We decided to use GST’s Silica Sand infill for our artificial turf, and it has made a significant difference. It helps keep the blades standing upright, giving the grass a natural, freshly mowed look while improving drainage. The application was easy, and it has prevented any matting or flattening of the turf even after months of use. It also makes the turf more durable, ensuring it stays looking great despite regular foot traffic. If you want your artificial lawn to last and look its best, this infill is a must!
The only difference between regular silica sand and green sands are the color and price: our green sand is coated with green color which can technically blend in better with the artificial grass. Since the green sands take extra steps of coating and drying, the cost is higher than regular silica sand.

Read Answer: Silica sand vs Green sand?
This is a very good question. The short answer is NO, the sand infills won't be messy once applied onto the artificial grass. On average, we recommend to use 1.5-2 lbs of infills for all artificial grass installations. Such amount of infills will sink straightly to the bottom part of artificial grass surface, under normal circumstances, the infills will be barely visible at all. Most of installations of artificial turf, it will be hard to see and feel the infills unless you spread the fibers and look for the infills. By that said, there is no concerns whatsoever that infills will make your artificial grass messy. One point I would like to make here is that if your installation is on a rather steep slop, from time to time, your infills can be washed out down the slope in such case, you might notice infills toward lower end of the slope. I always recommend to add additional infills if such washed away situations happen. However, if your installation is on a slope without much of usage or traffic, you can less worry about adding infills periodically.
