First, and most obviously, infill weighs down the turf, which keeps it in place and helps to prevent wrinkles<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, infill adds ballast, which helps prevent your grass from taking on a matted-down look. Think of it sort of like memory foam. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third, by adding infill you protect the backing system from foot traffic and from UV radiation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Purchase Green carries a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.purchasegreen.com\/artificial-grass\/artificial-grass-installation\/infill\/\"><strong>variety of infills<\/strong><\/a>, from basic to premium.
