Polyamide (PA, colloquially known as nylon) is a particularly tough and abrasion-resistant plastic. In artificial turf, it is primarily found in short, dense coverings for high-traffic areas—such as hockey fields, golf greens, or entrance areas.
Properties
- Very high abrasion resistance
- Good resilience
- Slightly firmer feel than polyethylene
For gardens, PE or a combination of PE blades and PP thatch is mostly used today.
