SYNLawn in proud to have been featured in the Beaverton Valley Times, within an article about backyard putting greens. The article also features quotes from our very own Roslyn McFarland, and a photo of Scott Imbach as the main image of the story.
The following is an excerpt from the article:
"The kids or the pets can go out right after it stops raining and the most they?re going to get on them is whatever water droplets are left on the blades, but there's not going to be any puddling or standing water," said McFarland turning over a piece of synthetic sod to reveal small holes poked through the backing. "The products all have drainage holes and will drain up to 40 gallons per square foot per hour, which is more than it rains anywhere in the world."
With the growing popularity of their products, synthetic lawn companies such as SYNLawn understand the importance of thinking green. The backing on SYNLawn's products is made from 60 percent post-consumer recycled material and soybean oil, which meets sustainable building requirements, according to McFarland. They also don't need chemicals, they help reduce lawn mower emissions, and they save water, which is part of the reason the developers of the Wynn Casino in Las Vegas installed 5 acres of SYNLawn's synthetic grass.
