01 Application of artificial grass in landscape
In recent years, my country's artificial grass industry has developed rapidly, and it has been widely used because it is not affected by the environment and is easy to care for.
At present, the artificial grass on the market is mainly divided into two categories: sports grass and landscape leisure grass. Sports grass is mostly used for football fields, hockey fields, golf courses, gate courts, etc.; landscape leisure grass is mostly used for indoor and outdoor leisure places, activity places, roof gardens, three-dimensional greening, etc. Compared with natural grass, artificial grass can also bring you good results in places where natural grass cannot grow.
02 Materials of artificial grass
Artificial grass is mostly processed from polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), but also polyvinyl chloride and polyamide. The height of grass silk varies from 8mm to 75mm. Compared with natural grass, the unique natural properties of artificial grass make it far superior to natural grass in terms of appearance and use effect.
Artificial grass silk style
Straight Grass: Straight fiber artificial grass filaments can be used to create a natural turf appearance and are ideal for football fields or temporary football stadiums.
Curved grass: The curved structure stabilizes sand and infill more effectively and maintains a consistent sod shape on the lawn surface. Therefore, these turfs can bear more severe use requirements and have higher practicability.
03 Advantages of artificial grass
Experience: waterproof, non-slip, real grass appearance, comfortable foot feel, unique pleasant experience;
Engineering: breathable and permeable, finished product construction, fixed and short construction period, easy to control construction quality, and convenient later maintenance;
Cost: Durable, with a lifespan of 5-10 years, and the maintenance cost is extremely low in the later period;
Environmental protection: no noise, safe and non-toxic, the surface layer can be recycled and reused for life.
04 Attention points and problems of artificial grass
1. The strength and wear resistance of the backing are not enough, which will cause the artificial grass to lose wire or break;
2. The color of artificial grass is uneven, and chromatic aberration occurs;
3. If the color fades after sunlight exposure, its stability and color fastness must be considered;
Fourth, the grass silk is not bright enough, and the frictional static is very strong, which will produce texture;
5. The choice of adhesive will affect the construction and process of the arched package.
05 The development trend of artificial grass
1. Application of sports venues (football field, rugby field, golf, etc.);
2. Application in kindergartens and playgrounds;
3. Roof gardens and high-rise roof decoration applications;
4. Application of indoor floor decoration;
5. Application of outdoor vertical three-dimensional greening;
6. Applications in areas not suitable for large-scale planting of natural lawns such as cold and drought;
7. The application of private courtyards and outdoor leisure activity venues;
8. The application of mixed lawn in mountain and barren slope greening.
People are working hard to improve the quality of artificial turf to the same as natural turf, or even to surpass natural turf. In terms of appearance, artificial turf will be more and more close to natural grass. In the future, it can be said that it may be difficult to distinguish, and it will even be better than natural grass in terms of integrity and uniformity, but it is inevitable that they are ecologically The difference in benefits is that the ecological function of natural turf to adjust the microclimate and transform the environment cannot be replaced by artificial turf. However, with the development of artificial-natural turf comprehensive turf technology, artificial turf and natural turf will give full play to their respective advantages and learn from each other's strengths. , combined with each other, in this context, artificial turf will have a broader development prospects.
