THE PERFECT FINISHED PRODUCT
When we claim we are the best in the business, we mean it. We don’t believe in cookie-cutter putting green installations. Southwest Greens of Michigan has perfected the art and science of artificial grass installation. We have crafted and installed more than 6,000 golf greens worldwide as backyard putting greens, elegant golf courses, and more.
Here’s a quick glance at how our artificial grass and putting green installation process works:
A foundation of crushed aggregate, which, unlike concrete, can be dampened and molded to form protection against breaks and undulations.
Next, we install a minimum of a 1/4 inch cushion pad that helps ball roll and shot absorption, then comes our 1 1/8 inch advanced polypropylene turf material that is used to simulate the vivid green color, softness, and playability of real grass.
The turf is then stuffed with a mixture of fine-coated silica sand to give it the impression of natural grass.
Finally, the top layer is rolled to synthesize the feel of a true bent grass green. Options include the installation of the first and second cuts fringe, sand traps, bunkers, fairways, and roughs.
