The benefits of having an artificial lawn are numerous. Besides the obvious benefits such as no longer having to mow the lawn, no more mess, and a cleaner, secure environment for the family to enjoy all year round, there are also many money-saving benefits that mean choosing artificial turf is a great financial investment.

During a typical Australian Summer, the typical residential lawn will require around 25mm of water every week. For the average sized garden, of around 50 square meters, this is equivalent to 1, 250 litres of water every week!

With artificial lawn, there is no watering involved apart from the occasional spray down for cleaning purposes. As you can imagine this certainly makes a difference to your annual water bill.
