To expedite your journey into the exploration of artificial grass for your project, we offer the following list of available reports and studies that show, with no degree of uncertainty, that artificial grass solutions are a fantastic alternative to many other landscape options; including natural grass, in many cases, especially when maintained under generally-approved standards of pesticide and weed control.
The reports include studies based upon real-world project sites to standard tests conducted in staged settings. Universities across the world, along with environmental departments of US, Canadian and European countries have participated in health and impact studies, diligently reviewing the most commonly asked "questions of possible health or environmental impact with the use of artificial grass" from many points of view. When reviewed objectively, the reports and studies conclude, unanimously, "no trouble found".
Recent reports echo studies completed, years before, stating that when properly installed, using quality products and standard industry installation guidelines, artificial grass solutions are durable, safe and sound investments as sports fields, landscape and leisure sports amenities; in both commercial and residential markets. Branded system solutions are tried and tested and with the growing adoption of industry installation standards and guidelines, across the global market, customers can be assured of a consistent product offering, where-ever they are located.
A steady global growth of 20% for the past 5 years, attests to the market’s strength and the industry’s ability to perform to the call to action by a buying public.

After an explosion in the sports field market 5-6 years ago, nearly doubling sales figures overnight, industry wide numbers are climbing at a healthy pace of 15-20% annually.
I’m too lazy to actually follow through with "creative projects" outside of photography.
One of the main reasons for installing artificial grass is reduction of water consumption, cost savings and environmental benefits. Lot of water is consumed in golf courses, sports field, commercial and residential areas, street medians, public spaces, parks, play grounds, and apartment buildings when natural grass is installed. A golf course may require a million gallons of water a day during summer. Much of the water may be soaked by pesticides, and fertilizers. Artificial grass does not require fertilizer, pesticides, mowing. According to a survey by U.S. Bureau of reclamation and Irvine Ranch water District, a residence area of about 750 square feet can save approximately 22,000 gallons of water per year if synthetic turf is installed. In many rural areas of southern California, well water is being used by many residents. In areas like Santa Clarita water had to be imported from reservoirs to keep up with demand. Because ofwater shortage and increase in water costs have lead people to move to synthetic grass instead of natural grass. Many areas like Georgia are facing water shortages, and areas like southwest and west coast regions are facing drought situation for several areas and Colorado River have drained of its vital water resource. Artificial grass has a tremendous lifespan, which can be recycled after its service has diminished. Since artificial grass has polyethylene fibers, it can be recycled very easily.
