How to choose artificial turf
When buying artificial turf, there are three key aspects to take into account. It is important to be clear that not all artificial grasses are the same. There are different types and qualities.
The three key elements to buy artificial turf
In Albergrass, as manufacturers of quality artificial grass, we recommend when buying synthetic grass to take into account three key elements. These are: know how to compare, treat it as an investment and take into account the Decitex.
Know how to compare different types of artificial turf.
Synthetic grass is a product that must be created with precision and technique. Its quality is influenced by the type of fibers used for its manufacture, the development of the product, the technical processes applied during the manufacturing process and the final finish.
Depending on the raw material and technical processes, the artificial turf will have different performance, quality and durability.
Therefore, from Albergrass we recommend that when buying artificial turf not only compare the models of synthetic grass based on price. It is also important to compare the performance of each of the models and the technologies and fibers included.
Cheap artificial turf may be attractive for the price, but it may not meet your needs or offer you durability. So, in many cases, cheap is expensive.
2. Buying quality artificial turf is an investment for the future.
When you are going to buy artificial grass for your garden, terrace, balcony, attic, swimming pool… or for any indoor or outdoor area, it is important that you understand this expense as an investment for the future.
Investing in a quality artificial turf is a profitable investment. Because the result is aesthetically unbeatable, durability is guaranteed and its low maintenance allows you to enjoy your free time without having to waste it on lawn care. All this, for many years as the first day.
3. Take Decitex into account
Decitex (Dtex) is a unit of yarn measurement that indicates the decigrams in 10,000 meters of yarn. The lower the decitex, the higher the yarn fineness.
Decitex information is included for synthetic turf. It is usually indicated the number of decitex followed by a slash and another number. Thus, if for example, it is indicated that it has 8,800/8, it means that the synthetic fiber is of 8,800 Dtex distributed in 8 ply. Thus, each strand has 1,100 Dtex.
Depending on the intended use of the artificial turf, aDecitex number is appropriate. For example, for a garden, the Decitex should ideally be between 850 and 1,100.
