Tuff Turf synthetic grass is virtually maintenance free.
How much Tuff Turf will I need?
Tuff Turf synthetic grass rolls come in 3.75 metre widths and up to 20 metres in length (75sqm total). You should allow 300mm extra for each measurement to ensure movement at either end.
To estimate the amount of infill required – work on 1 bag of sand (25kg) or sand/rubber (20kg) being used every 2sqm. Therefore, 48sqm of synthetic turf = 24 bags of sand.
Tuff Turf synthetic grass joining tape is required wherever the synthetic turf joins up to another piece of synthetic turf. It comes in rolls of 10 metres long x 150mm wide. Simply add up the lineal metres of where your joins are.
- If you get to design your own area, it is most cost effective to keep the measurements as close to 3.75m as possible. Example: 3.75m, 7.5m, 11.25m. This means you will reduce the amount of wastage.
- Curves and unusual shapes will require more joins and more wastage which you will need to factor in when working out your measurements.
Is Tuff Turf pet friendly?
Yes. Tuff Turf is resistant to pet stains. Simply remove any ‘mess’ and flush the area with water.
What is Tuff Turf made from?
Tuff Turf artificial grass is made from extruded polypropylene, polyethylene, or nylon PVC (or plastic) fibre.
What is underneath Tuff Turf?
Before laying Tuff Turf, the area should be excavated to a depth of 80mm. A layer of 60mm of compacted crushed rock should be added for drainage. And a layer of washed silica sand should be distributed on the surface to hold the synthetic turf down.
Where is Tuff Turf made?
Tuff Turf is certified to world’s best quality management standards in production and environmental management. Different Tuff Turf varieties are manufactured in Australia and China by companies holding ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
