Great for Pet Friendly Communities and high foot traffic areas: Why is Synthetic turf a good landscaping alternative for Pet friendly communities?  "Urine will not damage the lawn and Dogs cannot dig it up, Cleans up easily, Urine drains right through it, does not track mud or grass clippings; it’s a Smart environmental choice that will benefit the community for many years to come, and its resilient to foot traffic" says the HOA landscaping expert.

Installing a Synthetic artificial grass system for apartment landscaping alone can save literally thousands of gallons of water per year. “On an average-sized sports field or large expansive lawn area, that number skyrockets to millions of gallons per year”.
