The best tip for a low-maintenance garden? Artificial grass.
Do you want to enjoy lush green grass all year round without too much effort? Then artificial grass is a great alternative – and it’s good for the environment too, as it turns out!
The benefits of artificial grass
Always looks great
All year round, even during prolonged droughts or heavy downpours, your lawn will continue to look perfectly green. So the grass really is never greener on the other side :)
Low maintenance
No more mowing, trimming the edges, scarifying, reseeding, fertilising, weeding… This leaves you with more time to relax in your garden.
Comfort
Is there any better feeling than walking barefoot on grass? Eco-friendly artificial grass feels wonderfully soft and is ideal for children and pets. Also good to know: the colour doesn’t run, so trousers with green knees are a thing of the past.
Cheaper
Artificial grass works out cheaper than real grass in the long run. Just work out for yourself how much you spend on grass seed, a lawnmower, electricity, fertiliser, weedkiller, and so on. The purchase price of eco-friendly artificial grass is higher than a bag of grass seed, but it’s a one-off cost.
Less maintenance
Artificial grass requires a different approach to maintenance than natural grass. It does not need to be mown or fertilised, and does not need to be watered during dry spells to stay green.
This means fewer mowing sessions and no need to use fertilisers or weedkillers to keep the lawn green and well-maintained. There is also no grass clippings produced when maintaining the lawn.
Artificial grass can also reduce water consumption for lawn maintenance, as watering to keep the grass green is not necessary.
We are also looking for ways to minimise our environmental impact during production. For example, we are working on more efficient production processes and the use of alternative and recycled raw materials.
For certain products, we are also developing solutions with recycling in mind. For example, ONE-DNA™ is made from a single type of raw material: 100% PE. This single-material construction is designed to facilitate recycling via suitable recycling channels.
At Namgrass, we are also committed to implementing concrete measures within our business operations, such as going paperless and our collaboration with tree-planting partners.
Water-permeable artificial grass
Many people think that artificial grass isn’t water-permeable, but that’s not true. What’s more, artificial grass combined with a good sub-base actually allows more water to pass through than dry grass pitches. This is hugely important. Because climate change means that during the summer months we face long periods of drought, as well as torrential downpours: neither of which is good for your lawn! Thanks to our artificial grass, rainwater can seep into the ground, cooling the soil and relieving pressure on the drainage system.
