Why is my artificial sports turf uneven ?

A: Ground stabilizing geotextile used to separate the existing stripped turf area (soil) from the new base. Without this geotextile, the base will slowly compact into the soil and the lawn will become uneven over time.

Q: What is hybrid artificial sports turf ?

A: Hybrid grass is a mixture of natural grass and artificial fibers. This is usually done in two ways, either by stitching the fibers into the natural turf or laying an artificial sports grass carpet on top of the natural grass.

Q: What is a mixed lawn ?

A: Hybrid turf, a natural turf surface reinforced with synthetic fibers, is now used not only in Bundesliga stadiums but also occasionally in municipal areas.

Q: Does artificial sports grass smell in high temperatures ?

A: Common DIY artificial sports turf is mostly made of rubber. When there is too much heat from the sun or any other source, grass can start to smell like burning tires. If homeowners and pets continue to use their lawns during hot periods, the heat can cause dehydration and heat stroke.

Q: Is artificial sports turf too hot for dogs ?

A: Pet owners should only worry if they purchase low-quality artificial sports turf that is not designed for high temperatures. Another area to pay attention to is the padding. Low-quality artificial sports grass that uses materials like crumb rubber infill absorbs heat quickly, increasing your dog's risk of injured paws.

Q: What is the best thing to put under artificial turf ?

A: The best substrate for artificial sports grass is secondary roadbed. This material is used in most professional installations because it provides a very solid foundation. However, DIY enthusiasts who cannot easily use this road base should use decomposed granite and stabilizer as the base.
