Which Infill is the Right Option for Artificial Pet Turf?
March 28, 2023
Contrary to popular belief, artificial turf is an excellent option for dog owners! Replacing your natural grass with quality synthetic turf gives your pets a soft, natural-looking space they’ll love and easy maintenance you need. And with no pests or pesticides, turf helps keep your furry friends as happy and healthy as possible.
To help get the most out of your artificial pet turf system, make sure to choose an infill that’s designed for pets (and what they leave behind). To help you make the right choice, here’s our guide to selecting the right infill for your pet areas.
Infill That Enhances Your Artificial Turf’s Durability
As much as we love our dogs, they can take a severe toll on your yard. From their constant running around to digging to using the restroom, your artificial turf needs to be able to stand up to it all.
In addition to choosing a high-quality artificial pet turf system, a great infill will help protect and preserve the strength and life of your lawn. Durable options like silica-coated sand will support the blades, protect the backing material and ensure proper drainage.
Antimicrobial Properties & Odor Prevention
Accidents happen; keep your lawn clean and odor-free by choosing an infill with antimicrobial properties! Options like Zeolite Max infill use non-toxic, biodegradable granules to trap and neutralize ammonia-based odors, keeping your lawn fresher, longer.
Synthetic Grass Infill That Improves Drainage
In addition to odor-eliminating properties, artificial turf pet systems should include highly efficient drainage. This will ensure that pet urine, rainwater and other liquid waste washes through your turf quickly to prevent flooding and mold.
