Sierra Pro
Sierra Pro is a balanced-performance artificial turf designed for pet-friendly environments, offering exceptional softness, natural-looking appearance, and moderate durability for typical residential use.
With a 1.75-inch pile height and 75 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.
Sierra Pro by TigerTurf is an artificial grass product with 1.75-inch pile height and 75 oz/yd² face weight, featuring polyethylene yarn with Omega-shaped blades and 27 oz/yd² polypropylene and polyester backing.
The Universal Turf Rating (UTR) is a standardized 0–10 score calculated from normalized specifications - including face weight, pile height, yarn denier, and drainage - to provide an objective comparison of synthetic turf performance.

Structural Performance
Sierra Pro provides basic durability with some limitations under heavier use. Polyethylene fibers offer good durability with moderate resistance to wear and deformation, while higher yarn denier improves fiber strength and resistance to wear under regular use, reinforced blade profiles improve structural rigidity and support fiber recovery under repeated use.
High drainage efficiently moves water through the surface layer.

Safety
Sierra Pro 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. Long pile height reduces stability and may affect mobility.
Sierra Pro by TigerTurf is prone to heat buildup and may reach higher surface temperatures. Lighter yarn colors reflect more sunlight, reducing heat buildup, while polyethylene fibers reduce heat retention compared to other materials. No infrared-reflective technology is specified, which may increase heat retention.

Comfort / Experience
Sierra Pro provides a soft and cushioned surface feel. Slightly longer pile height (1.75") increases softness, though added height begins to reduce surface stability.
Sierra Pro 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 optimal pile height creates natural depth and proportion, closely resembling real grass. Uniform blade shape may limit texture variation, making the surface appear more artificial.

Maitenance Scores
Sierra Pro requires regular maintenance to manage debris and surface cleanliness. Longer pile height increases debris retention, requiring more frequent cleaning, while very high turf density significantly limits accessibility, making maintenance more difficult. This is partially offset by structured blade profiles that resist debris accumulation and support easier cleaning, while very good drainage supports consistent cleaning performance.
Sierra Pro by TigerTurf provides moderate debris resistance with some accumulation over time. Structured blade profiles promote debris shedding and reduce buildup, while very good drainage supports consistent debris removal. High turf density traps debris and may increases buildup.
Sierra Pro offers strong resistance to flattening with good fiber recovery over time. Structured blade profiles improve resistance to flattening and support strong fiber recovery.

Installation Efficiency
Sierra Pro 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.
Sierra Pro 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.
Sierra Pro offers good cutting performance with manageable effort. Flexible backing materials improve cutting precision and reduce resistance.
