What is artificial grass?
It is a surface of synthetic fibers made to look like natural grass from polypropylene. It is now popular for residential lawns where originally was used for sporting arenas. The main reason for this is because of the very low maintenance and durability, which requires no irrigation or cutting. The height of the grass ranges from 6mm-10cm, and supplied in rolls of 1m – 4m. It comes in a variety of colours, making it versitile, so not only being used as 'naturally looking green grass' but alternatively it can brighten up a play area, sporting arenas, roof garden, or even your boat!!!
