FAQs

How often do I need to clean the artificial grass?

While low maintenance, it's recommended to hose and brush down the grass as needed, perhaps once a month or when it appears dirty, to keep it looking fresh and new.

Will the artificial grass fade in direct sunlight?

No, this artificial grass features UV resistance which ensures that its vibrant green color will not discolour or fade even with constant sun exposure.

Can I install this artificial grass indoors?

Yes, this artificial grass is highly versatile and suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations on many different surface types.

Do I need to add sand infill to this artificial grass?

No, this specific artificial grass does not require sand infill, simplifying the installation process.

Is this artificial grass safe for pets and children?

Yes, its innovative design includes excellent drainage which prevents water from pooling, maintaining a dry and comfortable surface, safe for kids and pets to play on without the mud.

How thick is this artificial grass?

This is a 7mm artificial grass, featuring short blades of grass suitable for various landscaping needs.

Troubleshooting

Grass appears flat or matted after heavy use.

Brush the grass fibers against the natural lay of the pile using a stiff-bristled brush or power brush. This will help the blades stand upright again.

Water is pooling on the surface after rain.

Ensure the underlying base is properly graded for drainage. Check if drainage holes in the grass backing are clear of debris. Hose down the grass to clear any blockages that might be preventing water from passing through.

Difficulty achieving clean cuts when shaping the grass.

Always use a very sharp utility blade or specialized artificial grass cutter. Cut from the backing side of the grass for better control and a cleaner edge.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Year-Round Vibrant Green: Maintains its beautiful color without fading, enhancing any garden or landscape area.
Significantly Reduced Upkeep: Frees up time by eliminating mowing, weeding, and extensive watering.
Pet and Kid Friendly: Dries quickly due to superior drainage, preventing muddy paws and feet.
Cost-Effective Investment: Durable and UV-resistant design ensures a long-lasting, lively garden for years.
Flexible Installation: Adapts to complex spaces and various surfaces, making it highly adaptable.

Cons

Requires Occasional Cleaning: While low maintenance, periodic hosing and brushing are necessary to keep it fresh and new-looking.
7mm Blade Length: As an introductory product, its shorter blade length may not offer the same lushness as thicker artificial grasses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

Prepare the Surface: Ensure the area where the grass will be laid is clean, level, and free of debris. A compacted aggregate base is recommended for outdoor installations to aid drainage.
Unroll and Position: Carefully unroll the artificial grass over the prepared area. Allow it to settle for a few hours in the sun to relax any creases.
Cut to Shape: Using a sharp blade or utility knife, trim the grass to fit the desired shape and size of your landscaping area. Always cut from the backing side for precision.
Join Seams: For larger areas requiring multiple pieces, butt the edges together. Use specialized artificial grass joining tape and adhesive underneath the seams to create a seamless, secure joint.
Secure the Edges: Depending on the surface, secure the perimeter using specialized artificial grass pins, adhesive, or by tucking the edges into a border.

Compatibility

Surfaces: Compatible with a wide range of surfaces, including soil, concrete, paving, decking, and more. No sand infill is required.
Environments: Suitable for both outdoor and indoor applications, including gardens, patios, balconies, play areas, and even decorative interior spaces.
Usage: Ideal for residential gardens, pet runs, children's play areas, and commercial landscapes where a green, low-maintenance solution is desired.

Care & Maintenance

Regular Cleaning: The primary maintenance required is to hose and brush down the grass periodically. This removes loose debris, dust, and helps to keep the blades standing upright, maintaining a fresh and new look.
Debris Removal: Regularly remove leaves, twigs, and other organic matter to prevent accumulation and ensure proper drainage.
Spot Cleaning: For spills or pet waste, clean immediately with water and a mild detergent if necessary, then rinse thoroughly. The excellent drainage will help in quick drying.
