Say Goodbye to Allergies: The Top 5 Health Benefits of Artificial Grass
Did you know? The health benefits of artificial grass can significantly boost the enjoyment and usability of your outdoor space.
From reducing pollen count in your garden to creating a safer, chemical-free lawn for the little ones, there are many reasons why artificial grass installation can benefit the health of your family, including children and pets.
So let’s find out more.
1) Reduces allergy symptoms
Pollen can make summer a miserable affair. Reduce grass allergies by eliminating natural grass in your garden.
Of course, the wind can carry pollen from other places but by ridding yourself of a natural lawn on your own property, you can significantly lessen the pollen count in your garden to improve the comfort and health of your family. This includes pets who can also suffer from pollen allergies, believe it or not.
But perhaps you’re worried about sacrificing the natural appearance of your lawn? Luckily, our artificial lawns at Easigrass Glasgow are crafted to look and feel like the real thing, allowing you to enjoy an authentic-looking lawn without the sneezes.
2) Creates a bug-free environment
There’s much to be said for lawns supporting local biodiversity. But some bugs can become pests and a nuisance.
If your children, pets or indeed anyone in your family is more vulnerable to insect stings and bites, it can really impede their enjoyment of a garden. Not to mention that bug infestations can take effort and harmful chemicals to keep in check.
One way of creating a bug-free lawn is through laying artificial grass. As a natural pest control option, everyone can play and interact with the garden safely and without the need for spraying chemicals or worrying about bites.
3) Eliminates the need for toxic chemicals
Natural lawns need more work and chemicals to maintain, while chemical-free artificial grass can create a healthier environment for everyone to spend time in. The hazards of pesticides, herbicides and fertilisers can include increased risk of cancer, neurological disorders and possible exacerbation of asthma. These chemicals can also drain away with the rain into groundwater and surface water bodies, resulting in increased levels of pollution.
Artificial grass for children will particularly benefit from this chemical-free trait, as children require an even safer environment than adults.
4) Reduces exposure to harmful bacteria
If you’re searching for antibacterial artificial grass, then our options will be perfect for you. That’s because natural grass has the potential to harbour harmful bacteria and fungi, especially if pets use it as a toilet.
So what are the antibacterial properties of synthetic lawns? Our artificial grass for pets is specially designed with an odour-eating infill and a free-draining membrane to prevent bacterial build-up from pet toileting.
Its free-draining design and synthetic blades also make for easier cleaning and hosing down, keeping harmful bacteria to a minimum.
5) Boosts mood and decreases stress
Greenery has been proven to reduce stress and improve mood. But a green space isn’t always possible for some people due to the maintenance requirements and upkeep of a real lawn. That’s why artificial grass is so useful for busy families, bustling facilities or those who have mobility issues that prevent garden maintenance.
With artificial grass, everyone can benefit from the mood-boosting properties of a green space without the upkeep.
In summary
It should now be clear how much artificial grass can improve the health of families and facilities. If you’re interested in artificial grass for gardens and schools, we can suggest your best options from our range of grass products.
