Perth synthetic lawn – Get a glimpse of it

Artificial grass in Perth and throughout Australia is becoming a more popular choice for residential and commercial applications. It is not a new concept; however, the advancements in artificial grass technology have improved the end result immeasurably.

Artificial Turf – a Brief History

Artificial turf or artificial grass was most famously first used in the 1960s in the Houston Astrodome in the USA. The fake grass was called Astroturf (fake grass), and its purpose was to deliver a fully functional sporting field. Astroturf (fake grass) was very expensive and did not resemble natural grass in any way at this point, except that it was green in colour. It was basically a thick layer of polyamide nylon carpeting and was very uncomfortable when it came into contact with the skin causing the worst of carpet burns and irritation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Over the following decades, better products were invented and released on the market and artificial lawns’ use for sports facilities increased. It was, as it improved, more popular in playgrounds, schools, and in domestic and commercial applications.

What is Artificial Lawn in Perth made of?

The modern artificial lawn in Perth is a surfacing material of man-made fibers which are crafted so that they both look and feel like natural grass. The blades of “grass” are made of polypropylene nylon. It has a backing and cushioning infill of materials like sand polyester foam, and recycled rubber, and it is this which allows the artificial lawn to feel like natural grass. Rainwater soaks into the lawn and dries quickly thanks to an effective drainage system. The lawn is resistant to the sun and will not fade easily.
