When selecting artificial turf, one of the most important decisions is whether to choose infill or non-infill systems. Both types have distinct structures, performance advantages, and ideal applications. This guide will walk you through a detailed comparison to help you make the best decision for your project.
What Is Infill Artificial Grass?
Infill turf systems contain a layer of granulated materials—such as silica sand, rubber granules, or eco-friendly infills—distributed between the fibers. These materials serve several functions:
- Keep the fibers upright and resilient
- Enhance shock absorption and player safety
- Improve surface grip and drainage
- Increase the lifespan of the turf under heavy use
Common Applications: Football fields, rugby pitches, school playgrounds, and other high-traffic sports areas.
