Local childcare centre chooses no-water synthetic lawn
Top Kidz Childcare Centre in Engadine has installed an 80 square metre no-water,
no-mow synthetic lawn that looks like natural grass and is completely safe for
children.
The Eco Logical Lawn, supplied by Pro-tech Corp, has proven to be a popular
landscaping alternative for pre-schools and childcare centres with several
centres installing the lawn in NSW.
As per safety regulations pertaining to landscaping around children's play
equipment, the lawn has been certified as 'soft-fall' which means that it is
soft and impact absorbing, reducing the chance of injuries if children fall from
play equipment.
Vanessa Henderson, owner of Top Kidz said that before the installation of the
Eco Logical lawn, the children never played in the front yard of the childcare
centre.
"The front of the centre was unusable because it was under the trees where there
was no grass growing, just dirt.
"Since the synthetic lawn has been installed, the area has become usable and the
kids love it.
"We have also had parents telling us how good the lawn looks.
"It feels soft and the best thing is we don't have to worry about maintaining
it.
"With the current water restrictions, it really helps that the lawn doesn't need
to be watered," Vanessa said.
Pro-tech Eco Logical lawns have been installed in many pre-schools and schools
throughout Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra.
The Eco Logical synthetic lawn system was created by Pro-tech Corp Pty Ltd and
is based on a European concept using the process of fibrillation to split the
fibres and give the lawn the grass-like look and feel.
Pro-tech also installs no-maintenance synthetic putting greens, with one
recently installed in the yard of Australian golf champion Nick O'Hearn. Both
the synthetic lawns and putting greens are available nationwide and Pro-tech can
be contacted on 1300 554 334.
