Advantages of Artificial Grass

All-weather use

A lot of rain can turn natural grass into a muddy mess, making it unsafe and often out-of-bounds for students. Some areas can take days to dry out before students are free to play again.

Artificial grass is great in all weather. The grass is perforated, so when it rains the water drains away quickly and won’t leave puddles and mud like it would with natural grass. It is critical to install adequate drainage if the existing system in inadequate

This means the students can get back outside quicker and teachers don’t have to worry about them walking muddy footprints back into the classroom after break time.

On the other hand, hot and dry weather can dry out natural grass and turn into a dust bowl, so installing UV protected artificial grass will ensure it stays looking great and dust free throughout the hottest days of the year.

Safer playground

Artificial Turf isn’t slippery and can even include an impact-absorbing layer which helps lessen the impact when children fall while playing on playground equipment. When well maintained, it will also ensure the ground under the playground is free of sticks, stones and other debris that could hurt children during play.

Reduced allergies

Many children are sensitive to grass/turf and have allergies from pollen, grass seeds or insects. Installing artificial grass is a great way to minimise allergic reactions as it is hypoallergenic and if washed frequently, dust free.

Less maintenance

It’s an obvious fact that artificial grass requires less maintenance than regular, natural grass. There’s no need to worry about mowing, trimming edges, fertilising, weeding or watering, which will save your school a lot of money in the long run. Your grass will look great all year round with very little effort.

Maintaining artificial grass is easy as it’s stain resistant and tough. You only need to use a hose, or at most a brush to remove dirt and dust. A yearly professional clean and brush is certainly recommended for maximum life expectancy

Durable

There’s always going to be high-traffic in school play areas, so it makes sense to use a surface that is durable. Natural grass isn’t always the best option for high-traffic areas as it becomes worn out and needs replacing, whereas artificial grass can withstand heavy-traffic and is built to last year after year.
