A Product That Defines Logic
As in any industry, not all turf products are created equal. ProLawn’s line of ProGreen turf products are evaluated and chosen based on specific attributes that help ensure the lifetime look and performance of the turf products.
Unique attributes of ProGreen turf include being manufactured in the US, patented 100% permeable ProFlow Backing System, low to NO shine yarns, lower abrasion fibers with varying blade shapes, and Cool Turf systems are crucial to the long term success of the installation. Discontinued use of the black crumb rubber in-fill systems have also created a cleaner, less harmful turf solution.
These characteristics have been developed to satisfy the demand of first generation turf clients who have experienced the downsides of the common “fake grass.” ProLawn’s owners benefit from having been installing turf during the first generation of landscape use and have been instrumental in making changes to improve these downsides first hand. Everyone says they have the best turf product available, but few explain why other than how it looks. ProLawn has done the research and has the technical data and experience to back it up!
A Proven Turf Installation Process
Please forgive us, but we are going to employ the 5th amendment here. However, our turf installation process is exactly what it says …it’s proven. Now, we can’t give away all of our trade secrets but we are happy to go over the process with you in person. The important question is how has it been proven. This is a question that ProLawn loves to answer. “By learning the hard way what doesn’t work!” Fortunately, we are a quick study. After 19 years of installation experience, we know our process works and stand behind it.
Our turf installation process ensures that our customers are delivered the highest quality grass lawns for their homes or businesses. Here are a few other questions that ProLawn loves to answer…
- What base material do you use? – The kind of base material that will not fail. How do we know…because years ago we were using the material that many other installers use and were put in a position wherein we had to replace a $15,000 golf green because the client walked across it after a rainstorm and left footprints. That was the last job we used the material that cost less and is readily available at every landscape supply yard. We know that the material we use works because that has not happened since
- How are your seams put together? – So well that if we ever had to take one apart, we would actually have to cut a new line outside of the seam rather than pull the seam apart.
- How much infill do you put in your turf? – More than the manufacturers recommend because many areas in Southern California have a greater temperature variation through the year and it takes more weight that the generic recommendation to prevent the expansion and contraction that is inherent in turf.
ProLawn uses the patent-pending ProFlow Backing System that allows for 100% drainage throughout the entire surface. The ProFlow backing is comprised of two heavy gauge woven layers, one five-pick layer, and a final coating of a high-viscosity polyurethane compound. Before this compound is applied to the turf it’s injected with air, creating passages that allow for free flow drainage. ProFlow will provide a percolation rate that stays consistent throughout the life of your turf system.

One of the most common complaints with artificial turf is the tendency of the fibers to mat down over time under foot traffic. Most turf products use fibers that have minimal, if any, shape. ProLawn offers a different fibers profiles that allow the turf to stay upright, including Diamond shaped, S shaped, and blended Diamond/S shaped products. ProLawn also offers state of the art dual fiber landscaping turf, which improves the structural integrity of the turf system by an impressive amount.
Another complaint with turf products is that the fibers, once installed, are very shiny and look very unrealistic. One sure fire way to pick out a fake lawn is the lustrous appearance of morning dew….except it’s the middle of the day and it is 90 degrees out! ProLawn Turf’s entire product line is made with a unique low to NO luster yarn to reduce reflection and give the turf a much more realistic look. This reduces glare also helps to promote cooler temperatures in direct sunlight.
ProLawn’s turf products, from the blades to the backing system, are comprised completely of polyolefin materials. Polyolefins absorb almost no moisture as compared to other backing adhesives such as urethane and latex, which absorb as much as 5% to 6% of their mass. Absorbing and releasing water leads to expansion and contraction of the turf product as ambient conditions change. With the ProFlow system, this creeping effect is negligible, and therefore makes a more stable turf system and puts less stress on seams.v
