At SYNLawn Orange County, our team utilizes our exclusive EnviroLoc+ Backing System, which is perhaps the greenest and cleanest turf backing system available in Orange County, CA. For over 50 years, SYNLawn® has been at the forefront of the artificial grass industry, dedicated to researching and developing new technologies and eco-friendly features. A key focus for us is the creation of environmentally sustainable products that contribute positively to the environment, enhancing landscapes for residential and commercial clients.
Our EnviroLoc+™ backing system is a multi-layered woven polyester and polyethylene system and plays a crucial role as your turf fiber security system, helping to ensure the longevity of turf fibers and extending the product’s lifespan. This environmentally friendly innovation is manufactured in the United States, utilizing resources obtained from our soy farmer partners. EnviroLoc+ not only helps conserve a significant amount of water throughout the year but also facilitates excellent drainage, allowing our Orange County artificial grass to be used almost immediately after exposure to liquid. Additionally, EnviroLoc+ contributes to reducing petroleum usage in the manufacturing process by incorporating eco-friendly materials such as sugar cane and soybean oil!
When creating Orange County artificial grass, the yarn is first placed into the backing fabric (a procedure known as tufting), and it is then “locked” in place by applying a polymer coating to the back of the fabric. Up to 60% of the petroleum-based polymers in our exclusive EnviroLoc+ backing system are replaced with biobased polymers made from sustainable resources like soybean oil, making SYNLawn products eligible for USDA certification. A certification you cannot find anywhere else in our industry!
Finally, when installing synthetic turf, soil health is often disregarded. Fortunately, EnviroLoc+ addresses this issue by facilitating drainage at a rate of up to 1,200 inches per hour with our SuperDrain+ technology. This is 40 times higher than the largest recorded rainfall in the U.S. This rapid drainage helps ensure that surfaces become quickly available for use after contact with water or other liquids while also guaranteeing that the soil continues to receive the essential nutrients it needs to maintain its health.
An Additional Coat of Sanitized® Keeps Your Backing System Clean
Algae and fungus are well-known health dangers that thrive in warm and humid environments, which can endanger local wildlife and contribute to hazardous runoff water. Since algae reduce natural ocean oxygen, this can result in dead zones and polluted water for animals. Fungi, like pollen and pet dander, are common and can cause respiratory allergies in various settings.
Thanks to the effectiveness of the Sanitized® antibacterial, SYNLawn Orange County artificial turf is resistant to fungi and algae growth. This effective barrier not only extends the life of our turf but also reduces allergies in the surrounding environment.
EnviroLoc+™ Promotes Long-Lasting Beauty
Turf incorporating EnviroLoc+ not only experiences reduced fiber loss but also adheres to a more environmentally responsible approach to synthetic turf. In working with U.S. soy farmers, we take pride in offering some of the most eco-friendly products available today. This partnership enables us to locally source materials such as sugar cane and soybean oil, helping to ensure the quality and sustainability of our products. By manufacturing both Orange County synthetic grass and EnviroLoc+ in-house, we help ensure that our products meet environmental standards, avoiding common issues associated with outsourcing. If the underside of your artificial turf lacks a green hue, it is not a product of SYNLawn, and it does not include EnviroLoc+.
