Long-pile artificial grass is a type of synthetic turf characterized by its longer blade height, designed to more closely mimic the look and feel of natural grass. Here are the key characteristics, benefits, and considerations for long-pile artificial grass:
Characteristics of Long-Pile Artificial Grass
- Blade Height:
- Longer Blades: Typically, long-pile artificial grass has blade heights ranging from 30mm to 70mm or more. This length provides a lush, natural appearance.
- Varied Textures: The blades can have different textures to simulate various types of natural grass, including fine, medium, or coarse textures.
- Materials:
- Synthetic Fibers: Made from durable synthetic materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or nylon. Each material offers different benefits in terms of softness, durability, and resistance to wear.
- Infill Materials: Often used with infill materials such as silica sand or rubber granules to add weight, support the blades, and improve drainage.
- Construction:
- Tufted or Knitted: The blades are either tufted or knitted into a backing material, usually made of polypropylene or polyurethane, which provides stability and durability.
