The primary materials are synthetic fibers, typically made from polyethylene, polypropylene, or nylon. These fibers are chosen for their durability, UV resistance, and realistic appearance.
The raw material (usually in the form of pellets) is melted and extruded through a machine to form long fibers. These fibers are then cooled and cut to the desired length.
The fibers are texturized to give them a more natural look and feel. This can involve processes like crimping, curling, or twisting to simulate the irregularities of natural grass.
After tufting, a secondary backing layer is applied to secure the fibers in place. This layer is typically made from a latex or polyurethane material, which is spread over the back of the tufted fibers and allowed to cure.
The texturized fibers are then tufted into a backing material, which is usually a mesh or fabric. This backing provides the base structure for the artificial grass. Tufting is done using large machines that push the fibers through the backing material.
The finished artificial grass is inspected for quality, cut to size, and packaged for shipment.
