Our company maintains the local dog park and we recently replaced all the old grass with GST pet turf. Couldn't be happier with the results. The quality difference is truly night and day compared to the old grass that we used to have.

Title says it all. Solid company. Solid turf. Solid service. 

I've worked with many turf suppliers in the past and I can tell you it's not about how much "better" one supplier is than another, it's how much headache they can save you from. When I ask myself if I like GST as a turf supplier, I instantly think back to the last 3 months and how there have been little to no issues, which is rare for us. This is one of the leading indicators for us personally but I suggest trying them out yourself. They offer great grass products after all, so there's not much to lose.

 Global Syn turf is a manufacturer of artificial turf and features over 50 different skus of import and American-made Turf. They also make artificial Ivy and they feature six different skus. The ivy was very interesting to me as a privacy panel to go on the chain link fence in my backyard to help with privacy. I had some samples sent to my house and they emailed me some instructions on how to install the artificial Ivy. It was easier than I thought and that all you do is zip tie the artificial turf to the chain link fence. I really like the Hawthorn Hedge as it reminded me of a dichondra ground cover. I also thought the color look more realistic as well. I went to go buy some of the artificial Ivy for my chain link fence and Global Syn Turf told me they did not sell direct they only sold through distribution. So they referred me to a dealer in my area which I contacted and placed the order that day right over the phone. But ivy showed up on my front doorstep four days later and that we can I install the artificial ivy on my chain link fence. I want to thank Global Syn Ivy and recommend them to anyone looking for artificial Ivy. They will send you free samples and I recommend you take a look at it and look at the application pictures on their website.

My customers love GST turf. A lot of them ask me before they buy if extreme heat or cold weathers can affect the turf and I always tell them that they have nothing to worry about with your products. Especially since you have the crucial testing done on your grass, I can just show them that and everyone has peace of mind. We also buy from a couple smaller suppliers as well, but they frequently run out of stock and have issues getting our orders out in a timely manner. Both of which are a big headache. Now we mostly just order syn turf and only go with other suppliers for niche instances.

It's easy to find a turf vendor, but it's hard to find long term consistency. GST always has what we need in stock and we never have to worry about inventory issues. It's also nice that they have locations all over the nation, many of which are very close to our locations as well. It all works out very nicely and I'm glad we found you guys on Google.

Lately there's been a surge in demand for turf even in cities. My landscaping customers are doing serious remodeling inside their homes during quarantine and requested that I add GST grass to my arsenal. GST has incredible looking turf and there are plenty of shades to choose from as well.

I have been researching forever to find out who has turf in the Chicago market.  I know this is not the mecca for turf and we are seasonal, but I am glad I found Global Syn Turf.  They referred me their local dealer here in Chicago and they hooked me up.  I want to thank Global Syn Turf for making great products and having local representation by me.

Being involved in the sports industry opens your field of view to a lot of different types of turfs. GST has a trainers turf that blows the competition out of the water in terms of quality and pricing. The density seems just right for sports such as soccer or football. I'm picky about the feel of my turf when it comes to competitive sports, so I choose GST.

I have been doing my research for an artificial turf company that would sell me turf for my roof top deck here in Chicago.  I was especially was concerned about drainage and the heat factor.  In the winter months we get lots of rain and in the summer it actually gets very hot.  I found Global Syn Turf online and called and spoke with Jerry.  Jerry knew a lot about turf including roof top applications, drainage and heat.  Once I spoke with Jerry at this company knew I had found my company and did not need to look any further.  Jerry reminded me that Global Syn Turf was the manufacturer of the artificial turf and that I had to work with their distributor in Chicago.  I called the Chicago turf dealer and purchased the artificial turf, drainage tile and the new turf cooling infill T-Cool.  Thank you Global Syn Turf for your great turf, expertise and network of friendly turf distributors.

Many thanks to the crew for getting my backyard installed in time before our party last Saturday.  The job had to be done before retirement party we were having for my husband and there was a lot of pressure to get it done on time.  Tim, Craig and the rest of the crew worked 12+ hours a day to get the job done on Friday night before the party.  Now my yard is clean, beautiful and green.  Global Syn Turf and their Illinois turf group did a great job.  Call and get samples of their beautiful artificial turf.  I had the Riviera Monterey installed in my backyard as I thought it matched the natural grasses here in Illinois.  Thanks again.

I searched forever to find a company that manufactured the artificial needed to turf a tennis court.  I have a tennis court in my backyard and I wanted to convert it to an artificial grass tennis court because I knew I could not maintain a real grass tennis court.  Both of my kids are aspiring tennis players competing in the Junior Tennis League and I thought how great would it be to turf the tennis court.  Global Syn Turf referred me their dealer here in Illinois and they had a guy that had installed several Tennis courts in the past with artificial turf.  It turned out so amazing and plays so nice.  If I had a picture I would post it on this review just so you could see how well Mark did installing my synthetic grass putting green.  Thanks Global Syn Turf.

The Global Syn Turf dealer in Illinois installed my putting green today.  The installers new a lot about golf and worked with me every step of the way to give me exactly what I wanted.  It is important to work with the right installation team when having a putting green installed.  Putting greens have lots of idiosyncrasies that require lots of details and considerations.  My hat is off to Global Syn Turf and their dealer network.  I advise everyone to take their time and interview the artificial companies carefully and hire the one that you have the best connection with.  It is so important you work with the right company, so take your time and make the right decision.  Do me a favor and call Global Syn Turf and interview their local distributor in your area.   I hope my review help, have a great day.

I do most of my business and shopping on the internet.  I found a website called www.globalsynturf.com that had the most information.  There must be millions of websites out there and it takes so much time to find the right one.  Well I have done the work for you, go to their website.  They have installation pictures, specification sheets, testing sheets on all their turfs, huge turf selection for every type of artificial turf application, they are LEED Certified, an app to measure your lawn, cost saving calculator, installation cost calculator.  This is an all in one website and you can even order free samples.  Looks like they have 10 distribution centers nationwide and thousands of dealers nationwide who can refer you a certified installer.  This is by far the most complete and sophisticated Artificial Turf user friendly website I have seen.  This is my recommendation and referral of the day.

I successfully distribute artificial grass all over Chicago. The core of my business relies on being able to supply my customers with the synthetic turf they need to install all over the city. The turf industry is very fast-paced and competitive, and what I look for from a supplier is if they're able to be on time, deliver on their product and on their promises and if they treat their customers well. GST has time and time again shown me that they meet all of those things, which is why I mostly go to them for my distributing needs. My business grows more and more each day, and GST has been there with everything I need every step of the way.
