Does higher-density artificial turf resist flattening better?
Not necessarily. Density needs to be balanced with fiber geometry, Dtex, grass height, backing construction, and intended traffic level.
Is thicker artificial grass better at preventing flattening?
Not always. Very tall fibers can require more structural support. For many residential applications, a moderate grass height combined with a resilient fiber profile can provide a good balance between appearance, maintenance, and recovery.
Can brushing restore flattened artificial turf?
It can often improve temporary flattening caused by traffic or furniture. However, permanently deformed fibers may not fully recover.
How often should non-infill turf be brushed?
For residential areas, every one to three months can be a reasonable starting point, with frequency adjusted according to traffic. High-use sports facilities normally require a more structured maintenance program.
Does artificial turf density affect drainage?
Yes. Density is only one factor, but excessive fiber packing can influence water movement through the turf layer. Backing perforation, base drainage, and site slope are equally important.
Is Dtex the most important parameter?
No. Dtex describes yarn weight and is useful for comparing products, but it should be considered together with fiber profile, density, recovery performance, UV resistance, and anchoring strength.
