How to choose the best artificial turf for outdoor areas
Choosing artificial grass for terraces is not just a matter of aesthetics. Factors such as the type of surface, drainage, the traffic it will withstand and resistance to sun and heat are key to ensuring a long-lasting and functional result.
Therefore, in order to select the right model, it is important to look at the following characteristics:
- Surface and fixing: if your subfloor is tile or concrete, the right thing to use is joint tape + adhesive: this ensures a flat and secure finish. Then finish off the edges flush with profiling; this prevents tripping, raised edges and extends the life of the perimeter.
- Height and density according to actual use: on compact terraces and balconies, 20–30 mm works best: it is comfortable, brushes easily and does not "squash" visually. If you are looking for extra softness for lounge areas with sun loungers, go up to 30–35 mm (as long as drainage is good and there is no excessive silica carry-over).
- Thermal and sun resistance: UV protection is essential to maintain colour and feel. Multi-green tones are better at hiding everyday wear and tear. And if your terrace "bakes" in summer, choose medium or light greens: they absorb less heat and feel more comfortable to walk on.
- Drainage and cleaning: the winning tandem is perforated backing + real slope to drains; this avoids puddles and speeds up cleaning. With pets, raise the bar: look for high drainage flow and compatibility with water + soap for hassle-free sanitising.
- Barefoot comfort: for a gentle tread that doesn't sacrifice durability, go for curved monofilament combined with textured fibres: it is soft to the touch and at the same time recovers well after use.
- What if you want a vertical artificial grass garden? lightweight panels (10–25 mm) with drainage and UV backing are ideal. Fix mechanically (dowels/screws with staples or profiles) on firm surfaces — avoid gluing on poorly anchored paint. Gain depth by combining with climbers or artificial plants. Outdoors, respect expansion joints and make sure the wall does not retain moisture. Design tip: 20–30 mm floor + 10–20 mm vertical panel creates a very clean “immersion effect”, without overloading.

Step by step: How our installers install artificial grass on terraces
Our professional team transforms your terrace, rooftop or balcony into a green and functional space in a matter of hours.
- Preparation of the substrate: we clean the surface, level it and check the slope towards the drains or drains to ensure optimal drainage.
- Cutting and fitting: we cut the pieces to size, adapting them to the perimeter, skirting boards and pillars. We align the fibres to achieve a uniform and natural finish.
- Fixing and bonding: we use bonding tape and adhesive (or self-adhesive system) on tiles or concrete. We finish the edges for a secure and durable installation.
- Final brushing: we brush the turf against the grain to lift the fibres. If the model requires it, we apply silica for greater stability and comfort.
