Understanding PFAS & Artificial Turf

 

Questions about artificial turf materials have become much more common over the last few years — especially for families with kids and pets. Many homeowners simply want to better understand what modern turf products are made of, how they are manufactured, and what separates different turf systems from one another.

​

Not all turf products, backing systems, or infill materials are the same. That is why we believe better information and thoughtful product selection matter when choosing artificial turf for a home.

PFAS & MATERIAL CHOICES

Many homeowners today are asking more questions about PFAS and the materials used in artificial turf. We intentionally selected turf products manufactured without intentionally added PFAS while also focusing on realistic appearance, durability, and residential comfort.

HEAT & SUMMER COMFORT

​Artificial turf can become warmer in direct sunlight, especially during Colorado summers. Turf color, blade structure, surrounding materials, irrigation, and overall yard design all influence long-term comfort and usability.

PETS, KIDS & DAILY USE

Many families choose turf to reduce mud, standing water, lawn chemicals, and everyday maintenance. Proper drainage, thoughtful installation, and quality materials all contribute to a cleaner and more usable outdoor space.

THOUGHTFUL PRODUCT SELECTION

Not all artificial turf systems are built the same way. Material quality, backing systems, drainage performance, infill choices, and installation methods can all impact how a turf system performs over time.

What’s Under the Surface Matters

Every homeowner weighs outdoor priorities a little differently. Some people care most about

reducing mud, maintenance, and water use. Others are more focused on lawn chemicals,

material selection, heat, durability, or long-term comfort for kids and pets.

​

Artificial turf is not a one-size-fits-all solution, and not all turf products are built the same way.

Our goal is simply to help homeowners better understand the options available so they can make

informed decisions that fit their family, lifestyle, and outdoor space.
