Your artificial grass questions, answered
How is artificial grass made?
Artificial turf or grass is made with quality eco-friendly materials that are safe for children and pets. It goes through various stages during the manufacturing process to create the perfect thread, backing, drainage, and weather protection needed to last a long time.
How does water drain through artificial grass?
Perforating takes place during the manufacturing process to allow water to drain. Perforation can weaken the backing of the grass. However, with a reinforced latex and fibreglass backing, our turf is durable and long-lasting.
Is artificial turf safe for cats and dogs?
Yes, our artificial turf range is made with eco-friendly materials that are not only good for the environment but also for pets. It has no heavy metals and harsh chemicals.
Can dog's mess and urine be cleaned?
Yes, simply pick up the mess in a “poopscoop”, discard, then hose down the artificial turf. You can also use a variety of biodegradable solutions that will get rid of odours.
Is artificial grass weather resistant?
Our artificial grass is certified UV protected and can withstand high and low temperatures.
Will artificial grass stain my children's clothes?
Artificial turf is made with special synthetic fibres, but unlike real grass, the colour won’t come off on clothing. Less stress more fun!
Is artificial grass suitable for Cape Town?
Absolutely. Artificial grass is an excellent option for Cape Town homes and businesses, particularly for people looking for a low-maintenance, water-wise alternative to natural grass. It stays green throughout the year without the regular watering, mowing and fertilising associated with a conventional lawn.
Is artificial grass safe for children and pets?
Quality artificial grass can provide a soft, durable surface for children and pets. It’s particularly useful in high-traffic gardens and play areas where natural grass can quickly become muddy or worn.
Does artificial grass need maintenance?
Very little. Occasional cleaning and brushing can help keep your artificial lawn looking neat, but you’ll never need to mow, fertilise or water it.
Can artificial grass be installed on concrete or paving?
Yes. Artificial grass can be installed in a range of spaces, including certain hard surfaces, depending on the condition and intended use of the area. It’s an excellent option for patios, courtyards, balconies and other spaces where natural grass simply isn’t practical.
If my artificial turf is lying a bit flat, how do I get it straight again?
Depending on the type of turf installed, some feature curled fibres and others straight while some have a combination of both. You can simply give it a brush with a hard-bristled broom.
