We went with Full Recycle-91 for its eco-friendly design and were pleasantly surprised by how good it looks. It feels durable underfoot and has held up well through Oregon’s rainy spring. Feels good knowing it’s recycled and built to last
Great question! This response will contain a lot of information, so let’s break it down into two sections, starting with the “clean” factor regarding different types of plastics. Hypothetically, let’s assume that the product was made of 100% recycled materials. Depending on how the materials are re-processed, post-consumer is usually the least “clean” when compared to virgin or actual plastic because of the variability of the feedstock. Even with blending, which adds overall strength, neither post-consumer nor post-industrial recycled materials can ever achieve 100% of mechanical properties of virgin materials. The degradation of these properties has a direct effect on safety factors and long term performance measures such as fatigue. This is not to say recycled plastics cannot be used in various applications, but does explain why recycled materials often have lower safety ratings. In other words, theoretically, you could have a 100% recycled material product. However, this product would never pass safety tests due to how weak the material would be. At GST, while we do care about the environment, safety is ALWAYS a top priority, as can be seen on our lead and UV testing results.

There are two main components of artificial grass surface: straight fibers/blades and thatching. The straight fiber/blades are the parts replicating the real grass, they are straight, green. Thatching is the curled part of the artificial grass, most of the thatching are two colors: brown and green. Artificial grass' thatching has two main functions:
Read Answer: What is a thatching? Does it affect the way the turf looks?
Generally speaking the thatch of artificial grass has two main purpose: 1. To help the turf fibers standing up; 2. To make the turf look more natural. Hopefully this answers your question, and please let us know if you have any other concerns by phone or email: [email protected].

The blade shape of artificial grass won’t be judged to be realistic or not, but the overall appearance of the turf will need to be as realistic as possible when it comes to the design and manufacturing of artificial grass. In general, artificial turf’s individual blades are smaller/narrower than a single strand of real grass, replicating individual blade to real grass is not an ideal approach and too costly. Our goal is to make the turf’s overall appearance and feel as close to real grass as possible. All of our turf products are as close to “real” as it can be, to name the most realistic one: our SuperNatural series which a product with multiple colored blades and different shapes.
