Frequently asked questions about artificial grass

✅ Is artificial grass safe for children?

Absolutely, our grass provides a clean, safe area for your kids to play on all year round and it’s 100% eco-friendly. For extra peace of mind you can install shock pad foam underlay underneath the artificial grass to provide additional shock absorbency and gives kids that extra little bit of protection. We highly recommend shock pads in areas where play equipment is installed.

✅ I have a pet, will this be a problem?

PST Lawns artificial grass is also perfect for pets – and with the added bonus of NO muddy paws! When cleaning up after your pet it’s just like any other grass area, large particles will have to be scooped up but any other particles will wash away in the rain.

✅ Should I lay shock pad underneath the artificial grass?

We would always recommend shock pad underlay for kids play areas as it provides additional cushioning underneath the grass surface. Shock pad can also be a great option when installing onto concrete or tarmac. If the grass is for aesthetic purposes, shock pad is generally not required.

✅ How is the grass secured?

In general we advise you to use dried silica sand to weigh the grass down and keep it in place. The sand infill also adds to the stability of the surface and helps the grass fibres to stand upright for longer and has the added benefit of extending the lifespan of your artificial grass lawn. When installing onto concrete or tarmac surfaces you can also glue the grass down.

Here are some tips for looking after your artificial grass lawn.

✅ Will the colour fade?

Our artificial grass products are UV tested meaning that the colour won’t fade over time.

✅ Will there be puddles after rain?

Absolutely not, our grass if fully permeable ensuring that any rain water drains away very quickly – in fact up to 10 times faster than excess water on your regular grass lawn.
