Silica sand is the most common synthetic landscape turf infill product. Silica sand allows the grass blades to stand upright as well as to provide UV protection to the backing material. It also gives the artificial grass a natural feel as it provides additional cushioning, similar to soil in natural grass. Silica can be used in every infill application involving synthetic grass including putting greens. Silica comes in tan or white.
While synthetic grass requires minimal maintenance, there are some things to consider to keep it looking its best. A weekly light spray with a garden hose will keep it free of dust and debris. An occasional touch-up with a flexible rake will help keep the blades standing up, or if you have large areas, power brooms can be rented at any of our locations.
