  • Is non-infill artificial grass toxic?

    Premium products manufactured from virgin polymers and tested to international environmental standards are generally considered safe for their intended applications. Why does new artificial grass sometimes smell? A mild “new material” odor from polymer products can occur after unpacking and installation. It usually decreases with normal outdoor ventilation. Persistent strong chemical odors may indicate lower-quality…

  • How Should You Build the Base for Non-Infill Artificial Turf?

    The basic principle is: Build the foundation first, then install the turf. A typical outdoor structure can be: Compacted subgrade → graded aggregate sub-base → concrete or asphalt base → optional shock pad → non-infill artificial turf The most important factors are: And perhaps the most important takeaway is: There is no universal “3 mm…

  • How to Specify Non-Infill Turf More Professionally

    Instead of asking a supplier: “How many millimeters is your artificial grass?” A better procurement specification is: Application → pile height → tuft density → yarn Dtex/profile → backing → drainage → cushion → base → testing For example, a residential project could request: 30 mm non-infill landscape turf + specified tuft density + specified…

  • Children’s Areas and Kindergartens: 20–30 mm

    For children’s areas, pile height should not be treated as a direct indicator of safety. The critical question is whether the complete surface system achieves the required impact attenuation, vertical deformation, drainage and other safety requirements. Depending on the jurisdiction and project type, standards such as EN 1177 and applicable national playground or sports-surface requirements may be relevant. For…

  • Recommended Pile Height by Application

    Residential Gardens and Landscaping: 25–35 mm For home gardens, terraces and general landscaping, 25–35 mm is a useful starting range. A 25–30 mm product can offer relatively easy maintenance, while around 30–35 mm can create a fuller visual appearance. For non-infill landscaping turf, it is particularly important to check density and yarn construction because there is no…

  • What Grass Height Is Best for Non-Infill Artificial Turf?

    There is no single grass height that works for every non-infill artificial turf application. In practice, the right pile height depends on the use scenario, tuft density, yarn Dtex, backing system, cushioning layer, drainage design, and expected traffic. As a general reference, 25–35 mm is common for residential gardens and landscaping, while 20–25 mm can be practical for balconies and…

  • How to Eliminate and Prevent Weeds

    The simplest way to deal with unwanted plants is to pull them out by hand. Because artificial turf is installed over a compacted base, small weeds are usually easy to remove by hand. Left unchecked, though, those plants spread and become harder to manage. Pay particular attention to seams and edges where turf meets hard…

  • The filling depth of the auxiliary materials of artificial turf depends on the height of the turf

    Selection criteria of rubber particles: 1. Select environmentally friendly elastic rubber particles with dense rubber particles and high rubber content. According to the new national standard, the high polymer content is not less than 20%; 2. The particle size of the rubber particles is 1-3mm, which is a Triangular rhombus or regular shape; 3. Good…

  • About the selection specification and filling ratio of filling materials

    Rubber granules for artificial turf filling, EPDM granules, and TPE granules are commonly used in the mainstream. EPDM particles, the main component is EPDM rubber. EPDM rubber is a copolymer of ethylene, propylene, and a small amount of non-conjugated diene, which is a kind of ethylene-propylene rubber. EPDM rubber can resist ultraviolet radiation and general…

  • The soil material should be cohesive fine-grained soil with a particle size of not more than 15mm

    Flatness: The qualified rate of flatness is above 95%, and the error of 3-meter ruler is 3mm. Slope: horizontal <1%, vertical <1‰, high jumping area <4‰, the surface should be flat and smooth to ensure drainage. Strength and stability: Asphalt materials should preferably use materials with no or little wax content. The base surface must be fully compacted…
