How to Distinguish Between Artificial Turf and Artificial Grass

2/25/2019

An artificial turf is often confused to be artificial grass and vice versa. People are rarely able to differentiate between the two and some can't even tell the difference between them.
This is because they kind of look similar, but are really not.  What's common between them is the fact that both of them are synthetic grass.
An artificial turf is actually used to describe sports grass.  It is shorter in appearance unlike artificial grass.  
On the other hand, artificial grass appears longer and fluffier than an artificial turf as it is actually for beauty and landscaping.

How Else Are Both Different?

Artificial Turf


After coming halfway through the blog, you must already know that artificial turf is for sports, and hence it is very tough. It has to be hard enough to withstand the number of people running on it.  During a challenging and hectic game, an artificial turf won't move from its place and stay firm. It is durable and long-lasting. When we think about teams of players and expansive play fields, we think an artificial turf would be ideal to play on. To run smoothly on the field, one should wear cleats with turf soleplate. This is because such cleats have a lot of cushioning for rough surfaces. There is a lot of friction and abrasiveness on the field. These cleats are ideal for a shallow surface like the turf.

Artificial Grass


Artificial grass is for good looks, and it adds to the appeal of the place. These are softer, longer, but equally long-lasting and durable.  All kinds of artificial grass are manufactured differently. Furthermore, you must hire a reputable landscaping company to ensure that the grass is installed professionally. This is because professional installation ensures that the artificial grass will last long and keep looking great.  When walking on artificial grass, you must make sure that you are wearing cleats with specialized soleplates. They should have rounded rubber studs so that they don't seep into the ground, and stay on the surface.  Artificial grass is a bit abrasive so these soleplates also prevent injuries.

Conclusion


It is not really difficult to distinguish between artificial grass and artificial turf. They both serve different purposes, and appear different too. Hire a reputable landscaping company to install an artificial turf in Queen Creek, AZ on your field.

Summary


 It is not really difficult to distinguish between artificial grass and artificial turf. They both serve different purposes, and appear different too. Hire a reputable landscaping company to install an artificial turf in Queen Creek, AZ on your field
