Artificial grass is an increasingly popular solution for creating vibrant, low-maintenance green spaces in residential and commercial areas. One key decision when selecting artificial grass is the thickness of the fibers. Below, you will discover the key factors to determine the most suitable height.

1. Intended use

Consider the planned use of the space. Will it be used for recreational activities such as children's games or pets, or is it more decorative, for relaxation purposes?

For high-traffic or intensive use areas like playgrounds or play areas, it is recommended to choose grass with thicker and more durable fibers that can withstand constant wear. In such cases, the grass should have a higher DTEX.

2. Appareance

The thickness of artificial grass directly affects its visual appearance and tactile feel. Consider whether you prefer a lush and deep look, or a compact and neat appearance.

Thicker fibers, with higher DTEX, tend to create a more lush and luxurious appearance, while thinner fibers may provide a more natural and less structured look.

3. Durability and Maintenance

Fibers with higher DTEX tend to be more durable and resistant to long-term wear. If you are looking for an artificial grass solution that requires minimal maintenance and retains its appearance for many years, consider opting for thicker fibers. On the other hand, lower thickness turfs require even less maintenance and offer excellent performance for a great range of applications.

4. Comfort and Desired Feel

The thickness of artificial grass can also influence its comfort level when walking or sitting on it. Thicker fibers can offer a more cushioned and soft feel underfoot, making them ideal for outdoor relaxation or resting areas. If you plan to spend a lot of time on the grass, especially barefoot, you may prefer a thicker option for added comfort.

Shorter fibers typically provide a more non-slip surface with less risk of fiber compression or matting in one direction. This translates to artificial grass with shorter fibers being easier to maintain its appearance over time.

5. Budget

Finally, budget may also influence your choice of artificial grass. Generally, grass with thicker fibers tends to be more expensive due to the greater amount of material used in its manufacture. However, in our catalog you will find options of exceptional quality at a super economical and competitive price.
