Pet Premium Infill
Our exclusive Pet Premium Infill consists of naturally occurring minerals known as zeolites, designed to absorb animal urine.
This absorption prevents the release of ammonia gas and significantly reduces foul odours. When laid, Pet Premium Infill falls safely and inconspicuously to the base of the surface and is completely safe for pets and people. It also has the added benefit of reducing the temperature of artificial grass.
Installation Guide
Regular Artificial Grass Installation
Following these steps to install your SLC artificial grass, will give you a beautiful, green and worry-free lawn for years to come.
Prepare the base
Excavate the area to a depth of 120mm. Lay 60mm of crushed rock/road base and compact it with a vibrating plate. Lay 60mm of fine blue dust and compact it with a vibrating plate. Level the surface with screed and check for any gaps and address them.The level of crushed rock/road base whencompacted should be 15-20mm below “finished height” of surrounding edging/paving.
Trim to size
Lay your artificial grass, making sure you start from one edge and roll out. Cut the over-hanging quantities with a sharp knife. Remove the “salvage” or black strip from both sides of the grass. This cannot be used to join the grass.
Glue together seams
When joining rolls of grass together, be sure to use adhesive tape along the seams. Lay the silver backing of tape down on the crushed rock/ base with the white side facing up. Place the two pieces of grass onto the tape, with each edge placed evenly in the centre of the tape. Remember to put pressure onto the seams once the grass has been joined to promote good adhesion.
Secure in place
Once you have covered the complete area, nail all of the perimeters down at 500mm intervals using flat head nails or landscape pegs.
Power Broom your grass
Using a Power Broom, top dress the grass with an even distribution of dried silica sand fill to a depth of 15-20mm. A yard broom can be used at this stage to sweep in the sand evenly and to also brush the grass blades straight.
Installing Artificial Grass on Concrete
Artificial grass can very easily be applied to concrete surfaces. All it takes is some special artificial grass glue to firmly secure your grass to concrete. Artificial grass is a great option for businesses looking to change up their boring concrete floors or entryways. Installation is easy and you don’t have to worry about regular maintenance and upkeep like normal grass.
