At SYNLawn San Diego, we offer artificial grass in San Diego, CA, that is made PFAS-free. Our company is known for its efforts to create artificial turf that is friendly to people and the environment alike. We have paved the way for synthetic turf throughout our region with years of research and development and by working closely with our clients. Beyond our eco-friendly efforts, we are now one of the only turf manufacturers in San Diego to provide artificial turf that is manufactured PFAS-free!
What Are PFAS?
PFAS are a class of compounds that are known for their extreme persistence in the environment. Some can survive for hundreds of years, earning the name “forever chemicals,” and have been linked to negative health impacts. These can include effects on the thyroid and liver, as well as effects on metabolism, development, neurotoxicity, and immunotoxicity. Unfortunately, they can often be found in everyday household items, such as non-stick cookware, toilet paper, nail polish, dental floss, shampoo, cell phones, microwavable popcorn bags, carpeting, and much more.
Addressing Concerns with PFAS and Artificial Grass
SYNLawn and its parent company, SportGroup, have become the first ESG-rated (Environmental, Social, Governance) sports flooring producers to attach high importance and focus on the environmental sustainability of all our products and services. As a technology leader, SYNLawn has invested and continues to invest time, money, and efforts to make the most environmentally friendly and sustainable artificial grass for communities across the United States, including San Diego, California. We understand the concerns related to these “forever chemicals” and take our responsibility seriously as we continue to monitor and safeguard the overall quality and safety of our products.
What Is San Diego Artificial Grass from SYNLawn Made Of?
SYNLawn is the first turf company to manufacture artificial grass with plant-based materials. Along with our efforts to remove PFAS from our manufacturing, we replace substantial amounts of petroleum from our manufacturing with renewable soybeans and sugar cane. We have a strong relationship with American farmers, and with their help, our team at SYNLawn San Diego has become the first to offer USDA-certified synthetic grass in our market.
In addition, we never use rubber crumbs as an infill in our synthetic turf. Instead, we utilize the antimicrobial acrylic sand infill, Envirofill®. Like all of our innovations, Envirofill® is an eco-friendly solution to rubber crumbs and is a highly effective way to help control odors that are caused by ammonia in pet waste.
