Envirofill: The Ultimate Premium infill for Artificial Turf
Envirofill® is our non-toxic, pet and child safe turf infill solution that’s designed to prevent bacterial growth and odours. It’s the only synthetic turf infill with Microban® antimicrobial protection, which works continuously to help inhibit the growth of bacteria, mould, and mildew that can cause odours.
Why artificial turf with Envirofill is good for your Dog.
We know you’ve been there. A big rainstorm just passed and your dog is sitting expectantly by the door, eager to get outside and play. But if you let them out now, you’re certain to have a big, muddy mess to clean up later, and that’s not something you have time for.
With an artificial turf system there won’t be any mud — meaning that, rain or shine, you’re not going to see muddy paw prints inside.
To avoid a stinky yard as a dog owner, drainage is everything. Not all artificial turf or infills are optimised for drainage. That can mean a major odour issue for your yard, as well as making it a breeding ground for bacteria.
Envirofill for turf was specifically designed for homes and other spaces used by pets. While helping to prevent the growth of bacteria, mould and mildew, Envirofill’s Microban technology reduces ammonia odour from urine by up to 99%. While Envirofill with Microban reduces pet odours, for the best results, you might want to occasionally use an enzyme cleaner on your lawn.
With Envirofill as your turf system’s infill product, you can feel confident your pup is playing in a space that’s free of harmful toxins. Envirofill’s Microban (antimicrobial product protection) uses a Zinc-based technology to help fight bacteria without a need for noxious chemicals. Because Envirofill turf infill is nontoxic, it’s also safe if accidentally ingested, making it an ideal infill choice for artificial turf play areas frequented by kids and dogs alike.
Okay, this one is maybe more so a benefit to you than your pet. But we all know how unsightly a yard can look when one area has very visibly become the “pee corner” or your pet’s favourite spot to dig. An artificial turf system using Envirofill won’t leave grass stains and will maintain its lush look, no matter the season and no matter how many games of fetch are played on it. For green spaces that are frequented by multiple dogs, that’s an especially big perk!

It’s rounded shape also prevents compaction, ensuring better drainage.

Things to keep in mind when choosing an artificial turf infill
When it comes to your home, your family, and your pets, you’re going to have different needs to consider when picking an infill.
PET-FRIENDLY
Our pawed loved ones are like family, so of course, you want the best care for them. Choosing an infill that’s non toxic benefits both you and them — today, tomorrow, and in the future. Pets also love to roll around and ingest random things when they’re outside, so having an infill that you know is safe will keep them happy and give you peace of mind.
KIDDOS
All parents want safe, happy kids, and your lawn should support that. Choosing an infill that’s both clean and safe makes playtime one less thing you have to worry about.
ENVIRONMENTALLY-CONSCIOUS
Nowadays, this is a must for a lot of people. Luckily, there are infill options out there that do the job and take care of the environment too.
Disadvantages of Other Infill for Artificial Grass
Traditional infills can trap heat, retain moisture and encourage bacteria growth, leading to a less hygienic, hotter and harder to maintain lawn.
RESTRICTED DRAINAGE
If your lawn doesn’t have proper drainage, it can result in a whole host of problems.
Some artificial turf companies have old school turf with hole backings. Raw sand, especially when wet, can clog turf’s drainage holes in the artificial turf backing so water has nowhere to go, leaving you with a watery, soggy mess.
IT’S MESSY
You know the feeling when you’ve been at the beach covered in sand and even with the utmost caution, it still manages to make it into your car, house, and everywhere else. It’s annoying! Well, raw sand infill isn’t any different. It gets into your clothes and spreads everywhere and with young kids, that is one big, time consuming mess.
WEED GROWTH
The last thing you want to see when you look out your window to your beautifully groomed artificial turf lawn are weeds. Sand infill is prone to allowing seeds to germinate so in the spring and summer months, you could potentially see some unwanted greens sticking out of your turf fibers.
NOT CLEANLY AND RETAINS UNDESIRABLE FLUIDS
With kids and pets, cleanliness is key. Raw sand infill absorbs urine so if there’s an accident, your turf lawn takes the hit. And you don’t want to have to worry about that.
