1. Is Artificial Turf Allergen-Free?
Hay fever and allergies can produce unpleasant symptoms such as itchy eyes, a runny nose, and rashes. Many common allergens such as grass and pollen can also cause asthma attacks and even anaphylaxis. Artificial turf is non-allergenic as well as non-toxic, so it can’t trigger allergies and contains no harmful chemicals. Even the infill installation materials are safe.
2. Is Artificial Turf Kid-Friendly Enough To Play On?
Over time, natural grass will wear, and inconsistencies and holes will form in the ground. These holes can be a tripping risk, especially for children who are constantly running around. The holes also fill with water when it rains which can then create a muddy and slippery surface. Artificial grass is durable; it can withstand high-traffic areas with minimal impact on its function and appearance. Another advantage of artificial grass is that it has an extremely high drainage rate, so water does not collect as it does with natural grass. This also means that any time is playtime, regardless of the weather! US Turf also provides different infills that help keep young children safe and create a soft surface for falls.
3. Is Artificial Grass Toxic?
Natural grass is only natural if it contains no chemicals or pesticides - which is rare. These toxic products can be harmful to children. At US Turf, we use artificial grass that is safe for toddlers and children because it consists of non-toxic materials that do not require dangerous chemicals for maintenance.
4. Are Artificial Lawns Clean?
With artificial turf, there are no grass stains or mud so your children can keep clean when playing outside- and it doesn’t hurt that this makes washing a lot easier for parents!
Artificial Turf can reduce bacteria growth. Artificial grass contains anti-microbial agents that can help to fight bacteria that would otherwise thrive. All environments contain bacteria, but artificial turf can help to make the space safer and cleaner.
5. Is Artifical Turf Fire Resistant?
If you’ve ever seen natural grass burn, you’ll know that it’s fast and relentless. At US Turf, we use fire safe materials to produce lawns that decrease the spread of flames.
These 5 myths are commonly asked, but we can say with confidence that they are debunked. Artificial turf is entirely safe for you kids and provides less chance of irritation and injury.
