Southwest Greens has invested heavily in research and development, resulting in the best synthetic turf materials and installation techniques. We fill our synthetic turf with a washed, rounded silica sand which is resistant to compaction; it won’t harden over time. It’s washed to remove impurities and dust. For our lawn applications, we also use a crushed rubber in-fill to add cushion. We can also install an extra cushion under the turf for play areas.

The advantages of investing in synthetic lawn turf are many. Basically, the advantages fall into three categories—aesthetics, maintenance and cost. First, our lawn turf is engineered to project the lush green color and softness of natural grass year round. Second, maintenance is minimal. You no longer have to mow, fertilize or water your yard. Third, the cost factor is significant. With synthetic turf, you can eliminate the cost of irrigation and watering, mowing, trimming and fertilizing. There is no need for annual aeration and topdressing.

Very little. For golf greens, we recommend that you call us for routine maintenance every 12 to 18 months, which includes rolling the green to ensure a smooth putt, and inspecting the areas around the cups to make any necessary adjustments. In the meantime, all you need to do is use a leaf blower to remove debris and leaves. For other turf applications, just use your leaf blower and garden hose periodically to clear off debris and clean the surface.

Yes. Our greens are designed to react like a golf course green. Whether you’re chipping from 2 yards or 200 yards, our greens will hold a shot as well as a natural grass golf green. Because we use an in-filled polypropylene product, your ball will react with the same spin and true roll of a natural surface. It will not bounce or waver as it would on a nylon surface. Learn more about our backyard golf putting greens and how they can help you with your game.

The quality of the artificial grass material we use is extremely important in achieving a top flight golf green. Why not nylon? Simply stated, it doesn’t offer the natural rich green look, soft feel and true performance characteristics of our Pro System product. This means your ball will roll and react on this surface more naturally when you are putting and chipping. The turf actually changes like natural turf when the climate changes. When it is warm and dry, the Pro System speeds up. In cooler, wetter climates, the Pro System is slower. You don’t get this kind of “realistic performance” with nylon surfaces.
