Abstract: Artificial turf (100) comprising a. a backing (200) having an upper and a lower surface; and b. a plurality of first synthetic grass fibers (300) attached to and extending upward from the upper surface of said backing; and c. a plurality of second synthetic grass fibers (400) attached to and extending upward from the upper surface of said backing; wherein the height of the first synthetic grass fibers is higher than the height of the second synthetic grass fibers.

Abstract: The present invention seeks to provide artificial turf that imitates more closely the root zone, the volume effect, and density of natural grass and that has an improved wear and drainage property. An artificial turf adapted for use in landscape and sports applications comprises a mechanically bounded layer of fibers formed as a non-woven matting made of one or more natural and/or synthetic fibers. A plurality of tufts of pile yarn is inserted through the mechanically bounded layer of fibers. A backing is applied at the backside of the mechanically bounded layer of fibers enhancing anchoring the tufts to the mechanically bounded layer of fibers.

Abstract: The present application relates to artificial turf monofilaments (100) and to methods of their manufacture.
