The safety of your children is doubtless a priority for you when you’re planning any serious development, renovation, or remodeling of your home. Having a green lawn is aesthetically appealing, for sure, and you don’t want a scruffy yard as it is bound to be, not only an embarrassing appendage to your home, but also a potential danger zone for little ones.
Lush green grass may be the preferred backyard option, aesthetically speaking, but for all manner of practical purposes, if you have children, you may have reason to consider some other options open to you.
For instance, perfectly trimmed green grass may not be the safety option for your children if you are installing a climbing frame, swimming pool area, or other form of play area. In fact, it may be dangerous. Natural grass is not only hard to maintain (not to mention expensive) it can also be a hard surface to fall on. The last thing a parent or caregiver wants to think about is a child being injured in their care. But injuries are all too common when kids play out of doors, and anything you can do to minimize risks should be seriously considered.
Artificial turf offers parents and caregivers a means of protecting children against injuries outdoors. Not only is artificial turf easy to maintain, because it does not need to be grown and trimmed very often, if at all, it is also a lot softer than most natural surfaces, including grass.
Synthetic grass surfaces, Fresh Cut 67 and 107, are developed with monofilament or dual-filament (67 versus 107), a polyethylene finish, sand filling, and urethane backing. The sand filling ensures that any falls are relatively low-impact. The ground youc all onto is remarkably soft, although it also feels natural and is pleasant to look a t. If you’re going for heavy duty outdoor play, such as with an at home day care, you can invest in something even more durable and specifically designed to provide a protective surface for kids to run around and have fun.
In fact, we also offer a range of turfs designed for sporting activities, including the Player’s Choice, Plush One, Putt One, True Putt, All Sport, Sport Turf, True Putt, Special, T-Turf.
Your basic components of the synthetic turf tends to include:
-
Grass fiber or artificial turf that provides the top-layer.
-
Granulated Rubber, which gives the ground a soft feel and makes it easier to walk around.
-
The Rounded Silica Sand that serves as a synthetic soil and contributes to the soft feel that makes the surface great for kids to play on.
-
The Duraflo ™ Backing System that is a mid-ground connection between the substances contained in the upper and lower ground.
-
The Levelling layer that allows the water to penetrate through the drainage zone.
-
The Drainage Zone that releases the water after it is used for the most time needed for the set up to be fed the water it needs to stay robust.
-
Geotextile that makes it easier for the nutrients from the compost ground to penetrate the upper level of the set up.
-
Natural Subgrade (Compost): This is the soil-like ground level of the entire set-up.
What you can see here is that most artificial turf is designed to be soft and supportive. It is designed with the body’s safety in mind.
Artificial turf is also very easy to install taking between about 30 and 45 minutes on average, to install surface over an area of 60 square meters.
