I want to thank Global Syn Turf for taking great care of me.  I called them and asked them for an estimate to installation turf in my backyard and they sent our their dealer for the Los Angeles area to help me.  The distributor brought me samples of turf and offered me a free estimate for artificial turf installation..I compared it to some of the other local estimate in the area and they were the cheapest.  I offers them a deposit and they did not take it and told me that a the end of the installation if I was happy with the work I could pay in full at that time.  I wan t to thank Global syn Turf for their fantastic service and turf.

My brother and I have been doing landscaping as of last year and we've been testing out different turf suppliers to see if we can find a go to in the long run. So far we've tried a few small ones and GST. The difference is quite noticeable, GST has a lot more locations and their processing speed is probably 10x faster at any given time. I haven't had any problems so far which is great and I hope it stays that way. So far, GST is looking like a strong long term candidate to be our permanent future supplier.

Global Syn Turf is a manufacturer of artificial turf and one of the countries largest distributors of artificial turf with 10 distribution centers nationwide.  I was googling artificial turf companies looking for a turf company that had turf in stock by me.  Most artificial turf companies were not the manufacturer but installers for manufacturers that wanted to install my turf.  I am glad I found Global Syn Turf because I wanted to know who the artificial turf company was and get a manufacturers warranty, not one from an installer.  Global Syn Turf does not sell artificial turf to the public or install artificial turf and that is why they referred me to 3 different turf dealers in my area and let me choose.  I received samples and install bids from all three companies.  All three companies were prominent well none companies in my area.  I didn't realize they carried artificial turf.  I choose the company that I felt I connected with the most and that I felt was going to do the best job.  They happened to have the price that was not the highest and not the lowest, but right in the middle and I was ok with that.  I want to thank Global Syn Turf for their professionalism and national network of dealers.

Whenever I need turf for a job, I can always rely on the GST team to provide the best in both quality and selection. They turfs and infills I need are always in stock and transaction process is super smooth. Very efficient order processing team as well. I'm located right next to the Santa Fe Springs warehouse, so I can always pick up rather than ship my turf which saves a lot in shipping in the long run as well. Got everything I'm looking for in a solid turf supplier!

There is something about a company that goes above and beyond the call of duty in their industry.  Global Syn Turf has simply gone above and beyond what they were required to do.  I am a contractor and I had a 40,000 sq. ft. project come on to my desk.  The job needed to be installed in three weeks and the owner was desperate to find a contractor that could come up with all that turf in the same dye lot and get it installed.  I called around to a few different manufactures to see who had that amount of artificial turf int he same dye lot.  I found Global Syn Turf online and called them right away as they said they were a manufacturer and had 10 distribution centers nationwide.  I called them and told them the specifications of the artificial turf I needed and needed 40,000 sq. ft. in a couple of weeks.  Low and behold they had all 40,000 sq. ft. in the warehouse right here in the bay area and all in the same dye lot.  No one else i called had even half that amount of turf in stock int he same dye lot.  Global Syn Turf provided me the name and number of their artificial turf distributor here in the bay area.  We processed the order for the full amount of the turf and it was delivered to the job site and I completed the job right on time.  Because Global Syn Turf was so amazing I made a lot of money and acquired a customer for life.

I really have to thank Global Syn Turf first for the free samples.  Secondly for introducing us to their Orange County Distributor.  Frank and his team were absolutely fantastic.  They helped me re-design my backyard from the planters, to the new artificial turf and the putting green.  They created a video that showed me what my yard would look like when everything was changed and installed.  The video was so realistic and blew my mind.  It would let you change the type of turf and where the putting green was, etc.  Once I put my deposit down it took about 1 week before they got to my yard to start the installation.  Once they started the foreman walked the yard with me and told me exactly what was going to happen, how long it would take and what to expect.  He told me that if anything was going the way we discussed or if I had questions to stop him and his crew immediately to make sure they do it right and more importantly the way I wanted it.  Frank and his team were so professional, always on time and left my property in excellent condition.  They helped me design a putting green that looked like the 18th hole at our local country club.  Now when our club friends come over it is great to see the look on their face when they notice it is the same.  Thanks again to Global Syn Turf and their local dealer for all that you do.

Whether you love or hate GST, it's hard to overlook the fact that they have the BIGGEST selection of both turf and accessories. I've ordered hundreds of infill sands from them and the quality has remained consistent throughout every time. I like having a lot of different options to choose from because sometimes customers can be very picky and want a certain color, quality, blade height, etc. I never have issues finding the right turf for a customer because GST literally offers everything on the turf market.

I recently got into contact with Greg, who I believe is a sales rep for GST. He introduced the idea of offering turf for my landscaping business and gave me a very detailed breakdown of what I needed and what to expect. I got a few samples of the popular turfs such as the S blade and Pet turf to test the waters for the first few months. My customers loved it and now I'm wondering which turf's to offer next. The big selection makes it hard to choose just a few from but I'd rather have more options than less for sure.

I want to give a special thanks to Joe, Edgar and Jose of the crew that installed my beautiful yard.  I wanted artificial grass in my backyard for over 1 year now.  I found Global Syn Turf online and really liked their website.  I started playing with their Lawn Size Checker to see how much square footage I had to see about how much it would cost to have my yard installed with artificial turf.  Once I knew the size of my lawn I used the Installation cost app on the website that showed me how much it might cost to have my artificial turf installed.  Then you can use the cost and savings app to show how much money you save my installing artificial turf.  How much money do you save my not using water.  How much money do you save by not having a gardener.  How much money do you  save by not re sodding your yard.  The list goes on and on.  It absolutely saves you money to have artificial turf installed in yard.  The question is how many years does it take to recoup your investment.  I called Global Syn Turf and asked them for a quote to have artificial turf installed.  They said they were manufacturers of artificial turf and did not sell direct and could refer us to a dealer in our area.  That is how I met Joe and his team that did an outstanding job and I couldn't appreciate them more and would refer them to anyone looking to get artificial turf installed.

If you haven't already, check out GST's Riviera and S blade series. It's some of the best turf on the market at the moment and you won't find much better in the same price bracket. These guys helped me scale my company 10 fold and I'm so glad I went with their turf. It sells out extremely quick here so I always need to restock on a constant basis. Their order processing team is quick to respond and can get my orders in ASAP, often times the same day which is very efficient. Overall a solid company, would highly recommend trying their S blade and RM series.

It took forever to find a reliable turf supplier especially during this pandemic. I used to buy from a few smaller suppliers but recently they've been very inconsistent with their inventory so I decided to give GST a try. My first impression was that every transaction was very smooth and never had any issues. It definitely took me by surprise because I was so used to putting up with inconsistencies in my day to day operations that I never saw it as a big issue. Now that I've had the GST experience, I'm never going back, it was just way too much headache dealing with unreliable suppliers.

Can someone help me get artificial turf and accessories in Bakersfield.  Global Syn Turf was my company.  After calling no less than 20 different companies I found Global Syn-Turf that answered their phone on the very first ring.  I told them my conundrum that I could not find artificial turf and accessories in Bakersfield, CA.  They immediately put me in contact with their artificial turf distributor in Bakersfield.  Global Syn Turf said they are a manufacturer and don't sell direct to the public.  I called the dealer in Bakersfield and they too picked up the phone in one ring.  They told me they have stock of artificial turf and accessories and to come down and take a look for they would have samples shipped to my home.  I went in to their store and they had a very nice display rack with 10 different artificial turf, a artificial ivy sample key ring, a very nice menu of accessories and boxes and boxes of free samples.  I spoke with the representative there and he referred to two different installers name in the area that would give me a free quote to install my artificial turf.  I got a bid and hired the contractor, bought my turf from the Bakersfield dealer.  They delivered my artificial turf in one day and the installation began.  I want to thank Global Syn Turf for being a real company with real service.

I am an engineer by trade in the Bay Area and I can be a little demanding in the products and services I receive.  I wanted to put artificial turf in my side yard so as usual I did an extensive amount of research.  I found a company called Global Syn Turf that is headquartered here in the greater bay area.  They are a manufacturer of artificial grass and ivy, but also sell the accessories need for an install.  Their website was very impressive and gave me so much information about artificial turf.  99% of all the artificial turf websites out there have little to no real content.  The Global Syn Turf website offered me many different pictures of each one of their artificial turf skus and there had to be at least 25.  As I found out they actually research and design all of the artificial turf they make.  I also found out they are fully integrated which means they make their own yarn, extrude their own yard, tuft the yarn into the back and coat the backing.  They manufacturer the process beginning to end and don't rely on anyone else.  The website also posts full Specification Sheets and all the tests you can imagine for the turf.  They even have a test that shows the turf is Lead and Heavy Metal Free.  I know this has been a big issue for artificial turf in the past according to my research and they have the test right there for you to see.  Global Syn Turf does not sell direct so they referred me to a distributor that was close to my house who took great care of me.  I want to give Global Syn Turf a thumbs up for being a complete company.

I've been around in the landscaping industry for well over a decade and I can confidently say that GST offers some of the best turf out there. I find that they have the best balance of high quality and low pricing, which is really all it comes down to at the end of the day. It's hard to find quality of the same level for cheaper and even if you do, they'll most likely be a smaller supplier with inconsistent inventory. I also love how they have locations all over the US since my company has branches on the east coast as well. Big vouch from me.

I was traveling a few weeks ago and saw this artificial ivy at a restaurant I was at and loved it.  When I came home from my trip I googled artificial ivy and found Global Syn Turf and saw their artificial ivy.  They have 6 different types to choose from.  2 are bigger and 4 are a bit smaller.  I have samples sent to my home for my review.  The 2 larger ones are large leafs and a little more sturdy.  However I didn't think they looked as real.  The smaller ones were more of what I was looking for.  I really liked the Hawthorn Hedge and its color.   I hung the pieces on my back fence and looked at them and confirmed I liked the Hawthorn Hedge and called Global Syn Turf to order 400 square feet of the ivy and they told me they were the manufacturer and only sold through distributors.  They referred me to their dealer her in Los Angeles.  I went down to their showroom and saw the ivy on the walls and confirmed even more the Hawthorn Hedge is what I liked.  I placed an order and took it home with me.  Now the ivy is on my chain link fence and it was so easy to install and creates so much privacy from my neighbors.   I want to thank Global Syn Turf and their beautiful ivy.

I reached out to GST early 2019 and became a distributing partner. We have a few chain locations across the US so we wanted to find a supplier that had that same nationwide presence. Luckily, GST also has a lot of locations all over the US so we were able to get the turf we needed on a consistent basis. GST is also fairly large (maybe even the biggest) so scaling will never be an issue when it comes to growing our business. Overall I love the turf that you guys offer and hope to see what's in store for the future.

In my opinion, GST is a decent supplier for turf and turf accessories. I never have any major issues using their business but if I were to improve one thing, it would be to add more putting greens. My company focuses mainly on golfing fields and accessories so I would like to have more selection to choose from. Not that 3 is a little, but in my eyes a 5 star is perfection and I think GST will be there soon when more putting greens are added to their arsenal.

The turf from GST has always been my favorite due to how easy it is to install. Most of the clients I work with don't even need a professional installer unless they have no experience with turf at all. Looking through the previous reviews, it's pretty clear that they have a huge selection to choose from, probably even the biggest on the market at the moment. When I order from GST, I never get insecure feelings about not being able to find the right grass for the right job. I just know they'll have whatever I need and that I'll be taken care of by their team. 5 stars from me.

I want to thank Global Syn Turf for not putting pressure on me to have my turf installed.  I just wanted to buy artificial turf and have my gardener install it to save some money.   Global Syn Turf had no problem with this because they do not install artificial turf they only sell it through their dealers.  Global Syn Turf referred me to their artificial turf installer for Orange County, CA.  They were very professional and very proficient in their work.  Paul and his crew were very professional and always on time.  I want to give Global Syn Turf and their artificial turf dealer Paul and his crew for a job well done.  I gave them four out of five stars for the professionalism and expertise of the work they do.  Thanks again.

I want to thank Global Syn Turf and their artificial turf distributor here in Long Beach for transforming my backyard into a beautiful oasis.  Joe and his crew were fantastic, hardworking and always on time.  My artificial turf  is soft and clean for my kids and dogs to play on.  There are not chemicals needed, no pesticides, etc.  The turf is non allergic and doesn't make you itchy.  It is safe, non toxic, lead free and it won't hurt the kids or dogs.  Year round the grass is green with little to no maintenance and never tracks mud or dirt into the house.  They also mentioned the artificial turf is fire retardant.  It will melt at 250 degrees, but will not catch fire.  I just love my turf and want to thank everyone for helping me with my yard.

The customers near where I do installations are a good mix of rural and residential. Lately I've noticed a lot of customers ordering turf for their farms. I've heard that if you put the pet turf under most farm animals, it makes the cleaning process a lot easier. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback from residential customers as well. I recently just became a partner, so I'm not too familiar with all the accessories yet. Still doing my research on the different infills to see which one's I should offer in the future. So far so good though, loving the turf!

The thing that separates GST from the rest of the competition is that they have amazing sales reps. They know the game inside out and I can always rely on them to give me the best advice whether it's regarding installation, turf selection, or turf accessories. I recently had a customer that was interested in bed rock edging and I had never done a job like that before, so I asked Lee from GST how I would install something like that. He gave me a detailed breakdown of what I needed to do and it came out perfectly. Can't thank you guys enough, saved me many times.

I want to thank Global Syn Turf for referring me their distributor here in San Diego.  I wanted to surprise my husband with a putting green in our backyard before he came back from active duty.  The dealer here in San Diego was so great as he helped me design the putting green and backyard synthetic turf.  He also rushed his crew to get the job finished in time before my husband returned from overseas.  Todd the owner of the company took a lot of time to help with the undulation of the green which means the slope of the green.  Our green is not flat it has slight undulations which create different breaks when the ball is putted.  We have five putting green holes, some with left to right breaks, some with right to left breaks, some uphill puts and some downhill putts.  Todd even ordered us some lights that go in the putting green cups that light up the hole, the pole and the flag.  The light is actually bright enough that it lights up most of the backyard when the other lights are out.  If I could send pictures of what  great job Todd did I would post them.  We took a lot of before pictures of our backyard and after pictures.  The yard looks amazing.  My husband came home last night and saw his new putting green lit up in the backyard.  Of course he was happy to see his family, but he was very happy to see his new putting green.

I want to thank Global Syn Turf for all their help and patience with my backyard artificial turf project.  I am so picky and particular with everything and I know I may seam difficult at times.  My great experience with Global Syn Turf started with a very nice Sales Rep at Global Syn Turf named Clint.  He was very smart and very informative about artificial grass.  He sent me some samples and made recommendations that were very helpful to me.  I was torn between the Super Sierra 94 and the Super Natural 80 and din't know what to do.  Clint referred me to The Global Syn Turf Distributor and Installer in Orange County.  This is where I met Joe and he sent me to 8 different turf installations that used the Super Sierra 94 and the Super Natural 80.  This told the real story, after seeing the artificial turf installed I was convinced the Super Natural 80 was the turf for me.  Joe is the most attentive installer and once again was very patience with how particular I am.  He took the time to really explain exactly was the procedure and the process would be installing my artificial turf yard.  He told me exactly how high the turf would be over the hardscape, how much tear out he was taking out, how much base he would use, how compacted the base would be, what he was going to do with the sprinklers, how well he would clean when the job was done, what time he and his crews would show up and leave each day.  Joe was my guy and followed through with everything he promised.  I would refer Global Syn Turf and the Orange County dealer installer Joe anytime.

I wanted to buy turf and have my husband and boys do the installation to save money.  I want synthetic grass for my kids and dogs to play on in my backyard.  My neighbors have it and I just love giving over to their house and walking on their turf.  They referred me to the company they bought it from called Global Syn Turf.  I called Global Syn Turf and spoke with a representative on the phone that was very informative.  She said they were a manufacturer and not an installer and could only sell the artificial turf through a dealer or distributor.  They referred me a dealer in the bay area who sent me samples.  I really enjoyed the Do It Yourself tips on their website.  They have tips on how to install the artificial turf in the yard, on a patio and even a rooftop deck.  There are different tricks you can do to make your yard looked striped by power booming your grass in different directions.  Another tip is to compact the crushed rock aggregate base in 3 inch increments because the vibrating plate is not effective in compacting more than  that at a time.  Your also supposed to cut the artificial turf from the backing and never from the top.  Your supposed to nail the grass about 1" from the edge of your hardscape and every 6-8" along the sides.  One of the most important tips is putting an efficient amount of infill in the artificial grass.  Depending on the total weight of your artificial turf you should put between 1.5 to 3 pounds of infill per square foot in your lawn.  Depending on the infill it can get rid of pet urine, make the grass cooler, make the grass stand up straight, hide seam, etc.  I recommend everyone call Global Syn Turf and check out their website.

There are many things you need to consider before buying artificial.  To name a few you need to find a good artificial turf company you want to work with and you think are worthy of your business.  Next, what Kind of turf you want in your yard.  Do you want tall, short, light green, dark green, with brown thatch, green thatch or no thatch at all.  Do you want nylon or Polypropylene?  Do you want multi color configurations or one color grass.  Do you want soft turf or do you want stiff blade high traffic area turf?  Do you want to keep your sprinklers in for cooling and rinsing the turf.  Now you can see there a lot of things you need to considering when buying artificial turf.  

Here is what I did.  I gave a 5 star rating to Global Syn Turf for being the actual artificial turf manufacturer and giving me a real manufacturer's warranty for 15 years.  They sent me a lot of artificial turf samples for free and the representative on the phone walked me through all their different turf choices.  I ended up purchasing the SuperNatural 80 through their artificial turf dealer in Los Angles.  Thanks again...

Turf is perfect in California no matter the weather conditions. We recently got out of a drought in which we saw a lot of people's lawn's slowly die over time. Not only was turf great for that time, but it also helped save water. Nowadays, we get some rain here and there, which from what I've heard, helps clean the turf naturally. Even on days when the weather is extremely hot, GST turf doesn't seem to have any issues for my customers.

Whenever customers ask me what kind of turf I recommend, I always ask them what the purpose is. 90% of them usually first time buyers looking to replace their lawn. I always tell them that you can't go wrong with the Riviera Monterey series from GST. At this point, it's become the go to turf if you want something that's good quality, reasonably priced, and aesthetically pleasing. I recommend GST to my own customers, so I definitely would recommend them to anyone.

I wanted to get artificial turf and I wanted to find something that wasn't hot.  I know artificial turf gets hot because my neighbor has turf and it gets hot in the sun.  I found a company called Global Syn Turf online that has a turf called Cool Blue that has a hollow blade that holds water and in turn making the artificial turf cooler.  They also told me they have a turf infill that makes the turf 30-50 degrees cooler.  The infill is called T-Cool and it absorbs water and evaporates the water over the next 2-3 days making the turf cooler.  I only know this because I have the Cool Blue installed in my yard with the T-Cool infill in my backyard.  The representative at Global Syn Turf recommended the whole set up for me.  They said I did not need Pet Turf for my dogs and that all artificial turf is pet friendly.  I want to thank Global Syn Turf and their distributor in Riverside who did an amazing job installing the turf.

I just had artificial turf installed by the local Global Syn Turf distributor.  I have two dogs and ordered the Pet Turf.  Their Pet Turf is shorter and has three times as many holes in the backing for great drainage.  The drainage rate of this turf is one of the best I have found when shopping for turf for my yard.  This Pet Turf is 1.25" tall which makes ti easy for the dogs to run and most importantly easy to pick up after them.  The stitch gauge is .375" wide which gives this turf a very tight weave which I found works better for the dogs vs. a turf with very loose and wide spread blades.  The Pet Turf has a 77 oz. per sq. yd. weight which makes this a very sturdy hefty turf.  The color is a beautiful Emerald Green and Olive Green.  The blades are evenly dispersed throughout which makes it look real and natural.  I also found this turf is to be very slip resistant especially when it is wet.  When my turf is wet and the dogs are running they never slide around and seem to grip the the turf very well.  This turf has a curly thatch blade as well which is green and brown.  The brown turf really makes the artificial turf look natural.  The turf is lead and heavy metal free and lastly it is non flammable.  Yes it has a melting point but it will not catch fire which give me a comfort level.  Lastly, I spoke with a representative at Global Syn Turf and their distributor about cleaning and disinfecting.  Both parties were consistent in their message about cleaning.  They said you need to rinse the synthetic turf often to flush the dog urine through the turf to the natural soils.  You also have to use a disinfect to disinfect the artificial turf on occasion.  I asked how often do you need to do this and they told me if I ever smell urine in my backyard.  That might mean every week or every two months.  It depends on the size of your yard, the size of the dog as to how often you may need to disinfect.  They said to spray a good disinfectant on the artificial turf and don't dilute the liquid, let is sit on the turf for 2-3 hours and then rinse it very well.  If you stay on top of this it should last you a life time.  Well I am giving Global Syn Turf 5 Stars for this fabulous looking artificial turf.
