Backyard and garden turf is usually used for family leisure, children’s play, pets, light exercise, and landscape decoration. The usage intensity is lower than a sports field, but comfort, natural appearance, drainage, and environmental safety become more important.
Core Requirements
A garden model should feel soft underfoot, look natural, drain efficiently, resist outdoor weathering, and remain easy to maintain. For many homeowners, the turf should also be safe for children and pets and should not have noticeable odor.
Recommended Technical Parameters
| Item | Recommended Range for Backyard and Garden Use |
|---|---|
| Pile height | 30–40 mm |
| Tuft density | 10,000–12,000 tufts/m² |
| Yarn type | Soft modified PE yarn |
| UV aging resistance | ≥5,000 hours |
| Backing | Breathable composite backing |
| Drainage rate | ≥80 mm/h |
| Surface feel | Soft, smooth, non-abrasive |
| Environmental performance | Low odor, low emission, heavy-metal controlled |
| Optional function | Antimicrobial or mildew-resistant additives |
This type of turf does not need the same high-impact sports performance as a football field. Instead, it should offer a good balance of comfort, appearance, drainage, and long-term outdoor durability.
