Comparison between landscape grass and natural turf

Publish Time: 2023-01-02     Origin: Site

Landscape grass was first introduced in China in the late 1980s and was not widely promoted until the mid to late 1990s. Together with plastic running tracks, it became the standard mode of school sports field construction, replacing a large number of sports fields originally planted with natural turf. Although the application of landscape grass has been limited to a certain extent due to sports safety, site characteristics, and public awareness, the production and production technology of landscape grass has been innovated and improved with the development of technology.

Sports Performance

Compared with natural turf, landscape grass is usually much harder and the coefficient of friction of chemical fibers is often smaller than the blades of turf grass, which in soccer leads to excessive ball speed and high bounce rate, thus increasing the difficulty of ball control for players.

The advantage of landscape grass over natural turf in terms of sports characteristics is the excellent uniformity of the field and the much better levelness, which can fully avoid the poor condition of the field caused by climate and maintenance factors, thus affecting the game.


Impact on the environment

Natural turf has an impact on the environment and air conditions. Natural turf consists of green plants that can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through the physiological metabolic process of photosynthesis and can absorb toxic gases such as sulfur dioxide, hydrogen fluoride, ammonia, and chlorine gas, which play a role in purifying the air. The natural lawn has a significant effect on dust deterrence, measurement data shows that in a three or four-grade wind, the concentration of dust in the air on bare ground is 13 times higher than that over the lawn. Studies have shown that a 25 square meter lawn can absorb all the carbon dioxide exhaled by a person and convert it into oxygen to meet the oxygen needed by the human body in the process of breathing. Landscape grass is a non-living material made of polyethylene, polypropylene, and other polymers, which cannot carry out the metabolic activities of green plants and does not have the role of regulating the carbon and oxygen balance in the atmosphere.


Impact on climate

Natural turf can have an impact on the climate. The bed of natural turf is a mixture of sand and mud, with sufficient pore space in the structure to accumulate water during irrigation and precipitation, which acts as a water carrier. When the climate is hot, turf grass uses its root system to absorb water from the depths and carry away a large amount of heat from the surrounding environment through transpiration, effectively reducing the ground temperature and regulating the microclimate within a certain range.


Nowadays, the sixth generation of landscape grass made of open mesh single fiber filament is closer to natural turf in terms of shock absorption ratio, ball bounce roll, steering value, and other field sports indicators, and even has more advantages in some characteristics. The choice of landscape grass and natural turf is based on the actual situation. Welcome to buy our landscape grass.
