Why Choose K9 Turf?

Dog using K9 Turf Pet Friendly Artificial Grass

K9 Turf has been designed specifically for dogs and pets; it is a 100% pet friendly grass. Using rapid flow technology, this artificial grass is specially made to allow pet waste to drain efficiently. This prevents the build up of harmful bacteria and nasty odours.

When dogs urinate on a natural lawn, yellow patches can appear due to the chemical makeup of the urine. There are a variety of nitrogen compounds in dog urine that come from the high levels of proteins that make up a dog’s diet. There are different factors that affect the size of grass burn spots, such as dog size, gender and how much water they have consumed.

When you have artificial grass the only problem you can encounter with dog urine will be the odour. However, unlike latex backed artificial grasses, the special polyurethane backing that K9 Turf has resolves this issue when paired with K9 Turf’s Enzyme cleaner. The strong yarn in K9 Turf and the advanced installation process also prevents dogs from digging the artificial grass up and ruining it, so you no longer have to worry about a patchy, muddy lawn.

Why not latex?

Latex grass holds moisture, creating a build-up of harmful bacteria. Upon 6 months of your latex artificial grass installation, if the lawn is used by pets it will have a strong smell of ammonia from the urine which is unavoidable. This smell will only be reduced by 30-40% when using cleaning products due to moisture becoming trapped in the latex and not flowing through. This build-up of ammonia and bacteria can be harmful to children who play on the lawn, as well as becoming a costly investment due to a shorter lifespan of the lawn.

Unlike latex products which hold moisture, K9 Turf is designed to withstand pet waste by using anti-porous materials; the grass repels excess liquids enhancing the drainage.

How is K9 Turf installed?

  1. Remove existing lawn or debris in order to spread a layer of crushed rock and grano across the surface. This will provide a solid foundation for the artificial turf to lay on.
  2. The grass is then installed above this rock and grano. This consists of four separate layers which are designed to enhance drainage and improve the lifespan of the grass.
  3. Zeolite Infill is then spread across the surface of the turf which acts as an added barrier against pet waste. The organic infill absorbs any excess liquid and prevents it from seeping into the turf, killing any harmful bacteria. It also helps to ensure the grass stays upright and stops it from flattening under heavy footfall.
  4. Once the grass and infill has been installed, the K9 Turf Enzyme Cleaner is then used to remove any organic waste. This specialist cleaner also helps to prevent the build-up of any bad ammonia smells and odours.

So in conclusion…

K9 Turf is the best pet-friendly artificial grass on the market today. This is due to its more advanced draining system, getting rid of those nasty odours and bacteria leaving you with a cleaner, drier lawn. The materials used in K9 Turf are extremely hard wearing meaning it can withstand heavy footfall, accommodating the whole family, including your pets. Not only is K9 Turf the safest choice for your family, but it’s also the best choice financially as you are guaranteed your money’s worth.
