Blackburn 8mm Artificial Grass

Our Blackburn 8mm grass makes it easy to revamp your outdoor space. This budget artificial grass is affordable, easy to install and durable, making it ideal for a quick garden makeover, an event or anywhere you need a splash of colour.

Pet- and child-friendly

Blackburn 8mm is an affordable option for outdoor spaces used by children and pets. The short, sturdy pile stands up to everyday wear and tear. It has no drainage holes, but it does have a free-draining backing.

If you’d prefer a grass designed specifically for pets, look for options with an odour-resistant backing.

Quality and durability on a budget

This versatile artificial turf has a 3/16″ tuft gauge and can withstand moderate to heavy foot traffic. It’s UV-stabilised to help retain its vibrant colour outdoors.

If you prefer a longer pile, try Buckshaw 30mm.

Easy to install

This versatile, lightweight grass can be installed over a range of surfaces with the right preparation. Blackburn 8mm also works well in commercial spaces such as exhibition areas or outdoor dining areas.

Installation

• You can join 2m and 4m rolls together.

• No sand infill is needed, but you’ll need a weed membrane to help keep weeds at bay. You can also use an underlay for extra comfort.

• When joining edges, make sure the pile runs in the same direction for a less visible join.

Maintenance

Your new no-mow lawn needs minimal maintenance to keep it looking good year-round. Give it a weekly brush with a stiff-bristled brush to remove dirt and debris, rake gently to lift the pile, and rinse away stubborn mess with a garden hose.

Do

• Clear away pet mess as soon as possible.

Don’t

• Place heavy objects such as furniture directly on the grass.

• Use barbecues or fire pits on artificial grass. Avoid glass-topped tables directly on the grass, as they can concentrate sunlight and damage the fibres.
