With a 2 ½” pile height the Augusta Artificial Grass with built-in Microban® Antimicrobial Technology is a stunner. The durable S-blade ribbed surface texture with Luster Guard™ is the lowest luster UV stabilized turf yarn in the industry. These microscopic ribs eliminate the shiny mirror effect that makes artificial grass look like plastic as well as eliminating weak points in the fibers creating unprecedented split resistance. S-Blade fiber wear was tested at 50,000 cycles (50,000 cycles= 20 yrs of wear). This Lisport test gives a visual indication on how a synthetic turf system will age in time.
