DuraFlo E.E.B.S (Environmentally Engineered Backing System)
Environmental Sustainability
This high-performance turf is specially treated to resist the elements and remain green for a lifetime of maintenance free beauty and enjoyment. Conservation Grass is uniquely designed to withstand extreme temperatures in hot, cold, wet and dry climates and stand up to even the heaviest amount of foot traffic.
Our products are made with fibers that are lead free and are designed with safety, durability, aesthetics, and environmental sustainability in mind. With proper care, your Conservation Grass can last 10-15 years! That's more than a decade without mowing, watering or fertilizing! And it's 100% recyclable!
Conservation Grass is recyclable thanks to our unique, all polyolefin DuraFlo backing system. DuraFlo is soft and pliable. It resists contraction and expansion and will not clog like products that use perforations for drainage. The unitary surface helps serve as a weed barrier. Conservation Grass is the only 100% Green by weight product on the market today!
