What is DUAL FLOW Turf Drainage?
This proprietary, hybrid backing system exclusive to Ideal Turf provides unmatched drainage capacity. Water and pet urine flow through our integrated hybrid backing at rates ten times higher than other turf backings. Your turf will provide 100% drainage with zero absorption!
The Microbe-Safe™ antimicrobial additives that are infused into the backing during the manufacturing process eliminate the need for deodorizers and ammonia absorbing additives. Because the backing itself is antimicrobial when pet urine passes through the fully permeable backing or one of the hole-punched drainage holes it inhibits the buildup of odors and bacteria.
How Does a Hybrid Backing System Work?
Ideal Turf’s hybrid artificial grass drainage technology improves the drainage efficiency of synthetic turf by combining the 100% permeable and hole-punched backing. We call it our “DUAL FLOW” backing system and it drains water at an industry-leading 2,000+ inches per hour!
The holes punched in the turf’s backing allow solids to penetrate the turf better. This is particularly advantageous with pet turf because any solid waste that’s missed when you clean the turf will make its way to the drainage holes in the turf backing.
DUAL FLOW vs. Hole-Punched Drainage
Most artificial grass products on the market have hole-punch backings, which means pet urine has to make its way to the turf’s drainage holes before passing through the turf. It is not uncommon for liquids, including urine, to rest in the areas between these drainage holes which results in a terrible odor. With an edge-to-edge drainage system, dog urine does not need to find a hole to drain; it just drains right through.
