But lest you being to grow any anxiety about it, know that artificial grass prices can be downright reasonable, especially if you know what supplier and manufacturer to go to. At Artificial Turf, we are constantly working to make our products and service better. We’re not ones to cut corners, but we know how to streamline our business to create great offers for you.

I’ve been struggling to keep my natural grass green since the county had placed a ban on using fertilizers. So I made the switch to synthetic lawn turf. It was a no-brainer. Boy, am I happy I made the switch to a synthetic grass system as opposed to my pain in the butt natural lawn. The old lawn would become muddy for days after it rained which eventually made its way into my house from the kids and dog tracking it in. With synthetic turf installed, I have never seen my kids play in the backyard so much. They absolutely love it and I love all the time saved by not maintaining my pesky natural lawn. Thanks to Artificial Turf Supply for the Do It Yourself tips and the joy of my synthetic lawns.

Here at Evergreens we love a bit of good news, and we are happy to announce that now all of our on-site workers hold Construction Skills Certification Scheme cards – a great achievement for those hardworking artificial grass experts.
Read on and find out how we did it and why CSCS cards are so important.
The Construction Skills Certification Scheme was set up to improve quality within the industry and also to improve safety at work. So when it comes to finding the best company for fitting your artificial grass installation, look no further than our fully certified team here at Evergreens UK.
Since all the team are now CSCS cardholders, Evergreens are now on track to receive a Platinum Certificate of Commitment – demonstrating our expert competency at what we do.
Our expert Installation Co-Ordinator, Dallan Tan, gave us his thoughts on the latest achievement:
• So Dallan, how important is CSCS certification? It is important to prove we have an accreditable installation certificate at time of installation.
• What did you have to do to get your CSCS card? We completed a 45 minute exam compiling of 40 questions designed to test our expertise and knowledge.
• What are important things to consider when choosing a company to install your artificial grass? A proven track record of successful installations and a range of high quality products. We like to show an on-going programme of constantly improved products and service.
• Is there any installation that particularly stands out for you? One particular installation was rather special to me – it was in the centre of London where one full size Football Pitch was installed over 24 hours at David Beckham’s Sports Academy.
• And finally, what would be your dream artificial grass installation? Definitely a two week lawn installation on an exotic island!
Choose a company that has demonstrated a commitment to excellence and pick your artificial grass lawn or promotional logo mats and branded installations from the certified experts here at Evergreens UK.
What qualifications do you look for when you’re hiring skilled contractors?
Fake grass — what do you know about it? You must know something, or at least be curious since you find yourself reading this blog, so unabashedly centered on that topic. If you’re really considering the possibility of joining forces with an artificial grass lawn to make your home more attractive, you’re at the right place.
You should also take this opportunity get familiar with certain terms: yarn type, backing type, and origin of manufacture. There’s no need to have studied rocket science to know that the last one refers to the location of origin of an object or material but, still, you may not realize what a difference that location makes when it comes to overall quality. If you want the best, you want something made in the good ole U.S. of A., and that’s the entirety of Artificial Turf Supply’s products.
As for the other terms mentioned, know that yarn types include polyethylene, polypropylene, and nylon. The best type is the first, polyethylene, and it is what we offer (it’s the most durable). Now, there’s the matter of backing — the best artificial lawns have a backing of urethane and the least desirable have a nylon backing. Steer clear of these last ones.

Artificial Turf, Accepted in Opulent Estates, McMansions, and the Homes of Everyday Folks
Posted by Mofazri at 11:10 PM
Artificial turf is a lot more popular than you may imagine. Have you traipsed your way over to one of those overly lovely homes you really only ever expected to see in the pages of design architecture magazines? You now know, the ones where everything is in its precisely correct location, as if awaiting cameras that uncomprehendingly don’t materialize. If you have, you may have been simply astonished by the exquisite arrangement not just of the interiors, but of the exterior gardens as well. Were you extra surprised when your obliging tour guide revealed that the lawns were of rolling synthetic grass?
Yes, even folks who aren’t worried about making ends meet and can afford to be spendthrifts with their water usage will still decide to go with artificial grass for their lawn covering. It’s a matter of looks and general appeal. But these folks might also have other reasons for choosing to install a fake lawn grass instead of a natural one — they actually care about conserving water!
What are your reasons for considering a switch to synthetic grass? Have you recently become the owner of a pet who’s leaving brown patches all over your once-impeccable lawn? Or are you simply looking for an alternative to the costly upkeep of the lawn you have now?

Evergreens UK are excited to be launching some brand new signature artificial grass golfing greens – the perfect surface for practising your swing, just like the pros.
Read on and find out more about the artificial grass golf mats that are soon to score a hole in one with golfers across the country.
The new signature golfing greens are the stunning end product of a collaboration between Evergreens UK and European Golf – and are set to be a must-have for every golfing fanatic.

We’ll be there along with a host of other golf related experts, including some famous faces from the golfing world. And there’ll be plenty of opportunities to show-off your golfing skills.
Feel inspired by our new designs – two of Europe’s leading golfers Lee Westwood and Darren Clarke, have added their names to our newest golfing greens. And you’ll be able to see our wide range of other artificial grass golfing products too.
Pro golfer Westwood was more than happy to give the new product his seal of approval: “When I had the option to design my own signature green I was delighted to put my name to it.”
Clarke is also a big fan of artificial grass: “Signature Greens allow me to do this, indoors or out, whatever the weather.”
Our very own artificial grass expert, Evergreens’ Head of Marketing Andy Driver is equally excited about the new addition to Evergreens’ golf product range: “The new Signature Greens Collection has been an exciting project which has brought together market leaders in their respective fields, along with top class players, to develop a fantastic new range of products for golfers around the world.”
Made from high density curled polypropylene yarn, these golfing greens promise consistent play in all directions. Larger kits also come with a professional level nylon surface with a stimp rating of 9.1 and chipping 40mm supreme fringe. Retail prices for the standard versions range from £500 to £6,500, however bespoke designs and installations are available upon request.
Set up the green yourself, or enlist the help of our artificial grass experts to get you ready for some putting action. The greens come in a number of sizes, so you can find the perfect fit for your garden.

The first time you see your artificial grass lawn displayed on the spot you chose for it, with such forethought and care, you may feel an irrepressible urge to scream and shout in excitement and satisfaction. That is certainly an experience we hear a lot about from our customers. You see, some people just love the idea of having an artificial turf in their homes or business property, but it’s not until they see it in its full regalia, circumspectly laid out under the bright sun, that they realize just what a stroke of genius their decision to concretize that vision really was.
If you’re among the few that only feel lukewarm about the whole shebang, you may be wondering to yourself, but still aloud, why such a big fuss is made when pondering the decision to commit to natural grass or to be liberated by residential artificial grass. Well, the big deal that surfaces is due to the fact that synthetic grass provides the beauty and look of natural grass, but it doesn’t even need to be watered. It’s also practically pet-proof, especially when to your obstinate pets’ most ordinary misdeeds. Also, people just get incredibly excited when they learn of a way to save loads of money while not having to sacrifice the things they love — like a vibrant and inviting outdoor space.

Things are getting a little hairy round here at Evergreens HQ – with yet another eye-catching install. The team produced a moustache to rival all others and create a promotional campaign for Ginger Joes that certainly stands out from the rest.
Read on and find out how our artificial grass installation and why November is the best month to get working on that ‘tache.
This ‘Movember’ men up and down the country are setting aside their razors and embracing a new look for their facial hair during the month of November – all in the name of charity, of course.
Perhaps you will feel inspired to partake in Movember’s tache-growing fundraiser after our recent install designed for Ginger Joe – a ginger beer product promotion that involved us installing a logo mat featuring a bright red artificial grass moustache of monstrous proportions.
Although the Evergreens team may only dream of growing something quite so eye-catching on our own top lips, as the month progresses an impressive array of moustaches are sure to emerge amongst those British males taking part.
The idea behind Movember was originally conceived in Australia, but now has grown to a worldwide event promoting awareness and raising funds for a number of men’s health issues including depression and prostate cancer.
So as our team work tirelessly on various other artificial grass promotional installations and logo mats many hair follicles will be working just as hard to raise some decent cash for this worthy cause.
We might even update our Facebook page with some of our moustachioed mugs shots so be sure to check and like our page. You could even upload an image of your own – just take a shot of your tache with grass in the background.
Will you be taking part in Movember?
As councils across the country are bracing themselves for a cold snap by ordering extra grit, get your garden prepared for the harsh weather conditions set to rock the country.
Read on and find out how artificial grass could help get your garden winter-ready.
With temperatures expected to reach as low as -20C in some parts of the country, real grass lawns are sure to take a battering and struggle to survive this winter.
But you can easily get your garden ready for some extreme weather conditions this winter, by putting down an artificial grass lawn.
In the past, wintry weather has boosted uptake of artificial grass, and the popularity of synthetic turf is sure to enjoy another surge this year as more gardeners and home owners swap their rakes, lawn mowers and solution sprinklers for easy-to-maintain artificial grass.
Prepare yourself for the ice and snow of the months ahead by having an artificial lawn fitted that cuts out the tedious gardening chores that a cold snap inevitably brings.
Remove the need for vigorous raking, draining and feeding required to maintain real grass and make sure the grass is always greener on your side of the fence.
Is your garden prepared for the coldest winter yet?
As Belfast prepares itself for the arrival of some of the music industry’s brightest stars, the event flooring experts at Evergreens UK were on hand to ensure a warm welcome for all.
Read on and find out how our team brought some sparkling A-list glamour to Belfast International Airport’s arrivals lounge.
A swarm of fresh-faced pop stars and celebrities are set to descend on Northern Ireland’s capital city this weekend to attend the glittering European MTV Awards.
The show will be televised across the world, and will celebrate the best in musical talent with some memorable music performances from big-name acts.
Actress and singer host, Selena Gomez, will be joined by the likes of Snow Patrol, Jason Derulo, David Guetta and Boyce Avenue – not to mention teen heart-throb sensation, Justin Bieber.
Our team here at Evergreens were enlisted to make sure that as soon as those famous feet set foot on Northern Irish soil they feel right at home. So, Belfast International Airport has been decked out in a plush red artificial grass carpet, giving the arrivals lounge a distinct air of LA glamour.
Celebs can strut their stuff without worry, as our event flooring comes with anti-trip edges and velcro join systems – which not only look great, but offer a smooth surface for those expensive Manolos.
With the awards taking place on Sunday, footfall in the airport is sure to be high – luckily our coloured artificial grass is hard wearing, easy to clean and always looks great.
Who is your favourite artist performing at the MTV Awards?
Some people don’t realize that synthetic lawns are what they both want and need. When people buy a new home, they often have fantasies about how moving from a high-rise apartment to a street-level house — one surrounded by the most endearing green grass — will turn them into a total green-thumbs. Unsurprisingly, things don’t always turn out that way. Fervent gardeners hone their skill and appreciation for outdoor life throughout their lifetimes. For folks unaccustomed to such activities, engaging in them more than a few times a year can prove overwhelming. The thing is, realizing that gardening is not their forte does not take very long, nor does realizing that it’s just not something they’re interested in. Cheers to knowing yourself.
Yes, hearts do change, but something that won’t vacillate on you is synthetic lawn turf. This sturdy ground covering will remain steadfast in its color, suppleness, and versatility — all year long. But what’s really important here is that you’ll get all the beauty of a vibrant and green garden without the time commitment, or maintenance costs, that a natural lawns demand.
So get your new home decked out with artificial grass. It’s the smart investment for those who enjoy the fruits of gardening, but not the activity itself.
