A few key points to note before the construction of artificial turf


The artificial turf in the non-life plastic fiber products as raw material, the use of artificial methods produced intend lawn. It is the solution to the use of high intensity, extremely adverse growing conditions difficult to grow natural grass is not suitable planting lawn an important way. Compared to natural grass, artificial turf has a very distinct advantages and disadvantages. 

Such as weather, rain, snow, weather impact; maintenance simple, low maintenance costs; recyclable material environmental protection, surface layer, is irreplaceable natural turf, artificial grass is very applicable to the frequency of use than high primary and secondary school playground or training ground.

However, due to the artificial turf used in chemical fiber materials, asphalt or concrete as a grass-roots, surface hardness, buffer performance is poor, can easily lead to the athletes ankle and knee injuries; surface temperature variations, especially in the summer, the highest temperature up to 52 ° C, such a high temperature caused a great impact on the competitive state of the athletes and the environment will be.

In recent years, with the artificial turf construction technology constantly updated as well as the development of the fiber material and fill material, making many of the shortcomings of artificial turf, such as surface hardness, buffering and poor performance can be improved gradually, of course, these are the correct choice of lawn material and scientific and reasonable under the premise of construction technology and quality, can be achieved. 

Artificial turf before the construction should mainly consider the following factors: the type of artificial turf used in the artificial turf of the fiber material (PP or PE); types of fill material (silica sand, rubber granules or a mixture of both) and fill depth; drainage design.
