What It’s Made From

The best synthetic grass material for high-traffic areas is nylon. This is stronger than products made from polypropylene or polyethylene, the two other common fibers used in fake grass.

Nylon grass is much more resilient than either of these two types. So if you need to install artificial grass in a high-traffic area, choose a product made from 100% nylon.

However, if you don’t need to worry about hundreds of theme park visitors or dozens of games taking place on the lawn, you can use a polypropylene or polyethylene product. These come much cheaper while still lasting under moderate use.
