> Application

> Quality

> Pile height
Pile height refers to the length of the grass blades from above the backing to the tip. Tall pile height may looks like lush-looking lawn. However, longer grass blades will be heavier and due to the gravitational pull, will bend over themselves. Consequently, this will make your lawn look flat as time goes by. If you intend to place furniture on the turf, go for a shorter pile height as it will offer better sustainability. Remember that brushing the turf regularly to keep the blades upright is a must.
> Density and Weight
Turf density is the measurement of the amount of fiber or yarn per square unit of the turf. Dense turfs provide aesthetic appeal to the lawn and are also more durable in heavy traffic areas.
> Infill
Artificial grass is designed to be infilled to keep it looking lush. Infill also helps keep the turf springy. Rubber crumb and sand are popular infill materials and you can choose either for your turf depending on your preference and budget.
> Backing
Artificial grass has a backing that is either polyurethane or latex. The former doesn’t contract or expand while the latter can shrink or expand by 5-10 mm. As such, polyurethane backing will be a better choice in areas that experience extreme weather changes.
> Conclusion
With the information provided here, now you know what you need to consider before buying artificial grass. So don’t wait any longer; make the right decision and get the lawn that your like.
