Artificial turf for urban spaces and public works: aesthetic all year round, no watering and no puddles
In the city, durability and accessibility are as important as appearance.
Artificial turf for urban spaces and public works is installed on concrete, asphalt or tiles with a clean assembly, it maintains a uniform aesthetic all year round and its draining backing avoids waterlogging.
The result: walkable spaces, without irrigation or mowing and with minimal operating costs.

What is the best artificial turf for public areas?
The choice of the best artificial turf for urban spaces depends on a number of factors. The turf has to match the actual use, the surface and the required maintenance. So choose your synthetic turf:
- If traffic is very high (squares, accesses, itineraries)
- Height: 25–35 mm (easy to clean, no "combing" with use).
- Fibre: shaped monofilament + support crimp for recovery.
- Density: high (better resilience and uniform appearance).
- Backing: draining and stable + slope to gratings → no puddles.
- Safety: anti-slip surface, flush edges (accessibility) and flame retardant if required by regulations.
- Installation: on hard surface (concrete/asphalt/tile) with strip + adhesive; on earth, compacted base (gravel + sand) and profiled edges.
- If the use is mixed (rest areas, civic courtyards, retail access)
- Height: 30–40 mm (comfort/cleanliness balance).
- Fibre: monofilament + curly, multi-tone (natural look).
- Extras: possibility of silica for stability at pivot points and better ageing.
- If decorative/non-trafficable (roundabouts, medians, embankments)
- Height: 30–40 mm with multi-tone (visual impact) and high UV protection.
- Prioritise drainage and perimeter anchoring; minimal maintenance.
Advantages of artificial turf in public areas and cities
The main advantages offered by artificial turf in urban spaces are the following:
- No watering or mowing: lower operating costs and no maintenance interruptions.
- Rapid drainage: walkable squares and walkways even after heavy rainfall.
- Suitable for high traffic: maintains its shape and appearance in busy entrances.
- Aesthetics all year round: uniform greenery in roundabouts and hard-to-maintain areas.
- Accessible and slip-resistant: safe routes for pedestrians, pushchairs and wheelchairs.
- Clean and quick set-up: perfect for events, one-off performances or express renovations.

How do our installers install artificial turf on public works sites?
We detail so that you don't have any doubts, how we install artificial grass for urban spaces and public works:
- Preparation of the substrate: the surface is cleaned, levelled and the slope towards the drains is checked to ensure efficient water drainage.
- Base (if earth): a compacted drainage layer is created with gravel and sand; on hard surfaces such as concrete or tile, existing joints and dips are checked.
- Installation and joints: adhesive bonding strip (or self-adhesive system) is used and the edges are finished off flush, accessible and vandal-resistant.
- Final brushing: brushing is carried out to lift the fibre and, if necessary, silica is applied to improve the stability of the assembly.

Frequently asked questions about artificial turf for urban spaces or public works
Can artificial turf be laid on asphalt, concrete or tiles?
Yes, artificial turf can be installed over asphalt, concrete or tile using joint tape and adhesive, provided that joints and slopes are checked to ensure a clean and draining finish.
How is synthetic turf maintained in areas with a lot of foot traffic and dirt (leaves, sand, chewing gum)?
It is easily maintained with gentle vacuuming, occasional removal of debris such as leaves or chewing gum, and programmed brushing to recover the fibre and preserve its appearance.
How do you deal with accessibility (curbs, ramps, wheelchairs)?
We solve accessibility with flush finishes, non-slip surfaces and adjustments that allow safe passage for wheelchairs, pushchairs and pedestrians.
What about rainwater?
Artificial turf evacuates rainwater quickly thanks to its draining backing and the slope towards gratings or drains, avoiding puddles and allowing immediate use of the space.
Does it withstand continuous sunshine and a coastal climate?
Yes, our models withstand continuous sun and coastal weather thanks to their UV protection, which maintains colour and softness even in extreme conditions.
What is the lifespan of artificial turf for urban spaces?
The lifespan of artificial turf for urban spaces can exceed 10 years, provided it is installed correctly and maintained with a basic routine.
