Artificial turf is an increasingly popular choice for sports fields, recreational areas and private gardens. However, to ensure maximum efficiency, you need to take regular care of it.
In this article, Bellon Mit will show you the best ways and tips for keeping artificial lawns always clean, thus ensuring a surface that is always green and long-lasting.
Regular cleaning and stain removal
An artificial lawn requires regular cleaning to remove leaves, debris and dirt that can build up on the surface. Constant use of a BM10 triangular sweeper allows you to keep a soft and homogenous infill while strengthening the fibres of the turf by lifting them up and decompacting them.
Just as important is the quick removal of any stains, caused by organic debris or other substances, to prevent any permanent damage by using gentle detergents or water and soap solutions.
Preventive maintenance programme
For optimum maintenance, you need to plan cleaning operations so you can always keep the artificial lawn in perfect condition using special equipment. It’s also important for the surface to be well-drained to prevent any build-up of stagnant water, which may lead to the formation of algae and moss. Anti-mould products are also useful.
There’s an increasing tendency to use artificial lawns with drainage particularly in sports environments.
UV ray protection
Good quality artificial lawns are generally designed to better withstand damage caused by UV sun rays. As an extra guarantee, a UV coating can be applied to protect an artificial lawn from damage due to discoloration caused by exposure to the sun.
Maintenance of stitching
You need to regularly check the condition of the artificial lawn stitching to keep it intact and allow its grip to be promptly repaired to prevent it from becoming loose.
