If you\u2019re new to <\/span>artificial turf<\/span><\/a> installation, the terminology can be overwhelming and confusing. Synthetic turf is a unique material with its own set of characteristics that can sound like a whole new language at first.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While the terms surrounding artificial turf may be new to you, they aren\u2019t complicated. In fact, much of what goes into picking out a suitable synthetic turf style can be broken down into these four key terms.<\/span><\/p>\n

Short vs. Long Pile Height<\/b><\/h2>\n

Like carpeting, different artificial turf styles have different pile heights. This term refers to the length of the turf\u2019s fibers, which impacts what applications a synthetic turf variety is best suited for.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shorter pile heights are more durable and less prone to matting, making them better for high-traffic areas like fitness centers or sports fields. Shorter blades look a bit less realistic than longer varieties.<\/span><\/p>\n

Longer pile heights have a lush, natural appearance that works best in residential, low-traffic areas. Their length makes them more prone to matting, which isn\u2019t ideal for high-use areas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Artificial Turf Face Weight<\/b><\/h2>\n

The face weight of an artificial turf variety refers to its total weight <\/span>minus the backing and infill.<\/b> Face weight is an excellent way to determine quality and fiber density and generally ranges from 30 to 90 ounces per square yard. Typically, a higher face weight will result in a more durable, lush-looking installation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Polyurethane Backing Material<\/b><\/h2>\n

Artificial turf backing is most commonly made from two materials: latex and polyurethane. Polyurethane backings are far more durable, lighter and easier to install.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The quality of your lawn\u2019s backing material is crucial, as it determines how well your artificial grass will hold up under regular use. Choosing a style with polyurethane backing will help you get the longest useful life out of your investment in artificial turf.<\/span><\/p>\n

Turf Bind<\/b><\/h2>\n

Turf bind refers to how well the synthetic blades are attached to the backing material. Artificial grass has to hold up to a lot \u2013 heavy foot traffic, pet use, harsh weather \u2013 and good turf binding is crucial to ensure adequate durability.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
