Artificial Grass

Artificial grass is material that is made of synthetic, man-made fibers that look like real grass. The synthetic grass blades are green and come in different pile heights. It is constructed in the same way that carpet is made; it has a solid backing and then the blades are machine stitched on.

If you need fake grass for a sports field, dog run, or other high-traffic area, look for a shorter pile height, between ⅜ and ⅝ inches. A luxurious, true-to-life look for a front yard is achieved by products with a longer pile height, between 1 ¼ and 2 ½ inches.

The higher the pile density the more lush the grass will look. The low-density artificial can look scarce and thin.
