2. ProFlow Urethane Backing

If you are considering converting to artificial turf for an easier life, it is important if you have pets, especially dogs that you choose the right grass. At K9 Turf Cardiff all our grasses are made with a Pro Flow Urethane Backing, so you can be confident that your artificial lawn will be 100% pet friendly with us.

Our specialist designed Pro Flow Urethane Backing has been manufactured in the USA using the most advanced technology in the industry. It is made up of four individual layers, each with their own purpose for making our turf pet friendly. The first layer is made using a Pro Flow non-perforated backing, speeding up the flow of moisture, not trapping any inside the backing unlike latex backed grasses. The second layer is a 5-pick layer, again leaving space for moisture to freely flow through without building up a strong smell of ammonia. This is followed by two layers of Heavy Gauge Woven material, this makes the grass extremely heavy duty, able to withstand high usage from pets, allowing the artificial grass to last for many years to come.

The specialist Pro Flow backing is topped with a heavy-duty artificial grass yarn. Its oval shape creates a springy surface which you won’t have to worry about going flat unlike flat yarn grasses. The yarn is low sheen and is intertwined with brown thatch to create an all round natural looking lawn that will stay looking bright and neat all year round.

Why Your Pets Need Urethane Backed Grass

We have many customers get in touch with us who have already had artificial grass laid that is now ruined by the stench of ammonia produced from pet waste. Many companies in the industry will promote latex backed grasses as pet friendly but unfortunately these types of grasses are 100% unsuitable for pets.

Latex backed grass will hold moisture, creating harmful bacteria that not only effects pets but can also be harmful towards children and adults who also use the lawn. A year or two after having your artificial grass lawn laid if it has a latex backing, you will notice the nasty odour produced from the ammonia in pet waste, unfortunately once this arrives it can only be reduced by approximately 30% if cleaned using even the best artificial grass cleaners on the market, even if you have a warranty for your installation this probably will not be covered. We understand that artificial grass is a big investment, therefore the last thing you want to be doing is having to replace your artificial lawn not long after it has been installed.

At K9 Turf Cardiff you will have the peace of mind that your artificial lawn is guaranteed 100% pet friendly. Due to the specialist Pro Flow backing your lawn will stay fresh and ammonia free all year round. Our annual maintenance service package will guarantee your lawn for up to 18 years, it also means we do the maintenance work for you!
