Using Artificial Grass to Reduce Playground Injuries

/in /by

Parents looking for ways to encourage more outdoor activity from their children can make their vision a reality with a backyard playground. A well-designed playground will deliver hours of entertainment for kids and increase their love for the outdoors. When installing a playground, parents must account for both fun and safety with their design choices, making artificial turf the ideal choice. Artificial grass is a fun surface to play on that also helps reduce these common playground hazards that can cause injury.

Slipping on Other Surfaces

A common cause of injury for children playing on a playground is slips and falls. Playgrounds often have surfaces that can become slippery when wet, like natural grass. This can lead to kids slipping and falling while attempting to run around the playground. With artificial grass as your playground surface, there will be fewer slips, falls and worry about injuries.

Playground turf from OC Turf & Putting Greens can help solve this issue with efficient drainage that prevents water buildup. Your playground surface will remain drier and puddle-free, even after a rainy day. 

Hard Falls

Children can be a bit reckless when they’re on a playground, leading to them falling and tumbling around on the ground.  

Falling onto most surfaces can cause serious injury, especially if your child hits the ground quickly and with enough force. 

Playground synthetic turf options feature padding to cushion and soften any tumble while playing. This will help prevent injuries and decrease the severity of those that occur.  

Rough Surfaces

Playgrounds often have a hard, unpleasant surface that can pose several issues for children. Any fall on this surface will lead to cuts and bruises. Running around on a hard surface can also be rough on your kids’ legs and feet, causing unnecessary strain. 

Synthetic grass has a softer surface that is more enjoyable and safer to play on. Any fall onto artificial turf is unlikely to cut or bruise a child’s skin. The softness and cushion of artificial grass will also be significantly better on children’s legs and feet.

Three Ways to Improve Your Home’s Curb Appeal with Artificial Turf

/in /by

Whether or not you’re attempting to sell your home, homeowners should always look to increase curb appeal. Doing so improves the value of your home, enhances its appearance and makes it look more inviting. The easiest and most effective way to increase your home’s curb appeal is with artificial turf, which can be used in various ways to improve your home’s look and curb appeal. 

A Stunning Green Artificial Grass Lawn 

Nothing ruins the aesthetic and curb appeal of a home more than a lawn with dead grass. No matter what the rest of your yard or house looks like, the sight of a brown and uneven lawn will always be the center of attention of those looking on. 

Synthetic turf can provide homeowners with a stunning green lawn that looks and feels like the real thing. With an artificial grass lawn, your home will never look better, which can only help its curb appeal. 

An artificial grass lawn won’t require much work from homeowners to preserve their beautiful appearance. Time-consuming maintenance activities like mowing, fertilizing, or weeding aren’t needed with a synthetic turf lawn. 

Complementing Greenery

Artificial turf doesn’t just go on your lawn; it can also go around your trees, flower beds, and other greenery. 

Synthetic grass serves as a great complement to the living elements you have set up in your yard and will enhance their aesthetic and your home’s overall look. 

One of the first things that those walking by your home will notice is how well your turf and greenery work with one another and how everything comes together perfectly.
