kblaze Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Anyone have experience with buying the "fake" green grass to put on your patio or someplace indoor? I got a 2 meter by 1 meter strip of really good quality stuff that feels like the real thing when you walk on it, but it was quite expensive at 1,500 baht from Homepro.

dotpoom Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Your OP grabbed my attention. That sounds interesting, I thought to myself. I'm not wearing my glasses and thought it was about "Fake Glass". 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Haven't had any dealings with this company but have seen them on Facebook, might have something for you. http://www.freshygrass.com A site with fantastic choice of different plastic grass but unfortunately all in Thai so I can't do my sums. Like the OP after replacing my lawn seemingly every year and being unable to buy grass seed I am looking at artificial but so far suppliers seem incredibly expensive.

topt Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I looked at this stuff in Homepro, HomeMart and Watsadu when they were on offer and tried to read the instructions (in English) on the label. My memory is it seemed fairly restrictive in how well it would hold up when exposed to the elements. You need to put a barrier down if on earth for example and then there did not seem that many perforations to allow water to escape. I would also be very interested in anybody who has used it as I have a dustbowl where the dogs track through all the time next to a concrete patio and want to alleviate the dust in some way.

Go to the bottom and you'll find this link: Artificial grass flooring 15mm.

Walter Travolta Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Im a carpet fitter in the UK and carpet warehouses supply artificial grass. I believe it starts at trade at around 500baht a SQ MTR. I know the UK is NOT Thailand before anyone pipes up lol I just wanted to see how the prices compare. I can lay artificial grass but please do not think you just roll it out and cut it in. There is a lot of prep work required and additional materials. There are many videos on Youtube showing how it should be laid Im back in December if you will be looking for it fitting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SidJames Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I have a big yard & was thinking of putting in a small pitch of 50x25 metres for the nippers. Has anyone put any fake grass in lately & can recommend a company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone put any fake grass in lately & can recommend a company? My folks have it in the UK... It was too hot for my son to play on in the Summer. Thus: Consider where it will be and how much sun it will be exposed to - it may be too hot to actually use / enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
