Although most artificial grass installations are still for sports, since the 1990s it has become very popular for other areas too. Both domestic and commercial properties (such as hotels and offices) have benefited from installing artificial turf. Manufacturers make mention of its cleanliness, low maintenance and water-saving advantages, as well as its looks – artificial grass is always gives that ‘freshly mown’ appearance!
There is also a current trend for ‘Pop-Up Parks’ in conference venues, weddings and even city centres, such as this one which appear in Leeds this Summer…
Despite being similar in appearance, ‘landscaping’ grass does tend to have different properties to its sports-purpose cousins, so do make sure you are buying the right kind. And the display grass so often used by butchers, greengrocers and other market stall holders is – dare we say it? – quite cheaply made and unsuitable for lawns, where children and animals might be playing.
Our stock is all high quality, but purely for domestic and commercial use, rather than sports and games.
