Professional Opinion
Do The Job artificial turf is a lightweight grass with average softness and less than average cushioning. It recovers well and looks new after a bit of brushing, but can become matted down fairly quickly. The low-density turf makes the temperature under the direct sun lower than average. The material is less resistant to wear and tear and showed signs of heavy use making it ideal for low foot traffic.
See the results and test specifications below.
Test Results
Softness
Meter showed 90 degrees of angle adjustment.
Average softness.
Cushion
The tennis ball jumped 22 inches. For reference, the office carpet jumps the ball 36 inches.
Recovery
Blades recovered 94%
Temperature test
The recorded temperature is 93 degrees. This is 17 degrees cooler than a 2 mm stainless steel plate under the same conditions.
Wear and Tear
Blades changed shape, recovered to 75%. Wear is visible. No structural damage to blades or backing.
Test Specifications
Every test we conduct is measured and compared to a test item for easier understanding.
- How do you measure turf softness?
-
We brush the turf 5 times with an angle measurement tool that is resistant to friction. The softer the turf, the less movement we will see on the ruler.
The fewer degrees on the ruler, the softer the turf.
- How do you measure cushion?
-
We drop a tennis ball #3 from 6 ft. above directly on the surface of the turf to measure the cushion. The less it bounces, the more cushion the artificial grass provides.
We compare results to the bounce carpet provides for clarity.
- How do you determine turf recovery?
-
We place a 30lb weight on the artificial grass material for 5 minutes, then wait 15 minutes at room temperature and measure blade length compared to the original.
- How do you measure temperature?
-
We measure the temperature under the direct sun after 30 minutes of exposure without wind.
As a data backup, we compare this to the temperature of a stainless steel plate under the same conditions.
- How do you assess wear and tear?
-
We apply an abrasive brush to the turf for a period of 30 seconds and observe the blade's structure afterward. We look for damage, twist, recovery, and blade structure deformation.
