Artificial grass turf

Artificial grass turf -ideal for sports

Modern artificial grass used in two main areas - in the arrangement of sports fields and landscape design. Nevertheless, the original artificial turf was created precisely for the construction of stadiums and other sports grounds. The properties of artificial turf in many ways superior to natural grass:

* Artificial turf does not require maintenance, such as irrigation, fertilizer;
* Train on the court with an artificial lawn can be all year round regardless of
weather conditions, which can not be said of natural grass;
* Artificial grass turf ensures optimal properties for training, which is why its use is
so widespread.
* Synthetic grass has exceptional durability and longevity: a quality lawn, under
appropriate conditions can be used to 15-20 years;
* A huge variety of artificial grass to select coverage that best suitable for the
particular sport.

The synthetic grass is different for the following parameters:

* Material - polyethylene, polypropylene or a combination thereof;
* Length and thickness of pile;
* Presence or absence of filling of sand or rubber crumb.

Depending on these characteristics is selected artificial turf for a particular sport. So, you can pick up lawns, ideal for sports such as:

* Football;
* Mini-football;
* Hockey;
* Tennis;
* Basketball;
* Rugby etc.

Should artificial turf be acquired for sports stadiums, its filled with special fillings, such as silica sand and rubber crumb, or a mixture of these components, which makes artificial grass more pleasant to the touch and more comfortable. The fibers of artificial grass are made from polyethylene or polypropylene, as many manufacturers of artificial grass used a combination of polyethylene and polypropylene fibers for improving the quality of artificial grass.

Grass, whose fibers are made of polypropylene to touch tighter, that gives players a fall on the grass discomfort. Polyethylene fibers are softer to the touch, but they have their drawbacks. For example, the artificial grass fibers which are made of polyethylene is very slippery, which is also in the game can be a lot of unpleasant moments. But it is worth noting that the artificial grass, polyethylene fibers, although it is much more expensive, can withstand large temperature changes (from-50C to +50 C), which is not the polypropylene fibers.

When purchasing an artificial grass, most of us immediately draws attention to its thickness. It must be said that the thicker of the grass, the less it is suitable for sports games, as well as significantly worsen its gaming features. Moreover, if the artificial turf has a thick pile, it will soon turn into a very dense and hard, grassy carpet.
