Product Information

Full details

This 20mm artificial grass is ideal for homeowners seeking a consistently lush, green, and low-maintenance lawn. Its key benefit is providing a realistic appearance with year-round appeal, eliminating the need for mowing, watering, and fertilizing. A potential caveat is the need for artificial grass cleaner for deep cleaning, which is sold separately. Key features include realistic C-shaped blades, multiple yarn colours for depth, bounce-back technology for upright resilience, a water-permeable backing, and a child and pet-friendly, UV-resistant construction. Available in various widths, it's suitable for DIY installation.

FAQs

How do I cut the artificial grass to fit my space?

Use a sharp utility knife or a carpet knife. Always cut from the back of the turf for cleaner edges. Measure carefully and make slow, steady cuts.

Do I need to add sand infill?

No, this 20mm artificial grass is designed with a no-sand infill requirement, simplifying installation.

Is the grass safe for pets?

Yes, it is made from non-toxic materials and is designed to be child and pet-friendly, providing a safe surface for play.

How often should I clean the artificial grass?

Regularly sweep or brush off debris. A rinse with a hose is usually sufficient. For deeper cleaning or spills, use artificial grass cleaner as needed.

Will the grass fade in the sun?

No, the artificial grass is UV resistant, meaning it is designed to maintain its colour and not fade under prolonged exposure to sunlight.

What is the pile height and what does it mean?

The pile height is 20mm. This refers to the length of the grass blades, offering a balance between a natural appearance and ease of maintenance.

Can I install this myself?

Yes, this artificial grass is suitable for DIY installation and can be easily cut to fit various shapes and sizes.

Troubleshooting

Grass blades not standing upright

Brush the pile in the opposite direction of the natural lay using a stiff-bristled brush or a power brush. Ensure the infill (if used, though not required for this product) is evenly distributed.

Water pooling on the surface

Check that the base preparation allows for adequate drainage. Ensure the water-permeable backing is not obstructed. If installed over a hard surface, verify the slope directs water away.

Stubborn stains or odours

Use a mild soap and water solution or a specialized artificial grass cleaner. Rinse thoroughly with water. For pet odours, ensure regular cleaning and consider using an enzymatic cleaner designed for artificial turf.

Edges curling or lifting

Ensure the edges are properly secured using appropriate fixings like jointing tape and adhesive or ground spikes. If the product has been recently laid, allow it time to settle and flatten.

Pros and Cons

  • Provides a safe, durable, and comfortable surface for children and pets.
  • Resilient design ensures the grass blades stay upright and look natural.
  • Easy to clean and maintain with simple rinsing.
  • UV resistance prevents fading, ensuring long-term aesthetic appeal.

Cons

  • Requires artificial grass cleaner (sold separately) for thorough cleaning.
  • Initial installation, while DIY-friendly, requires proper preparation for best results.

  • Can become hot under direct sunlight in very warm climates.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Prepare a level and well-drained base. For optimal performance, a layer of compacted aggregate is recommended. Cut the artificial grass to size using a sharp utility knife, ensuring clean edges. Lay the grass flat, allowing it to relax for a few hours before securing edges with appropriate fixings (e.g., jointing tape and adhesive, or ground spikes). For best results, brush the pile upright after installation.

Compatibility: Suitable for most outdoor garden spaces, patios, balconies, and decking. It can be installed over existing surfaces like concrete or compacted soil, provided adequate drainage is ensured.

Care: Regular sweeping or brushing helps to keep the pile upright and remove surface debris. For cleaning, rinse with a garden hose. For tougher stains or spills, use a solution of mild soap and water, or a dedicated artificial grass cleaner (sold separately), followed by a thorough rinse. Remove leaves, twigs, and other debris promptly to prevent matting.
