For landscaping contractors, the success of a commercial project hinges on specifying materials that perform as promised. This guide outlines a systematic approach to specifying the right artificial grass for commercial projects like corporate campuses, hotel resorts, and municipal parks.
First, assess the traffic level. For high-traffic entrances and public pathways, prioritize a turf with a high face weight (e.g., 80 oz/sy+) and a shorter pile height (25-32mm) for maximum durability. For aesthetic areas where softness is key, such as hotel pool decks, a longer pile (35-40mm) can be used, but ensure it still has a robust density.
Second, consider the primary usage. Is it purely decorative, or will it be used for casual recreation? For areas with furniture, ensure the turf has a strong, multi-layer backing to resist indentations. Finally, factor in the local climate. In high-sun regions, demand turf with superior UV resistance testing data. In heavy rainfall areas, verify the drainage rate of the system.
