Why Schools Are Switching to Sustainable Artificial Grass

Safer for Children

Our ARTTRAGrass® bio-backed system eliminates:

  • Harmful odours
  • Toxic components
  • Traditional fossil-heavy latex backings

For schools, this means:

  • Safer play environments
  • Reduced allergy risk
  • Cleaner playground surfaces

Designed for High Footfall & Heavy Use

School environments are relentless. Daily wear includes:

  • Running
  • Football
  • PE lessons
  • Break times
  • After-school clubs

Our 25mm system is engineered for:

  • Long-term pile resilience
  • UV stability
  • All-weather performance
  • Low maintenance

Low Carbon. Future-Focused.

Sustainability is no longer optional for schools — it’s a procurement requirement.

ARTTRAGrass® dramatically reduces fossil fuel dependency through pioneering backing technology, helping schools:

  • Meet ESG targets
  • Support net-zero commitments
  • Demonstrate environmental leadership
  • Improve sustainability reporting
