I purchased three of these about 5 years ago, and I love them. They clean up well, even with pets. My older dog went through a period where he used it as his bathroom, but it cleans up well with an enzyme cleaner. One reviewer mentioned issues using it over crushed rock, which wouldn't clean up as thoroughly due to leaching into the soil. Personally, I feel they wear and clean up well. They look as good as the day I purchased them and are in a heavy traffic area. I plan to purchase another one for a different area soon!
Well, this is a difficult question. All artificial grass will eventually flattened given heavy and consistent traffic, especially there’s no “breaks” between the traffics in which situation, there is no chance given for the turf to spring back up. I will recommend short diamond shaped blade turf for such applications: diamond shaped turf are typically softer and easier to lay down, but at least it will be more consistent in when they stand up or lay out in a uniformed fashion. Some of the other more stiff blades designs have much better resiliencies which handles heavy traffic well when there are breaks between traffics which allow the turf to spring back up especially such breaks given in a warm weather. Most of our artificial grass can handle normal “heavy traffics” very well, and they all have good resiliences to tend to stand back up. We assume most of the applications will be “normal”, only in rare situations, heavy consistent traffics will flatten the turf down fast and hard to brush them back up: this is very similar as placing something heavy on a carpet, a pressing mark will present, consistent heavy traffic without stop will make it difficult for the turf to keep standing up regardless which type you choose. Again, in such cases, short and softer products will be my recommendation.

Installing artificial grass for high traffic area, you always need to be aware that turf will lay down due to the high traffics: most of our products are with engineered blades which provides excellent resiliency and stands up well under normal use, but given excessive traffics, all fibers will eventually lay down. Artificial grass fibers laying down is not necessarily a bad thing or a problem, it is very normal and people need to have a proper expectation for that. If you pay attentions to most sport fields, especially the ones being used on a consistent base, grass fibers will always being down, this is absolutely normal. In short, you can definitely use artificial grass for high traffic area, but you need to have proper expectations of grass fibers being down instead of standing up straight at and after traffic.

We use polyurethane glue to secure artificial grass fibers into the polypropylene primary backing, it is very strong to hold both the straight yarn and the thatch in place. All of our artificial grass products have gone through the tuft bind test which shows how strong the glue rose hold the fibers, and our grass performs very well and all exceeding industrial standards. You will be able to find all the tuft bind tests under each product’s page, or you can see the testing information on all of our products: https://www.globalsynturf.com/artificial-grass-specifications-specs

If on an average you spend more than 2 hours daily on the artificial grass, we consider it as high traffic. Artificial lawns, like real grass lawns, are not walked on as frequent or long as you would think, especially for residential applications. Front yard in particular gets much less traffic, back yards and pet areas will have much more usage. Again, my analysis are good for most cases, however, if your project is any different, please feel free to give us call at 877 796 8873 or email us at [email protected], thank you.
