The product is not deemed to be faulty if a crease is visible and the product will de-crease on a daily basis. Creases will fall out within 3 months of the supply or installation. The following guidelines should be followed in any issues are encountered. Dark and Light Patches. The cause of this is simply that the yarn (grass fibres) have been more compressed in some areas than others. This happens because when the grass is rolled onto a cardboard core tube and pressure is applied in a specific area. Solution: Air the grass in warm weather. Manipulate the pile with a brush. If the compression is excessive use a mechanical power brush to lift the pile. Creases. This can be caused by a number of factors such as the grass being rolled tightly on a roll, the fibres being compressed. Additionally, transit and storage of artificial grass can be challenging so this may cause creases to occur.
Solution: Sunshine and time! However, most issues can be resolved by inspecting the grass in advance and following the advice below. The product becomes supple in warm temperatures. Ideally always inspect the grass before installation. Unroll and expose to the sun before laying – you will the notice crease can lift within minutes in warm sunshine.

Lastly turn the grass over exposing the latex backing to the sun, you can stretch it by hand and you will see how much more flexible the product has become.
Lines. On occasions a distinctive straight line can appear through the grass. If this has occurred, it has been caused by a measuring wheel on our cutting table ruffling the yarn on the grass.

Solution: Again, the solution is exposure to warmth and manipulation of the fibres. A power brush will always be the best method of re-invigorating the yarn.
