Artificial Grass Quantity Calculator

Please check.

Artificial turf has a grain (direction]. To avoid color differences and create a natural-looking lawn, the entire width must be laid in the same direction.
Drainage is key. Check to ensure there are no areas where water pools on the floor, and for outdoor use, make sure to check that the product is perforated with drainage holes.
To prevent lifting at the seams (joints], you must use specialized joint tape and adhesive, and attach them carefully to avoid getting grass blades caught so that the seams are not noticeable.
For rooftops or concrete floors, bonding mainly around the edges is sufficient, but in areas with severe winds, consider bonding the entire surface or using heavy filler materials.
Due to the nature of sales in roll units, significant waste occurs. The more complex the site structure, the safer it is to generously set a markup rate of around 10–15%.

Artificial Turf Quantity Calculator, Roll Count and Installation Area Calculation Guide

I want to lay green artificial grass on my rooftop or in my yard. How many meters should I order? Artificial grass is typically produced in rolls with a width of 2 meters. If you do not calculate how many widths you need to lay it according to the shape of the ground, you may run out of material or have too much left over. This calculator accurately determines the total length (in meters] and estimated area required based on the installation area and grass width.

Artificial Turf Quantity Calculation Formula

First, determine the required width for filling the floor, then calculate the total length.

2. Calculation of total required length (m]

Required length (m] = (Construction length × Width] × (1 + Markup rate / 100]

Detailed Guide to Calculator Input Items

Please verify the actual measurement data from the construction site and the turf specifications to ensure accurate material calculations.

1. Construction area width and length

Enter the width and length of the entire surface where the grass will be laid. It is visually better to set the direction where the grass grain appears longer to the vertical direction.

2. Grass Roll Width

Enter the fixed width of the product you wish to purchase. Domestic standards are mostly 2,000mm (2m], and small landscaping products may be 1,000mm.

3. Allowance

This is the allowance for border trimming loss and errors. We recommend setting it to 5% for simple rectangles and 10–15% for complex shapes.

Types of Artificial Turf and Characteristics by Application

type	characteristic	Main uses
20mm artificial-grass.table.less	20~40mm length, natural grass texture	Yard, terrace, commercial interior
25mm ~ 30mm	High density, excellent durability and resilience	Futsal court, golf mat, exercise facilities
35mm ~ 40mm	6~10mm length, easy to clean and maintain	Exhibition, veranda, shoe rack

Expert Know-how and Checklists

This is a key point for a clean finish and durability.

Matching the grain of the grass
Artificial turf lies in a consistent direction. It must be laid across the entire width in the same direction to ensure a natural look without color variations. Please be careful, as laying even a single row in the opposite direction will result in a significant color difference.
Fixing method based on floor condition
For concrete floors, use urethane adhesive to bond primarily along the edges and seams. For soil floors, the standard procedure is to lay down a weed control mat first to prevent weeds and then secure it using U-shaped fixing pins.
Precise seam (joint] work
To prevent the grass blades from getting on the seam tape or glue, you must gently lift the grass from both sides and carefully join them together so that the connection point is not visible.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ]

Q. Does artificial turf drain well, too?
A. Yes, landscaping artificial turf has drainage holes (perforations] on the surface, ensuring efficient drainage. However, the surface itself must have a proper drainage slope to prevent water from pooling.

Q. What tools are needed for DIY installation?
A. You will need a utility knife (replace the blade frequently], a measuring tape, specialized adhesive or joint tape, and urethane glue or U-pins for fastening.

Q. Doesn't the grass burn or melt in the hot summer?
A. High-quality products are heat-treated and will not melt at typical summer temperatures. However, caution is required as the glass may deform due to high temperatures if reflected light is concentrated in one spot.
