Artificial Grass Manufacturer Reveals Manufacturing Process
Announcement posted by Green Planet Grass 02 Apr 2015
Manufacturer and installer of artificial grass in Perth offers insight into the manufacturing process of Green Planet Grass.
Perth, WA, 02 April 2015 - Green Planet Grass is a manufacturer of “new generation” artificial grass in Perth. They are known for their professional service and high-quality products. Director Justin Everley has handled a lot of requests for information himself and noticed that the general public doesn’t really know what goes into making a high quality artificial grass.
Mr Everley was generous enough to provide information on how artificial grass is manufactured and how current artificial grass is different from previous generations of artificial grass. He provided this information in the form of a post on his company blog.
Materials in Modern Artificial Grass
Green Planet Grass uses 100% recyclable materials to make all of their varieties of artificial grass. They are committed to having a neutral “carbon footprint” as soon as possible and having minimal impact on the environment in the present.
Their backing is made of high-quality polyester: the same type used for tyre cords. To make the grass fibres or blades, Green Planet Grass uses a polypropylene or polyethylene to create a form of synthetic yarn. These materials help them make artificial grass that looks and feels like natural grass, but has the added benefit of being stain resistant.
Manufacturing Modern Artificial Grass
Green Planet Grass is made by using a tufting technique that is similar to carpet, but the end result is much different. First, the backing is assembled. Then, the ingredients to manufacture the fibres are mixed in a hopper with environmentally safe chemicals and dyes that provide colour and help break the ingredients down into a paste.
It is then put in a mixer and mixed until it is similar to the consistency of taffy. It is fed into a machine called an extruder, which turns it into fine strands. Those strands are then woven into the grass fibres. The fibres are then attached to the backing by a machine called a carding machine. This is like a giant sewing machine with hundreds of needles.
Then, pads are attached to the backing, coated with latex and cured in heat. The grass is then put onto a machine that levels off the grass blades. The finished product is rolled up and ready for shipping.
According to Mr Everley: “A lot goes into the process, but it is worth it because we know we are manufacturing some of the best artificial grass in Perth.”
