Artificial Turf Bundaberg

Artificial turf typically lasts between 10 to 20 years, depending on the quality of the materials and how well it's maintained. Higher-end products made with UV-stabilised polyethylene or polypropylene fibres can withstand years of sun exposure, foot traffic, and weather conditions without fading or breaking down. Areas with heavy use—like sports fields or backyard play zones—may show wear sooner, while residential lawns with moderate use often last longer. Regular brushing, occasional cleaning, and keeping it free from sharp debris will help preserve its appearance and performance over time.

Yes, artificial turf is generally safe for both pets and children. Most modern products are made from non-toxic materials and do not contain lead or harmful chemicals. The surface is soft underfoot, reducing the risk of scrapes or injuries during play. Pet waste can be easily cleaned up, and many turf systems include drainage layers that prevent odour buildup. Some types even feature antimicrobial infill to further reduce bacteria. It’s still important to check the safety standards of the specific product you choose, especially if it will be used frequently by kids or pets.

Artificial turf has several practical benefits. It requires no mowing, fertilising, or watering, which reduces maintenance time and ongoing costs. It provides a neat, green appearance year-round, even in shaded or drought-prone areas where natural grass struggles to grow. Turf is ideal for people with allergies, as it doesn't produce pollen. It’s also highly durable, making it suitable for play areas, pet zones, and high-use landscaping. In addition, modern turf products come in a variety of colours and textures that closely mimic the look and feel of natural grass.
