Replacing your natural lawn with synthetic turf has countless benefits: low maintenance, no watering or mowing, reduced pollen allergies, and a beautiful artificial grass lawn that stays green and lush all year long. However, choosing which synthetic turf product is right for you is a crucial decision. You want to make sure you’re providing your home with the best on the market. You want synthetic grass that looks natural, is safe for your family, and can withstand the right amount of foot traffic without wear. In other words, you want a TigerTurf product.

TigerTurf is a leader in innovation, with more than 36 years in business that has culminated in a global supply chain serving customers in over 85 countries. With production facilities in New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the USA, TigerTurf offers a comprehensive range of artificial turf options that are all safe for kids, pet-friendly, anti-microbial, and IPEMA certified. Thanks to vertical integration with TenCate, the market leader in yarn manufacturing whose clients include NASA and Boeing, TigerTurf is able to develop state-of-the-art products and has become a leader in the synthetic grass industry.

All of TigerTurf’s synthetic grass is made of the highest quality polyethylene yarn. Products feature multiple blade colors, varying blade lengths, and improved durability to give your artificial grass lawn the most natural look possible while still maintaining a flawless appearance. To ensure that the products are of the highest quality possible, TigerTurf tests their turf’s reaction to environmental factors such as UV radiation, extreme temperatures, and moisture effects. They also utilize advanced equipment to replicate potential usage, such as foot traffic, and evaluate the turf’s response to create the most durable synthetic turf on the market.

Their ability to innovate has resulted in unique product lines such as TigerCool, a new cooling technology incorporated into TigerTurf’s most popular grass styles. TigerCool styles feature heat reflective color pigments and advanced UV inhibitors that absorb heat and keep turf cool even in the height of summer. TigerCool has been proven to reduce turf temperatures by 15% and up to 10 degrees – a difference you can feel and appreciate come summer.

TigerTurf’s ultra-efficient DrainCore drainage system also allows over 30 inches of rain to drain per square yard per hour. That’s significantly more than a natural lawn. With DrainCore, there’s no need to worry about mud patches or flooding during the rainy months. This is part of what makes TigerTurf an obvious choice for play areas and sports fields. TigerTurf is a FIFA licensed supplier and an affiliate of World Rugby, the International Tennis Federation (ITF), International Hockey Federation (FIH), and World Bowls – a testament to TigerTurf’s superior quality.

This St. Patrick’s Season, not only can you get green and save green, but you can also GO GREEN with artificial grass! Synthetic turf will save you time and money and will help you be eco-friendly, all while your lawn looks perfectly green and luscious.

Water Conservation and Rebates

Despite the recent rainy-season in Southern California, Orange County is typically dry and prone to drought. That’s why many SoCal residents do their best to conserve water as much as possible. Also, many water districts offer rebates for artificial grass installations, which gives even more reason to get your installation done now!

Eco-Friendly and No More Lawn Maintenance

You can also save time and money on lawn maintenance! No more mowing the lawn and no more fertilizing and weeding the yard. By not having to do maintenance on your lawn, or paying someone else to take care of it, you can save money and time! Additionally, fertilizers and other similar lawn chemicals are wasted and become runoff. This runoff can contaminate water and is dangerous to animals and humans. Since you don’t have to use fertilizers or other chemicals anymore with your artificial turf lawn, you’re doing your part in saving the environment and being eco-friendly.

Forever Green Oasis

With artificial grass, there will be no mud, puddles, or brown spots! It’s guaranteed to always be green. So during those rainy days in SoCal, your synthetic lawn will drain all of the water, leaving behind no puddles or mud so your synthetic grass oasis will look perfect year round. Artificial grass is made to never fade and is even inhibited with UV protection, meaning your green grass will last you for YEARS to come.

An artificial grass lawn saves you time, money, water, and helps the environment, so it only makes sense to get green! On top of the many benefits that artificial grass has, all of our products here at OC Turf & Putting Greens are non-toxic and lead-free, making it a perfect and safe landscape alternative for kids and pets.

It’s that time of year again when it’s all about that big four letter word – love. Whether you love your friends and family or a significant other this Valentine’s season, we hope you get lots of chocolate. That being said, you can show love to pretty much anything including your amazing artificial grass installation. We all know that your natural lawn upgrade already loves you, but this month we wanted to talk about potential ways you can show your turf lawn some love back!

Pet Turf Owners

When you have pets, you have to admit; your turf is doing a lot for them. From draining all the liquid to surviving paw traffic from their fetch games, your artificial turf has done it all. While you might do your typical weekly rinse down, you can show your artificial lawn a little more love with Turf Fresh. Turf Fresh is an organic pet product that helps to eliminate urine smells and dog odors further. The active-bacteria present in the formula works to create a sanitary and fresh-scented environment in your yard. Each bottle is highly concentrated, biodegradable, and non-toxic for your pets absolute safety. Show the love and switch up your normal routine for something a little stronger.

Tree Lovers

If you have seasonal trees in or next to your yard, you might find that leaves, flowers, and other debris fall onto the turf. While it’s not damaging to leave it, it might look just that much prettier if you got rid of it. With a simple rake or a leaf blower, you can blow away all the unnecessary pieces and maintain the clean and groomed look you had when it was installed. Your turf will appreciate the extra mile.

Typical Homeowners

Maybe you give your turf a quick rinse on occasion, but you’ve been putting it off recently. Don’t forget that spraying down your artificial grass with a hose semi-regularly helps to remove any dust and dirt that the elements send your way. Surprisingly, it also can help redistribute your infill. It’s not an over-the-top turf Valentine’s Day gift, but it’s a little more effort than usual, so it counts.

High Traffic Property Owners

If you’re seeing that your turf installation is getting a lot of use and looking not as fluffy as it used to, there’s no need to worry. Many of our turf products use a signature blade shape to ensure that it will bounce back under typical foot traffic. However, because it’s a special occasion, you might want the grass to stand a little taller than usual. With a brush or a rake, you can make those fibers stand extremely tall again to impress your patrons with how lush and real it looks. If you’re not sure which tool to use, you can even use a broom and have the same effect. Your turf will love being properly groomed!

Now that you’ve given your artificial grass some love this season, your relationship is reinvigorated, and you’ll be going strong together for years to come. If you love your turf, make sure to let us know on social media and tag us in your photos!

Artificial grass has come a long way since it first hit the market. From advanced yarn designs to new and improved color tones, synthetic grass has taken over most Orange County neighborhood lawns. Artificial turf allows for a picturesque landscape that not only stays green all year long but takes minimal maintenance efforts to remain beautiful. 

One of the main advantages of artificial grass is its incomparable lifespan to natural grass. Follow these tips, and we guarantee your artificial lawn will last you 15+ years!

Proper Installation

First and foremost, you need a proper artificial turf installation. Without a seamless execution and solid foundation, problems will appear within the first couple of years of your installation. From start to finish, your artificial turf installation needs to be done with a qualified and knowledgeable crew. If you’re a DIY kind of person, make sure to take the right steps and precautions before taking on such a demanding project.

Choosing the Right Turf

Choosing the perfect artificial turf option is a crucial step in maintaining your lawn’s lifespan. Whether you enjoy an active lifestyle or prefer leisure time, making sure that you pick the best turf option for your home will increase its longevity. 

For homeowners who have kids and pets running around, going for a higher face weight is perfect for moderate to high traffic levels. Higher face weight equals higher durability. We recommend choosing from our Diamond and Everglade lines. These product series feature strong blade shapes that can endure any amount of play! 

For pet owners, our Pet Turf is the ideal landscape solution. Our pet turf features a shorter pile height for easy maintenance and clean-up – not to mention a killer drainage system. Your pets will never notice the difference! All of our products are non-toxic and lead-free, ensuring the safety of your kids and furry friends.

Quick & Easy Maintenance

With artificial grass, all you need to do it rinse and brush up your lawn every once in a while to keep its pristine look. A simple brush up with a stiff broom will get the fibers back up into place if your turf is starting to bend and look flat. Your turf should also be rinsed periodically, especially if you have dogs or any other animals roaming the area. Pet owners will also benefit from using our pet system products which will keep the artificial grass lawn smelling fresh and clean, even after your pets have utilized the area. Our pet system products include Durafill, Zeolite Max, and Turf Fresh. These top of the line products will help prevent bacteria build-up while providing an environmentally friendly lawn.

At OC Turf & Putting Greens, we take pride in providing each and every client with the lawn of their dreams. All of our products are backed by a 15-year warranty, ensuring that your new artificial grass lawn will last for years to come!

It’s “rainy” season here in Orange County, and when the rainfall arrives, many homeowners wonder about the drainage capabilities of their artificial grass lawn. Good news is that synthetic grass has a built-in drainage system in the turf backing, and will drain faster than a natural grass lawn.

How is this possible? Natural grass lawns are on top of dirt which soaks in the water, causing puddles and mud. On the other hand, artificial grass’ drainage system allows for water and other liquids to flow straight through at a rate of 30+ inches of rain per square yard per hour and dries quickly.

Additionally, when it rains, natural lawns with fertilizer, pesticides, and other chemicals are slowly polluting the environment. As the grass drains, the runoff of water pulls the chemicals with it and puts it back into the water system. Because artificial turf doesn’t require any chemicals to be healthy or green, the rainwater isn’t pulling anything harmful back into the environment.

Here at OC Turf and Putting Greens, we pride ourselves in providing homeowners throughout Orange County with the safest, enviro-friendly, and most durable artificial grass products. Thinking about switching to artificial turf? Give us a call today at 888-526-2289.
