New Breakthrough in the Turf Industry

HACKENSACK, N.J. - Oct. 29, 2013 - PRLog -- Synthetic Turf in the Golf Industry

Long since synthetic turf have been available, synthetic turf in the golf industry have only been reserved to be used in golf ranges and also for putting greens. But with rising maintenance costs and water expenses, golf courses are now having to re-consider using synthetic turf on the actual course itself. There are a number of drawbacks to using 100% synthetic turf on a golf course but going synthetic also poses positives as well. This is where a new invention called the hybrid turf comes in. A hybrid turf will combine both natural grass and synthetic grass to create the perfect balance to be used on golf courses.

What is a hybrid turf?

A hybrid turf is the combination of natural grass and synthetic turf. Called Coverlawn, it helps to combine the positives of natural grass and artificial turf rather than having to compromise by using one or the other. Coverlawns revolutionary design allows for natural grass to grow right on up and blend in with the synthetic turf to create a natural look and feel. Coverlawn is a new concept in artificial turf. It is constructed on a honeycomb foundation to allow natural grass to grow and combine with Coverlawn. This system creates a hybrid turf that covers the weak points of both natural grass and artificial turf.

Benefits of using a hybrid turf

Installation

Coverlawn is a do it yourself project, all you need for proper installation are U-shaped staples, scissors, hammer, and a ruler to measure and mark the site. Removal of the Coverlawn is just as easy as the installation process, the process of installation needs to be reversed.

Eco - Friendly

Coverlawn does not block the natural water cycle like other synthetic turf does. The Net type backing allows for complete drainage to wash away and contaminants that may have been leftover. Also, the surface temperature is nowhere near like other synthetic turf companies where the temperature may reach up to 150 degrees F.

Aids in Grass Health

Coverlawn also works as an aesthetic cover for areas where natural grass does not grow. While the grass is in its early growing stage, the Coverlawn will shield the crown of the natural grass so that they may grow properly even with high traffic near the area.

Healthy for Children and Pets

Coverlawn does not use chemical materials therefore it is safe for animals to nibble on the grass and children can play on the hybrid turf without having to worry about hazards.

Coverlawn's Functions

1. Protects Crown of Grass

2. Retains Moisture

3. Keeps sod warm in cold weather

4. Erosion Barrier

5. Delays water evaporation
