What is the best thickness for artificial grass?

The biggest benefit of artificial grass is its customisability. 

From height, thickness, colour and optional extras, such as odour-eating ash for pets and shock pads for children, you can choose an artificial lawn that works for you. 

Here at Easigrass Essex & Hertfordshire, we provide a range of artificial grass with different pile heights and pile densities, dictating its overall thickness. After all, different applications require different thicknesses of grass.

Let’s take a look at our range of pile heights along with their benefits and applications. 

What’s the difference between pile height and pile density?

Pile height refers to how tall the grass blades are. For a freshly cut grass look, the shorter the better. For those who favour a more natural, luxurious grass look, then you’ll want to opt for a taller pile height. 

Pile density refers to how closely the blades are stitched together. 

Both height and density will dictate how thick or dense your grass is. So let’s take a closer look at the range of options available here at Easigrass Essex & Hertfordshire. 

Holland Park 32mm

The shortest pile height but also the most durable product we have available, thanks to the strong Dtex yarn. Holland Park grass is specifically designed to withstand heavy footfall, making it perfect for commercial locations such as schools, nurseries and universities. Resilient and hardy, it’s also useful for busy back gardens or some sporting applications. 

Easi-Pet 38mm

Designed to be kind to your furry friends, our Easi-Pet grass is the perfect choice for pet owners who want to keep their pooches in a safe, hygienic and comfortable environment.

High density pile and super strong yarn means this grass contributes towards a safe, comfortable and resilient environment for energetic pets that will also not become patchy over time, due to the dense pile. 

Knightsbridge 38mm

A multi-application product thanks to its thickness, authentic two-tone appearance and its 38mm natural-look pile height. It is sold primarily as event grass because of its luxurious feel, authentic appearance and minimal maintenance. The addition of brown thatch rootzone and a filling of dead grass contributes to its ultra-realistic look. 

Belgravia 40mm

Belgravia’s taller pile height and high-density pile stitching makes for a natural looking lawn that awards a comfortable experience for all the family, pets and children included. It’s also a lighter hue, perfect for brightening up darker areas of the lawn where natural grass might have otherwise suffered. 

Chelsea 40mm

A soft, dense and cushioned pile makes this option most suited to lawns but also terraces and patios for both domestic and commercial applications. The extra soft yarn elevates this comfortable cushioned feel, while the dead grass infill assists with its realistic look. 

Mayfair 50mm

This tall, ultra-thick and multi-directional grass is the award-winning Mayfair. It is primarily used in show gardens or for families that want that added bit of luxury and durability to their home. It is suitable for all domestic applications ranging from lawns to terraces.
