Greens are some of nature's greatest blessings. We often take them for granted. But they make a significant contribution in our lives, and for the planet itself. Today in our busy lifestyles, lavish homes, and modern societies, we see less greenery than ever before. The city life can be tough. Everything from your job to your personal life, will exhaust you. But if you come across a bit of nature, that gives you comfort. Brings you warmth and calmness. This can be in form of wooden furniture, or grass and other plants.
Artificial turfs and grass lawns, also greatly contribute to this. They bring you back to nature. Lets say you've decided to get a lawn, or maybe you need a sports field, but you're conflicted. Should you get real grass? Should you get an artificial turf? That's a major decision, which would change the factors involved later on.
Today, at MBT we'll go through the reasons why you should go for Artificial Turfs. But first, for those that may not know, let's talk about what an artificial turf is. An artificial turf is a grass like surface, made of synthetic fibers. It was traditionally used in sports arenas. With time however, commercial and residential uses of the product also arrived.
But why should you use it? Let's discuss
The Benefits of Artificial Turfs
There are various reasons for the trend of artificial turfs. Let's get to some of them below:
- Eco Friendliness
Because artificial turf is made of synthetic materials, it does not need to be watered at all, except when the homeowner decides to occasionally rinse it off. Giving artificial turf an occasional rinse helps to keep odors from becoming a problem, especially if pets tend to do their business close to the home. A typical grass sports field can use between 500,000 to a million gallons of water each year. Synthetic turf allows communities to conserve that water, which is particularly critical during times of drought.
- Saves on Maintenance
Synthetic turf eliminates the use of potentially harmful pesticides and fertilizers while significantly decreasing maintenance costs.
- Looks Just as Good
We can’t ignore the aesthetic value of synthetic turf. Available in an array of blade lengths, colors, and textures (including variegated strands), the new generation of synthetic grass can fool most.
- Long Term Durability
Synthetic turf is a smart solution for overused, unsafe playing fields. A grass field simply cannot remain lush and resilient if it is used more than three to four days a week, or in the rain, or during the six months of the year when grass doesn’t grow – otherwise the surface will become an unsafe, rock-hard, dirt field.
Where To Use Artificial Turfs
Okay so those were the why to's. What about the where to's? What places can actually use these turfs, and how do they help? Let's see:
- Sports facilities
Artificial turf designed for sports is tough. It has to be, to withstand the volume of running feet, cleats, and types of grinding plant-and-turn moves players make during a hectic game. It is also far safer than natural grass, reducing injuries under any conditions and also allowing play to continue when conditions are wet.
- Hotels
Many hotels already use artificial grass in their garden and around the swimming pools. Often, hotels are not allowed to irrigate, in order to save water. With artificial grass, there will always be a perfectly green garden, while saving up to 70% on water consumption. But they also save a lot on maintenance!
- Houses
Garden upkeep can be a major problem. You have to mow the turf, spray the grass, etc. Our solution: lay artificial grass around your residence. Artificial grass is also pet proof and very pet friendly. So that's a plus point if you have pets.
- Decking
Artificial grass is ideal for a caravan site. Create a clean and maintenance free green area at your caravan site. It can be used safely by your children and pets. Even when it rains, they don’t bring mud in your caravan anymore. That is what we call a hassle free holiday.
- Public Places like Airports
Artificial grass is a smart solution for beautifying public spaces such as highway medians and airport landing strips that would otherwise be difficult and expensive to maintain. It reduces city maintenance costs, freeing tax dollars for other purposes.Conclusion
A true outdoor carpet, artificial grass directly addresses the primary environmental concerns of real turf. It requires no watering, no mowing, and no feeding. The life expectancy of artificial turf can be upwards of 25 years, making it a less costly alternative to real turf over its life span. Also, artificial turf doesn't freeze in the winter or thin out in the summer.
