Lush Pet
Lush Pet is a balanced-performance artificial turf designed for pet-friendly environments, offering comfortable surface feel, basic visual appearance, and moderate durability for typical residential use.
With a 1.0625-inch pile height and 56 oz face weight, this turf provides a balanced combination of surface structure and comfort. Its drainage rate of 400 in/hr provides high drainage capacity suitable for pet applications, positioning it within its category based on its structural and material characteristics. Performance in landscape applications is comparatively lower.
Lush Pet by TigerTurf is an artificial grass product with 1.0625-inch pile height and 56 oz/yd² face weight, featuring polyethylene yarn with C, W-Blade, Lens (Oval)-shaped blades and 17 oz/yd² polypropylene backing.

Structural Performance
Lush Pet provides basic durability with some limitations under heavier use. Polyethylene fibers offer good durability with moderate resistance to wear and deformation, while thick yarn fibers enhance durability and maintain structural integrity under repeated use, optimal pile height balances flexibility and structural stability, maximizing long-term durability.
High drainage efficiently moves water through the surface layer.

Safety
Lush Pet may support accessible use, but no formal ADA compliance documentation is available. High drainage helps maintain a dry and stable surface, supporting accessibility under wet conditions.
Lush Pet by TigerTurf is prone to heat buildup and may reach higher surface temperatures. Lighter yarn colors reflect more sunlight, reducing heat buildup, while moderate pile height allows airflow and reduces heat retention. No infrared-reflective technology is specified, which may increase heat retention.

Comfort / Experience
Lush Pet offers a comfortable and slightly soft surface feel. Moderate pile height (1.0625") allows balanced fiber movement, contributing to a more comfortable surface. However, higher yarn denier (14000) increases fiber stiffness, limiting softness and cushioning. Very high turf density (70.36) significantly limits fiber flexibility, resulting in a firm and less cushioned surface.
Lush Pet by TigerTurf offers a natural-looking surface with moderate visual variation. Multiple thatch tones enhance depth and closely mimic the layered look of natural grass, while moderate pile height provides a balanced and natural-looking surface profile and a combination of blade shapes creates natural texture variation, enhancing realism. Very high turf density produces an overly uniform surface, limiting natural visual variation.

Maitenance Scores
Lush Pet provides moderate maintenance requirements with manageable cleaning effort. Very good drainage supports consistent cleaning performance, while polyethylene fibers reduce debris adhesion and support easier cleaning. Very high turf density significantly limits accessibility, making maintenance more difficult.
Lush Pet by TigerTurf provides moderate debris resistance with some accumulation over time. Moderate pile height supports good debris movement with manageable buildup, while very good drainage supports consistent debris removal. Very dense turf significantly limits debris movement and retention.
Lush Pet offers strong resistance to flattening with good fiber recovery over time. Thicker yarn fibers improve resilience and reduce flattening under use, while moderate pile height maintains good resistance to matting.

Warranty
SGW offers tiered warranties - 15-year for landscape turf and 3–8 years for putting greens-covering material defects, UV degradation, and abnormal fiber breakdown under normal use, but like most turf warranties, it is limited to material protection only, excluding installation issues, misuse, environmental damage, matting from traffic, and heat damage from window reflection, with claims typically restricted to repair, replacement, or material credit rather than full project coverage.

Installation Efficiency
Lush Pet provides excellent backing stability, maintaining structural integrity and consistent performance after installation. High-quality primary backing materials provide strong dimensional stability and resistance to deformation, while high-performance secondary backing materials enhance structural integrity and improve fiber lock, high tuft bind strength securely anchors fibers, reducing pull-out and improving stability.
Lush Pet by TigerTurf allows precise seam alignment with minimal visibility when installed correctly. Tight stitch gauge allows precise alignment and improves seam invisibility, while stable backing minimizes movement and improves seam consistency, moderate pile height allows good seam blending.
Lush Pet is easy to cut and handle, allowing precise and efficient installation. Lower backing weight reduces resistance during cutting and improves handling, while moderate pile height allows controlled and accurate cutting, moderate face weight allows efficient cutting.
