Natural grass can be bumpy and uneven, especially when exposed to heavy wear and tear, harsh weather conditions, or hole-digging pests. Holes, divots, and excess debris can cause a trip hazard for persons with physical disabilities, causing great harm.
Thankfully, artificial grass makes these physical hazards a thing of the past. Synthetic grass is designed to be consistently flat and supported by solid infill and turf backing, resulting in increased mobility and a safe outdoor environment. Persons with physical disabilities can work with the installation experts at Grizzly Turf to decide on an artificial turf product with a short pile length to maximize accessibility.
SYNTHETIC TURF SUITABLE FOR WHEELCHAIR USERS
If a wheelchair user sees a natural grass surface, they will not travel smoothly across to get to their desired point. Soft terrain and wet ground can pose a grave threat to the wheelchair user’s safety, and play areas with bark hinder parents who use wheelchairs from playing with their children.
