What makes the plastic material on your artificial grass superior to the rest of the industry? I see you claim that you use a special material that is non toxic and has been tested. Can you tell me more?

The main raw materials used in artificial grass are PE (polyethylene) and PP (polypropylene) which are the resins for l a lot of plastic products. However, to make superior artificial grass, there are other agents and additives are required. To name couple, anti-UV agent which preserves the color and integrity of turf fibers from sunlights; additives to make the artificial grass more resilient and durable. During the past decades, engineers at Global Syn-Turf has developed and implemented many revolutionary technologies to hence our products which made us the company with the best and most complete product offering on today’s market.

Our Pet Turf artificial grass can drain up to 120 inches per hour which is a bout 10 times of downpours of a category 5 hurricane! Actually all of our turf can drain super well and whatever the water pour, Pet Turf’s capacity simply doubles that. One point people need to be aware is that your artificial grass drains as well as your base. Regardless the excellent drainage capacity of your Pet Turf, if you don’t build your sub base correctly, you will never achieve the ultimate results. There is a saying in the turf industry: your grass is as good as its base gets”. We need to look at artificial grass and it’s installations as “system”, not the grass product alone. With a good system done properly, your artificial grass will perform at its best, same theory applies to Pet Turf and its drainage capacity. You can find a lot of installation tips on our website along with primary guidelines. Also, a lot of interesting shot video clips about artificial grass installations can be found on this YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfhiMWU7Avyvd594wAqCt_g

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.

It will depend on how big of the piece you would like to fit into a plastic tote and how big is your tote. I don't think it is a good idea of doing so regardless: having the artificial grass in tote.
