OUR ARTIFICIAL TURF INSTALLATION PROCESS



THE MASTER OF INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY

Southwest Greens knows how to bring truly excellent styles to life. Since 1996, we’ve created a reputation for building quality golf greens, earning the attention of over two dozen top PGA Tour pros who have had Southwest Greens turf installed at their homes.

Architects and contractors rely on companies that always deliver excellent installations, and those professional relationships are just as important to us as those with homeowners. Made in the USA by Shaw Industries, a Berkshire Hathaway company, and installed using systems proven for performance, you’ll have the satisfaction and assistance of a global leader while working with local, value-oriented craftsmen.

Our leadership goes beyond excellent craftsmanship; Shaw Industries’ committed R&D team has developed innovations such as the Bolt™ fiber and HydroChill® evaporative cooling technology – a powerful combination that offers distinction and comfort. Southwest Greens, a wholly-owned subsidiary, is thrilled to continually improve and enhance the work we already do.

THE PERFECT FINISHED PRODUCT

We’ve crafted and installed over 6,000 golf greens around the globe as backyard putting greens, luxurious golf courses, and more.


Here’s a quick glance at how our artificial grass and putting green installation process works:


A base of crushed aggregate, which, unlike concrete, can be moistened and molded to form protection against breaks and waves.

Next, we install a minimum of a 1/4 inch cushion pad that helps ball roll and shot absorption, then we install our 1 1/8 inch state-of-the-art polypropylene turf material that is used to simulate the vivid green color, softness, and playability of real grass.

The turf is then stuffed with a combination of fine-coated silica sand to give it the feeling of natural grass.
