Abstract
A synthetic-grass structure for laying on a subfloor comprises a sheet substrate with a plurality of filiform formations extending upwards from the substrate to simulate natural grass cover and a particulate filling material or infill dispersed between the filiform formations in such a way as to maintain the filiform formations in a substantially upright condition. The infill includes a substantially homogeneous mass of a granular material selected from polyolefin-based materials and vinyl-polymer-based materials, preferably recycled ones.
Claims25
A synthetic-grass cover structure comprising:
- a sheet substrate with a plurality of filiform formations that extend from the substrate to simulate natural grass cover;
- and
- a particulate filling material or infill dispersed between said filiform formations in such a way as to maintain the latter in a substantially upright condition,
- wherein said particulate infill consists of a substantially homogeneous mass of a granular material chosen from the group consisting of materials comprising polyolefin and materials comprising vinyl-polymer.
A particulate filling material or infill for synthetic-grass covers, said infill being dispersible between the filiform formations simulating the grass cover in such a way as to maintain the filiform formations themselves in a substantially upright condition,
- wherein said particulate infill consists of a substantially homogeneous mass of a granular material chosen from the group consisting of materials comprising polyolefin and materials comprising vinyl-polymer.
A synthetic-grass cover structure comprising:
- a sheet substrate with a plurality of filiform formations that extend from the substrate to simulate natural grass cover;
- and
- a particulate filling material or infill dispersed between said filiform formations in such a way as to maintain the latter in a substantially upright condition,
- wherein said particulate infill consists of a substantially homogeneous mass of a granular material chosen from the group consisting of polyolefin-based materials and vinyl-polymer-based materials and
- wherein said particulate infill has a density of 1.5-1.6 grams/cm3.
A synthetic-grass cover structure comprising:
- a sheet substrate with a plurality of filiform formations that extend from the substrate to simulate natural grass cover;
- and
- a particulate filling material or infill dispersed between said filiform formations in such a way as to maintain the latter in a substantially upright condition,
- wherein said particulate infill consists of a substantially homogeneous mass of a granular material chosen from the group consisting of polyolefin-based materials and vinyl-polymer-based materials;
- and
- wherein said particulate infill is dispersed in a quantity ranging substantially between 15 and 21 kg/m2.
