Artificial grass can be made from materials such as polyethylene, which behaves the most like real grass but needs stabilizers to prevent UV degradation. When choosing a type of artificial grass, it's important to consider its intended use. Options include turf, commercial turf, sports turf, and pet-friendly turf, each designed with specific characteristics in mind. Pile height and density can vary greatly. It's good to get a quote and samples from a to examine the variety of options before making a purchase. Factors to consider should include the overall look (color), the durability/intended use, and whether it's being used for pets or other activities.
