Do you have a brick-and-mortar business? If the answer is yes, then you’ve probably got a lot on your plate. That said, you also have to think about your business from many angles; one of the things you have to think about is the appearance of your business and the safety of your customers while they are on your property. On that note, everyone knows that clean, well-manicured grounds are a bonus for business, but what about maintenance? Sports fields, including golf courses, are very expensive to maintain as it is. When they have regular grass, the maintenance costs really sky rocket. By far the best solution for businesses that need the benefits of grass or attractive turf, is an artificial version of what same material.
But why should you settle for an artificial turf? Are you, in fact, settling?
In reality, artificial turf is easier to maintain and safer for everyone who is using it. Why is this? One of the ways to understand the benefits of artificial turf is to look a t the composition of artificial turf.
The following list shows the level composition of every synthetic grass group installed in the ground:
(a) Grass fiber: this is the top most layer, the actual synthetic green grass
(b) Granulated Rubber: this layer allows the light penetrate in the set up while giving the entire grass ground a soft feel that makes it easier to walk around in.
(c) Rounded Silica Sand: the silica sand stands as the synthetic soil which is again rounded to contribute to the soft feel of the entire setup making it homier for kids to play in.
(d) Duraflo ™ Backing System: the backing system stands as a mid-ground connection between the substances contained in the upper and lower ground.
(e) Levelling layer: the levelling layer allows the water to penetrate through the drainage zone and allow a lengthened stay in the set up to reduce the constant need for water.
(f) Drainage Zone: the drainage zone releases the water after it is used for the most time needed for the set up to be fed the water it needs to stay robust.
(g) Geotextile: the textile makes it easier for the nutrients from the compost ground to penetrate the upper level of the set up and provide the entire grass with the mineral nutrients it needs from the actual ground to be able to remain its rich green color.
(h) Natural Subgrade (Compost): This is the soil-like ground level of the entire set-up; from here comes the natural nutrients needed to make the synthetic grass appear as natural as it should be.
With these layers present in the set up, it could be seen how much safer it is for people to use the artificial turf, whether it’s simply a turf they’re walking on or they happen to be playing sports of some kind. The rubber base of the upper synthetic green grass layer makes it a safer surface for all variety of activities.
Besides that, it could also be noted how important it is to manage the entire setup with minimal time. With real grass, maintaining it would take time and lot of water, whereas with the synthetic setup, the maintenance needed is minimal giving you more time to give attention to more important issues of your business.
