ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
WATER CONSERVATION
Conserving freshwater resources is more critical now than ever. Updating your landscaping with more eco-friendly materials is one of the best ways to reduce water usage and improve your environmental impact.
Artificial turf lawns help homeowners conserve water. By replacing your natural grass lawn with synthetic turf, you can drastically improve your carbon footprint and turn your home into one of the greenest on the block.
SUSTAINABILITY
Natural grass doesn’t stay lush and green all on its own; home and business owners spend countless dollars on lawn maintenance every year. Not only does natural grass require thousands of gallons of water, but the pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers are all significant pollutants.
Especially in drought-impacted areas, natural grass is one of the most unsustainable ways to landscape a home or business.
OTHER BENEFITS
It’s no secret that artificial grass is the best way to maintain a lush, evergreen landscape all year long. However, did you know that by switching to synthetic grass, you’re also doing your part to help the environment?
Synthetic turf is the most sustainable form of landscaping you can use on your property; because of its inorganic nature, property owners can cut back on costly, labor-intensive maintenance work. This results in not only a significant reduction in your monthly utility bills but an even greater reduction in your carbon footprint!
FIBER TECHNOLOGY
At AlwaysGreen, we specialize in providing the best artificial turf products and installation services for all applications. Whether you want a sprawling green landscape for your residential property, or a high-quality sports turf field that meets the toughest physical demands, we got you covered. We ensure this commitment by offering our customers turf products manufactured with the latest technology in synthetic grass fibers.
During the manufacturing process of our turf, different fiber shapes were created to meet the specific demands of each application. It’s important for us to know you have everything you need to make an informed decision on which artificial grass installer you hire to install your new lawn, so we’re breaking down the different fiber shapes we offer and what makes them all so essential to your synthetic grass needs.
TIGERCOOL TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
AlwaysGreen is committed to offering our customers the most advanced artificial turf products available today. One innovation that in some of our best-selling turf products is the TigerCool technology feature. This breakthrough innovation can significantly improve the look, comfort and useful life of your artificial turf. Learn more about our UV-resistant turf products below.
What is TigerCool?
TigerCool is a heat-reflective technology created by Tencate. TigerCool yarns use UV-resistant technology to keep the surface temperatures up to 15 percent and 10 degrees cooler. The result is outdoor areas that stay comfortable and enjoyable – even as summer temperatures begin to climb.
How UV-Reflective Technology Works
Artificial turf landscaping is constantly exposed to the sun’s rays. Depending on the composition of the synthetic grass used, it will either absorb the heat or reflect it into the atmosphere. TigerCool products use heat-reflective pigments to reflect UV rays, effectively lowering the surface temperature of the landscape.
TigerCool Heat Reflective (HR) Test Lab Results
The results in the lab found that UV-resistant artificial turf or TigerCool yarns successfully reduced surface temperatures more than synthetic turf without TigerCool technology. With an average improvement of 10.5 degrees Fahrenheit and a maximum improvement of 14 degrees Fahrenheit, lab studies clearly indicate the difference TigerCool can make in your lawn.
15-YEAR WARRANTY
Our artificial turf products that we install are covered under a 15-year warranty, and our synthetic grass putting greens are under an 8-year warranty. Both turf warranties cover our turf product from defects, significant fading, breakdown or degradation due to UV exposure. These warranties should bring you peace of mind, ensuring you enjoy your turf investment for years to come.
PROUDLY MADE IN THE USA
Our turf products don’t just look real, soft to the touch, they feel real. Each blade is perfectly formed, continually rolled and stretched to strengthen each synthetic blade, until each fiber is as thin and elegant as natural grass. Blades are treated with advanced UV resistant technology, through a rigorous tuft binding process that injects each blade into an environmentally friendly backing, this all takes place right here in the USA.
TERMINOLOGY & FAQS
Is artificial grass chemically safe?
AlwaysGreen offers only artificial grass that is made with the highest safety standards for chemical makeup. Out of an abundance of caution and in recognition of public concerns, all TigerTurf products are created without PFAS chemicals in any part of the manufacturing process, including raw ingredients and materials.
How long does turf last?
High-quality artificial grass can last up to 20+ years with average use and regular cleaning maintenance. To back this up, AlwaysGreen offers a limited 15-year warranty on all landscape turf we install.
Is artificial grass safe for children and pets?
All AllwaysGreen turf installed is lead-free, great for both kids and pets.
We also offer a selection of artificial grass products specially engineered for use in pet-friendly areas and kids’ playgrounds. Our IPEMA-certified PlayScapes system includes an eco-friendly foam underlayer that protects kids from impact falls, and our pet turf is ultra-durable for all-day running and roughhousing.
Does artificial grass fade or discolor?
Each blade of our synthetic grass products are created with a UV inhibitor during the manufacturing process. This ensures the vibrant green color of your turf will never fade, regardless of sun exposure.
How is artificial grass eco-friendly?
In addition to being aesthetically appealing and low maintenance, synthetic grass also aids in multiple aspects of environmental conservation.
Water Conservation: In most parts of the country, natural grass needs to be watered several times per week to stay green and healthy. AlwaysGreen artificial grass, by contrast, never needs to be watered to remain green, aiding in water conservation efforts.
Less Chemical Use: Say goodbye to fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and other harmful chemicals when you switch to artificial turf. Harmful chemicals from natural grass maintenance products often seep into the soil and nearby water sources, potentially damaging the local environment. With AlwaysGreen turf, you can have a safer, family-friendly lawn.
Reduced Air Pollution: Lawnmowers, leaf blowers, edgers and other gas-powered maintenance tools required for natural grass lawns all create air pollution. When you switch to AlwaysGreen artificial turf, you can get rid of those mowers and edgers, reducing carbon emissions and improving local air quality.
Does artificial grass drain?
We offer some of the most impressive drainage rates in the turf industry. All of our turf products drain at a rate of more than 30 inches per hour per square yard — significantly better than a natural lawn. Whether you have frequent rainstorms or pet urine to worry about, our industry-leading drainage capacity ensures that your artificial turf will continue to look great (and remain dry) long after installation.
Does artificial grass melt?
Yes. Synthetic turf melts at 175ºF or greater. Avoid using BBQs directly over your turf, and never pour boiling water onto the surface of your turf landscaping. If your house or business has double-paned windows installed, we recommend getting a UV filter applied to your windows before installing artificial turf as the glare from double-paned windows has a history of reaching high temperatures.
Can you use artificial grass around swimming pools?
Yes, artificial grass is great for pool areas. Synthetic grass will drain any excess water rapidly, remaining dry and slip-resistant. Artificial turf’s durable, tear-resistant blades also mean that you don’t need to worry about wet grass blades being tracked into the pool.
Can turf grass get hot?
We offer the latest in artificial grass cooling technology with TigerCool. TigerCool synthetic grass is created with heat-reflective pigments and UV inhibitors to reduce surface temperatures by up to 15 percent.
Natural grass (and other variations of artificial grass) absorb infrared light from the sun and turn it into heat. Dark colors, like the greens and browns found in grass, absorb the most light and create the most heat buildup, causing those surface temperatures to increase the most. TigerCool, however, uses heat-reflective dark color pigments in the production process to prevent this heat buildup. With these pigments, infrared light is reflected rather than absorbed, which reduces surface temperatures significantly.
In a series of tests conducted by TigerTurf, it was indicated that TigerCool technology was able to successfully reduce artificial grass temperatures by 15 percent, or up to 10 degrees. This makes it safer and more comfortable for your family to enjoy their synthetic grass lawn.
Why should you switch to artificial turf?
- Evergreen Appearance: Artificial grass always appears perfectly groomed and remains lush and green year-round.
- Low Maintenance: Once installed, artificial turf never requires mowing or edging, and it requires very little watering — only a quick rinse to remove dust and debris.
- Eco-Friendly: Since synthetic turf doesn’t require routine maintenance like natural grass, it eliminates the need for gas-powered lawn equipment and harsh chemicals from fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides. It also allows you to save thousands of gallons of water each year.
- Durable: Artificial turf stands up against heavy foot traffic and extreme weather thanks to our innovative tuft-bind technology.
