The Raw Material of Artificial Grass and its Advantages

The raw material of artificial grass and its advantages.

Synthetic Turf or artificial turf is the alternative to natural grass in many fields. It is developed and is used especially in sports fields and gardens because natural is expensive to get and hard to maintain. Today artificial turf is preferred at not only sports pitches and gardens but also residents, hotels, malls, and other places for landscaping.

Artificial turf has almost the same appearance as natural and meets the same purposes. The only difference is that the artificial is not alive and doesn’t feel as soft as natural. When artificial turf first deployed in the 1960s, the sports federations decided that it is not suitable for playing on it and didn’t get authorized for the official games. The only purpose of artificial was landscaping.

But with the help of technological developments, rubber granule infill and polyethylene fibers started being used, and artificial grass is approved by the authorities. FIFA announced its original FIFA Quality Concept in 2001 and UEFA approved artificial surfaces were let in the games with the start of the 2005-2006 season. After these decisions, so many clubs preferred artificial grass on their pitches because of its advantages.

So what is the artificial grass made of? We are going to give some information about the raw material of the rising product of sports fields all around the world.

The Raw Material of Artificial Grass

The Raw Material of Artificial Grass

The artificial turf contains three components that are coating, backing, and fiber. The most important component, which is fiber’s, raw materials are:

  • Polyethylene(PE),
  • Polypropylene(PP),
  • Polyamide(Nylon),

which are derived from petroleum. The fiber of landscaping is made of PP, while the sports fields are made of PE. These two materials have different specialties and the new generation products include both materials in certain proportions. The amounts vary according to the purpose of the products.

Another question that comes to mind is it harmful? Long times of experiences and certain experiments revealed that artificial grass has no dangerous effects on human health.

The Advantages of Artificial Grass

The Advantages of Artificial Grass

Artificial grass has so many advantages. We have already mentioned the advantages of cost and maintenance. But artificial has so many other beneficial ways. Some of them are about users. The surface has the best qualifications for sports players. The durability and flexibility level of this material completely matches the needs of players. Fewer injuries and more performance are available with artificial.

Less need for the sand is another plus of the artificial. This also helps the artificial to be more abrasion-free. If the grass is under direct sunlight, there will be a low level of corrosion in 6-8 years. But if the field is in a closed place, the grass will endure more than 10 years. Of course, this may vary according to the density of use.

Nature compatible and environment-friendly grass wall seems more alive than the natural. This is another advantage of the landscaping. On the other hand, artificial has no negative effect on the bouncing of the ball. The flexibility of the material increases the quality of the game playing on it.

Artificial turf doesn’t need any agricultural or water for maintenance. It also doesn’t house any insects when compared to the natural, so no need for any protection process from them. One of the best qualities of artificial is the ability to endure against weather conditions. So cold or so hot weather conditions don’t affect the field which makes it useful to play in any circumstance.
