Product Information

Full details

The Grass Warehouse 18mm Artificial Grass in black is designed for homeowners, educators, and event planners looking for a bold, durable, and low-maintenance surfacing solution. Its primary benefit is the ability to provide a clean, mud-free, and fade-resistant aesthetic that eliminates the need for mowing or constant upkeep. While it offers high-density durability suitable for heavy foot traffic, users should note that the non-traditional black color may absorb more heat than standard green varieties when exposed to direct, intense sunlight for extended periods.

FAQs

Can this grass be installed on top of decking?

Yes, it can be laid over decking, though it is recommended to use a thin shock-pad underlay to provide comfort and improve drainage.

Is the black turf safe for pets?

Yes, the materials are pet-friendly, non-toxic, and easy to clean, making it a great alternative to natural grass for dog runs.

How long does the UV protection last?

The black fibers are protected against UV degradation for 15 years, ensuring the color remains consistent even in high-sun areas.

Does it need sand infill?

While not strictly required, a light layer of silica sand can help stabilize the turf and protect the backing from excessive wear.

Can I install this indoors?

Absolutely. It is frequently used for exhibitions, sports zones, and creative interior displays.

What is the warranty coverage?

The product is supported by a 10-year manufacturer’s guarantee regarding the quality and integrity of the turf.

Troubleshooting

Turf edges curling up

Ensure the edges are properly secured using landscape pins or a dedicated adhesive applied to a perimeter frame.

Surface looks flat after heavy traffic

Use a stiff brush or power broom to lift the fibers and restore the vertical orientation of the tufts.

Water pooling on surface

Check the sub-base drainage and ensure the underlying ground is leveled correctly to allow for natural water runoff.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Bold and unique aesthetic for modern landscaping
  • Requires zero mowing or lawn treatments
  • Extremely durable with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee
  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications
  • Resists color fading due to advanced UV protection

Cons

  • Black color may become warmer than green turf in direct sun
  • Requires proper sub-base preparation for optimal drainage
  • Fixed 4m roll width may result in seams for larger areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best results, ensure the installation area is level and cleared of debris. A well-compacted sub-base consisting of sand or fine aggregate is recommended to facilitate proper drainage. When laying the 4m wide rolls, ensure that the pile direction is consistent across all sections to avoid visible seams. For care, keep the turf clean by periodically brushing away leaves or debris with a stiff-bristled broom. For pet owners, occasional hosing down with water will effectively remove waste and maintain hygiene. Avoid using harsh chemicals on the surface to ensure the longevity of the synthetic fibers.
