Technical term from the TOP GREEN Artificial Grass Glossary – clearly explained based on over 25 years of experience.

Briefly explained

Polypropylene (PP) is a lightweight, dimensionally stable plastic. In artificial turf, it is mainly used in the backing and for the crimped thatch.

Properties

  • dimensionally stable and cost-effective
  • slightly stiffer than polyethylene
  • as the sole fibre material, it is only common in simple, low-cost turf

With very inexpensive artificial turf made entirely of PP, you should pay attention to UV stability and the warranty.
