Question 1

What Are The Materials Of Artificial Turf, And What Are Their Characteristics?

Accepted Answer

The materials used in artificial turf include polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and nylon (PA). Polyethylene has excellent performance, being soft and wear-resistant, making it the first choice for sports contact venues. Most artificial turfs use polyethylene grass filaments as the main material. Polypropylene grass filaments are relatively hard, have poor wear resistance, and result in a shorter service life of the venue, so their application range is narrow. They are generally suitable for venues such as tennis courts and basketball courts that have relatively low requirements for wear resistance. Although nylon has good wear resistance, the material is too hard and can easily scratch athletes' skin. It is mainly used in landscape grass venues and is relatively expensive, often used in high-end venues such as golf courses. When choosing artificial turf, it is necessary to select products with appropriate materials according to the usage needs and budget of the venue.

Question 2

How Long Is The Service Life Of Xygrass Artificial Turf? What Factors Affect Its Service Life?

Accepted Answer

The service life of our artificial turf is usually 6-12 years, which is affected by many factors. The duration and intensity of sports are key factors. High-frequency and high-intensity use will accelerate wear and shorten the service life. Sunlight and ultraviolet rays are also important influencing factors. Long-term strong ultraviolet radiation will cause the grass filaments to age and fade, reducing the service life. For example, in areas with high altitude and strong light, the aging speed of artificial turf is relatively faster. In addition, the condition of the base ground cannot be ignored. If the base is uneven and the drainage is poor, it will cause the bottom of the lawn to get damp, rot and crack, affecting the overall service life. Daily maintenance is also important. Regular cleaning, combing the grass filaments, and supplementing filling materials can effectively extend the service life.

Question 3

How To Maintain And Clean The Artificial Turf Daily?

Accepted Answer

3.In terms of daily maintenance, regular cleaning is required. Use a soft brush or vacuum equipment to clean up debris such as leaves and dust, at least 1-2 times a week. For high-frequency use venues, the cleaning frequency needs to be increased. You can use a professional grass combing machine to comb the grass filaments every month to prevent lodging, and the frequency can be increased in high-frequency use areas. For stain treatment, beverages, oil stains, etc. can be wiped with neutral detergent and water; stubborn stains such as blood stains and chewing gum need to be treated with special detergents. Also, regularly check the drainage system to prevent water accumulation due to blockage. Seasonal maintenance is also crucial. In hot summer weather, you can sprinkle water appropriately to cool down, reduce the aging of grass filaments, and check the glue bonding points to prevent degumming due to high temperature. After snow in winter, clean up in time to avoid compaction of snow damaging the grass filaments, and it is forbidden to use sharp tools to shovel snow to prevent scratching the artificial turf.

Question 4

What Auxiliary Materials Are Needed For Artificial Turf Paving, And How To Calculate The Dosage?

Accepted Answer

4.Auxiliary materials for artificial turf paving include glue, splicing tape, white line, rubber particles, quartz sand, etc. However, not all types of artificial turf require all auxiliary materials. Usually, leisure artificial turf only needs glue and splicing tape, without rubber particles and quartz sand. For sports venue artificial turf, the general dosage is 25kg of quartz sand and 7kg of rubber particles per square meter. Each bucket of glue is 14kg, and the dosage is about one bucket for every 200 square meters. However, the actual dosage will vary due to factors such as the condition of the venue foundation, construction technology and loss. For example, an uneven foundation will lead to an increase in the dosage of glue and filling materials; in the construction process, if the splicing is unskilled, resulting in waste of splicing tape and glue, the dosage of auxiliary materials will also exceed expectations.

Question 5

How To Choose High-Quality Artificial Turf Products?

Accepted Answer

5.XYGrass warmly reminds you that you can distinguish when choosing artificial turf products from the following aspects. In terms of appearance, high-quality artificial turf has bright colors, no color difference, flat grass seedlings, uniform tufting, and good consistency; the bottom lining has an appropriate amount of glue that penetrates into the bottom lining, and the overall is flat, with uniform stitch distance, no skipped stitches or missing stitches. In terms of hand feel, when combing the grass seedlings by hand, they should be soft and smooth, and when pressing the grass seedlings with the palm, the resilience is good, and the bottom lining is not easy to tear. The quality of the grass filaments is also crucial. You should choose grass filaments made of high-quality raw materials, which have neat openings and no burrs. In addition, attention should be paid to other materials, such as whether the glue and bottom are made of high-quality materials. At the same time, a complete service system, including professional technical support and a complete after-sales service system, is also a manifestation of reliable product quality.
