If you’re still wondering whether artificial grass is the right choice for you, here are the many advantages of Erby synthetic grass:
Minimal maintenance, no lawnmower, sprinklers, or fertilizers needed: just one or two brushings per year;

Non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and antistatic, making it ideal for children and pets;
Fire-resistant, class 1 according to European regulations (only with sand infill);
Perfectly draining;
Easily cleaned with water.
Certainly, artificial grass is draining because it has holes designed to allow rainwater to flow through without creating puddles or mud, provided it has an appropriate underlay.
The cost of artificial grass depends on several key factors:
Area of the surface to be covered
Type of product chosen
At ERBY, you can get your synthetic grass at very affordable prices. Additionally, with the handy configurator available on the pages of the various models, you can calculate the cost in just a few clicks.
Certainly, yes. In fact, artificial grass does not use harmful pesticides for the environment and, since it doesn’t need to be watered every day, it helps reduce the water consumption required by natural grass.
It depends on your usage needs. The height is measured in millimeters and varies according to the intended purpose. If you are choosing synthetic grass for your home garden, the choice depends on your personal taste.
Will you be using the artificial grass as a setting for outdoor tables in your business? In that case, it’s important to opt for a solution that is easy to clean, with a lower height. Is the grass going to be installed in a public place, such as a school courtyard or playground? In this case, we recommend considering, in addition to the measurements, also the durability: so a thicker and more resilient product would be better.
To make sure of your choice, visit the sample section and choose the sample box (Erby Box) with all the models in the range, or the sample bag (Erby Bag) and personalize it by selecting 3 samples.
It should be noted that there is no standard lifespan for artificial grass. Its durability over time depends mainly on four key factors:
The quality of the materials used in the production of the synthetic turf;
The accuracy of the installation, which must take into account several variables that can affect the grass’s lifespan, such as the slope and proper preparation of the base;
The intensity of use, also related to the presence of pets and children;
Proper annual maintenance.
There is no need to water artificial grass. This is a significant advantage as it eliminates the costs of irrigation and periodic mowing.
Moles are not a problem because they don’t like artificial grass and generally don’t dig through it. They usually look for food that populates the surface layers of the soil, and the base of artificial turf doesn’t contain this. However, if the ground is already populated by moles before being covered with artificial grass, it is necessary to remove the moles before installation to prevent potential damage. They could dig underneath the turf, damaging the underlay.
No, our synthetic grass is almost identical to natural grass. The color and softness of the fibers make it look and feel just like real grass.
It is a material that offers several undeniable advantages:
The warranty for our products ranges from 6 (six) to 12 (twelve) years, depending on the model, and also covers UV damage.
Before ordering your synthetic grass, you’ll need to accurately measure the area of your garden. This will allow you to calculate the right amount of turf to buy in order to cover the entire required surface.
Remember that the orientation of the fibers plays a key role in the installation of synthetic grass. If the installation involves more than one roll, it is necessary to orient the fibers in the same direction.
If your garden is square or rectangular in shape, simply measure the two sides and multiply them together. This will give you the area of your garden and the square meters to purchase. Note: it’s always a good idea to order 1 or 2 extra square meters to account for potential installation errors.
If your garden has an irregular shape, proceed as follows:
Installing synthetic grass is a feasible task: we provide all our customers with a detailed guide on the various stages of the work. You’ll just need to prepare the base, cut the grass, lay and secure the artificial turf, and finally infill and brush, using the accessories available on Erby.
On our website, there are practical video tutorials that explain in detail the various stages of installation and which equipment to use.

It is an operation that, with the right precautions, you can carry out completely on your own. However, each step must be performed with the proper care and attention, and without haste.
On our website, there are practical video tutorials that explain in detail the various stages of installation and which equipment to use.
If there is the right slope, synthetic grass can certainly be laid directly on flooring or concrete. In fact, in this case, the installation is definitely faster because there is no need to prepare the base or level the ground. However, to lay synthetic grass on concrete, it is necessary to secure the turf with glue dots or use double-sided tape.
This is one of the main advantages of artificial grass, which has contributed to its growing popularity. However, before proceeding with the installation, it’s necessary to properly prepare the base. Installation on concrete or tiles is even easier because it doesn’t require preparing the sub-base.
It’s not difficult to cut synthetic grass: just carefully measure and proceed with a utility knife to cut the backing.
This is a crucial step. The installation and anchoring of non-woven fabric (TNT) serves to block the potential growth of weeds and the possible rise of earthworms from the soil.
Infill with sand is essential and mandatory with any type of installed product because:
No, because the sand will settle at the bottom of the fibers, so your synthetic grass will look even better. Additionally, the sand helps the fibers maintain their vertical position, and with this system, the fibers all take different directions, making the turf look more natural. Another advantage of using sand is that your grass won’t flatten with use.
If there are pets, we will apply a special procedure that involves infilling the turf with pre-mixed silica sand and zeolite with a grain size of 0.1/0.3: a volcanic mineral that retains the ammonia present in urine, thus preventing the formation of unpleasant odors.
Here are our tips for proper maintenance:
Perform at least one or two brushings of the turf per year with a dedicated brush machine; if the lawn is heavily used, it’s better to do more. We recommend purchasing an electric brush machine for larger areas, available at affordable prices on our e-commerce. For areas under 20 sqm, you can also use hard-bristle plastic sweepers, brushing against the fibers. DO NOT use metal rakes as they damage the turf.
Keep your synthetic lawn free from leaves by using blowers or plastic leaf collectors.
Any weeds in the infill sand or along the perimeter should be removed manually or by applying small amounts of weed killer to dry them out.
If you have pets, we recommend washing the turf with water and sanitizing it as needed with specific sanitizing liquids (Do not use harsh detergents or chlorine).
Synthetic grass is the ideal solution for the hygiene and safety of pets because it is suitable for intensive use. The synthetic turf does not discolor or change when in contact with waste. Without dirt, holes, or mud, your furry friends will be able to enjoy the garden in complete freedom.
A high-quality synthetic lawn is immune to damage caused by animal urine. However, to combat odors, it is advisable to use infill with zeolite. Alternatively, we recommend using a sanitizing product to keep your lawn always animal-proof.
The number of periodic washes depends heavily on the use of the grass. In the case of heavy use by a pet, disinfecting with specific cleaners to prevent bad odors will be essential, in addition to the usual cleaning with water.
In summary, we recommend:
An annual brushing of the grass, which not only keeps it clean but also ensures the synthetic grass fibers are lifted and aligned in one direction, giving the garden a uniform and realistic look.
Basic cleaning of the synthetic grass with just water. Avoid detergents, especially aggressive ones, to prevent discoloration or corrosion of the grass.
Disinfection when a deeper cleaning is needed, especially in the presence of pets, using a special disinfectant. This will disinfect the grass and prevent unpleasant odors.
