Finally, the quality level of artificial grass is also very important. Some important factors determine this quality level. First of all, artificial grass is made of synthetic fibers. These fibers are the most important elements of artificial grass. Other than these, technical issues like weaving density, pile weight, and the height of the fibers are important features that designate the quality level.
These are all some important features and determiners of the product. So, can you paint artificial grass? The answer is yes. Because artificial grass is also a manufactured product and no one can stop you if you want to paint. But should you paint artificial grass? Or as a manufacturer of them for many years, does Ekip Grass Companyrecommend painting artificial grass? The answer is NO. Because the artificial grass manufacturing process is very complicated and requires improved technological methods. We paint the product during the manufacturing process with special devices. Or, in other words, we produce them originally in the desired colors.

On the other hand, this process will most probably harm the product, make it lose its general features like UV-resistance. This will shorten the life period of artificial grass. Also, making a structural change will violate the warranty agreement.
