Synthetic grass infill is the granular material spread between the blades of artificial turf. It's a crucial component that provides several key benefits, contributing to the performance, longevity, and aesthetics of the synthetic lawn.
Asthetics: Infill helps the synthetic grass blades stand upright, mimicking the look and feel of natural grass. Without it, the blades would tend to lie flat, resulting in a matted and unnatural appearance. It also acts as a ballast, weighing down the turf and preventing wrinkles or movement, especially due to temperature fluctuations.
Comfort: Infill provides cushioning and shock absorption, enhancing safety, particularly on sports fields and playgrounds. It also protects the turf's backing from UV rays and wear, extending the lifespan of the artificial lawn.
Drainage: Proper infill also aids in drainage, preventing water from pooling on the surface and reducing the risk of odors and bacterial growth.
Various types of infill materials are available, each with its own characteristics and benefits. Wintergreen Synthetic Grass offers several options to best fit your needs.
