Choosing the best artificial grass for a business or home requires understanding the different types of artificial turf that are available. At Arizona Turf Depot, our team can outline which style turf works for specific projects. The good news is that the quality and style of artificial grass continues to evolve, and AZ Turf Depot offers a wide selection to meet all landscaping needs for our customers.
Let’s look at the three materials most commonly used to make artificial grass and the unique benefits each one offers.
Nylon
Nylon is an incredibly strong material that can withstand plenty of wear and tear. That makes it great for use in heavily trafficked areas. However, it is unlikely that anyone will mistake it for the real deal. At AZ Turf Depot, our artificial turfs are typically made from polypropylene, polyethylene, or a combination of the two. Polypropylene allows our products to more closely resemble natural gras, while the polyethylene ensures the grass will live up to the long-term warranties we offer on our synthetic grass.
Polypropylene
Polypropylene artificial grass is great for anyone on a budget in search of an affordable and attractive option. With that said, it is perhaps the least durable option out of the three materials. Extreme temperatures and heavy traffic can wear it down some and require extra maintenance care. It is easy to care for, however, and is a good choice for smaller, decorative projects. We offer several turfs that includes this material such as our AZ Blend, Libra Prime grasses, and our Bermuda turf.
Polyethylene
Finally, polyethylene offers a great balance of performance and price. This is the most common choice for commercial and residential projects alike, particularly in areas where the appearance and sensation of natural grass is important. It’s also easy to care for and withstands more wear and tear than polypropylene. Samples of our products made of polyethylene include our Austin Spring and Bravo grasses and Puppy Paw Spring.
