THE PERFECT FINISHED PRODUCT
When we claim we are the best in the business, we mean it. We don’t believe in run-of-the-mill putting green installations. Southwest Greens of Connecticut has mastered the art and science of artificial grass installation. We have crafted and installed more than 6,000 golf greens globally as backyard putting greens, magnificent golf courses, and more.
Here’s a quick glance at how our artificial grass and putting green installation process works:
A base of crushed aggregate, which, unlike concrete, can be wetted and molded to form protection against breaks and waves.
Next, we install at least a 1/4 inch cushion pad that helps ball roll and shot absorption, then we install our 1 1/8 inch state-of-the-art polypropylene turf material that is used to synthesize the playability, softness, and the rich green color of real grass.
The artificial grass is then infilled with a formulation of fine-coated silica sand to give it the feeling of natural grass.
Finally, the tops are rolled to recreate the effect of a true bent grass green. Options include the installation of the first and second cuts fringe, sand traps, bunkers, fairways, and roughs.
