In recent years, more and more people are using artificial grass – both homeowners in their gardens as well as corporate users in business, retail and leisure environments. You have probably come across it more often than you think – these days the quality is so high it is becoming harder to spot.
There are a number of reasons for this increase in popularity for fake grass. The most obvious one is how low-maintenance it is compared to real grass. This saves time, effort and money – great for home users but especially big considerations for business users. It's particularly important for situations where a number of properties or sites need to be looked after, such as holiday homes which aren't occupied all year round.
The fact that Astro Turf doesn't need watering is one of its greatest plus points – it's eco-friendly and also saves you money. The same applies to the fact that it doesn't require mowing or treating with pesticides or other chemicals – you don't get weeds or ants' nests in artificial grass. All in all, it's actually a lot kinder to the environment not to go for a natural grass option in many cases.
Artificial grass these days is more life-like in appearance, texture and feel than ever before. You can even choose from a wide range of finishes and shades of green. It's easy to clean and safe and hygienic – ideal for children's play areas and schools.
It's also extremely hardwearing and will always look consistent — never patchy, marshy or muddy. This is great for visual appeal but also for use in leisure facilities where sports will be played on the surface on a regular basis.
Its versatility also means it can be used in any number of places and situations where it is just not feasible to grow natural grass, such as inside shopping malls, on film sets or around swimming pools.
So when you weigh up the options, artificial grass beats real grass in many situations. You needn't worry about having your choice restricted by your pocket either, as there are options available for all budgets and requirements.
