What is the best artificial turf?

Surely you have just landed in the world of Artificial Grass and you are not sure what model to buy or at least what features it should have and what to look at to make it the best artificial turf you can buy. Surely this article will help you.

Beautiful Artificial Grass

On the one hand, you have to like it the way it is. Because no matter how good they tell you it is, and that it has incredible qualities, but then you don’t like it, you won’t enjoy it. Keep in mind that it is an investment for many years. Whether it is more or less quantity, the idea, normally, is to have it for many years and we do not want an artificial turf, that every time you look at it, you do not end up convincing.

Practical Artificial Grass

On the other hand, you want it to be as practical as possible. That it does its job. And for that, it will depend on your own needs.

For example:

Decorative Artificial Grass

If you want it only for decorative purposes, for example an islet type area of plants fenced with stones, you will have to pay attention above all to the design, that you like it and that you think it is beautiful. Since there it will matter little if it recovers more or less the tread.

Trafficable Artificial Turf

On the other hand, maybe you don’t care so much about the design and you want it to withstand the passage of people, since it is in a very walkable area and you don’t want it to be crushed right away.

These two concepts are the most significant in terms of their practicality. But other factors must also be taken into account.

Artificial Turf Good

Artificial turf with polyethylene

To know if an artificial turf is good, we must take into account above all, the materials with which it is manufactured. To do this we look at the polyethylene (PE) is always present to a greater or lesser extent, as it is the best material for the durability of artificial turf. We do not want it to fall apart in a few years in the sun.

Artificial turf drainage

We have to make sure that the model we choose has drainage holes. The quantity and size of these holes will determine the capacity to drain more or less water per minute and square meter. Nowadays most of the models have drainage, but it is not superfluous to make sure that they do.

Artificial Turf Soft Artificial Grass

The density of artificial turf is not synonymous with better quality, but it is true that having more quantity, the grass becomes more resistant. We do not have to look so much at the number of stitches or the famous Dtex data that makes buyers so dizzy.

As an example, our model with the most stitches is the Summer Ten 10mm model with 75,000 stitches, however, it is not the best quality model by far. The stitches data can only be taken into account when we compare it with a model of the same height or similar characteristics.

When we want it to be denser, not only the stitches have an influence. A model of 75,000 stitches and 10mm is not fluffier than one of 40mm and 20,000 stitches. Because in the end, the taller one has more thread and that makes it fluffier. And being of the same height, a model with fewer stitches can also be fluffier if its yarn is wider or has a higher crimped yarn. In the end, it will also have more material and make it fluffier.

Ultimately in this aspect, what influences whether it is more fluffy or quilted, is the amount of thread it has. Either straight thread or curly thread. Since many very high models, hardly carry curly thread or are fine threads and makes them less fluffy.

The ideal artificial grass

Therefore, the best artificial turf is the one you like the most aesthetically and that meets the needs you are looking for. Within your budget, the one that has the best quality. But there is no established rule that for a balcony it has to be 40mm or 20mm. So questions such as if I want it for a garden, what height it has to be, do not make sense.

It will be the height you want it to be. That’s the good thing about artificial grass, you don’t have to cut it and it will always be the same height. Just make sure you buy the height you like.
