Get ready for the new season of Terraces and Gardens
As soon as the good weather approaches, enjoying an aperitif outside becomes a priority for many. The countdown to the arrival of the next season has begun and so that you have the perfect setting, we help you prepare the outdoor spaces with tailor-made solutions for every need.
Artificial grass installation system
The choice of the type of system to use to achieve the best result in the installation of artificial grass depends on the size of the area to be covered. For large sports and recreational areas and garden areas in general, the highest efficiency is obtained with the use of our BP-390 2-component polyurethane Adhesive and Bonding Band. Our adhesive offers excellent resistance to weathering and humidity and its yield is 500 g / m2. After 24 hours of application, the product is fully cured and reaches its final grip strength after 72 hours.
Know the step by step for the installation with this system::
1. Prepare the product, mix the two components until the color and texture are uniforrm.
2. Raise the sides of the grass rolls leaving a separation of about 30cms and place the band between the two pieces.
3. Apply the adhesive on the band with the help of a spatula.
4. Join the 2 pieces and press placing some weight on top to ensure proper adhesion and firmness.
For medium-sized areas, very common in restaurants, attics, terraces and gardens, the recommendation is to use, in addition to the bonding strip, our special MS Mono-component adhesive for artificial grass. Its super elastic formula, sticks on wet and has excellent resistance to the outside. Its installation is very easy and practical. After placing the bonding band, just apply a bead of the adhesive in a zig-zag pattern on the bonding band and spread with the help of a spatula. Next, join the 2 pieces and press, placing some weight on top to ensure proper adhesion.
Already for small areas, such as terraces, uses in decoration and perimeter areas, there is no need to use the joining band. The adhesive is applied directly to the surface, without forgetting to clean the surface well beforehand. After its application, the grass must be pressing, placing some weight on it to make it firm.
