Eco-Friendly TPE Infill Granule For Artificial Grass UV-Resistant Recyclable Non-toxic
What is TPE Granule?
Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), also known as artificial rubber, combines the superior properties of traditional cross-linked vulcanized rubber (such as high elasticity, aging resistance, and oil resistance) with the processing convenience and versatility characteristics of ordinary plastics. It can be manufactured using various processing methods, including injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding. Its eco-friendly, non-toxic nature, coupled with a comfortable tactile feel and exquisite aesthetic appeal—which lends itself to more creative product designs—has established TPE as the latest material of choice for replacing traditional rubber.

Packing & Delivery
Why is infill needed for artificial turf?
The surface of artificial turf will be smoother than that of natural turf, especially when it is raining. Filling with a proper amount of infill granule at this time can provide greater friction and provide a foot feel closer to that of natural turf, greatly improving field performance.
Filling granules and quartz sand are needed to compact artificial grass and stabilize the grass. Under normal circumstances, quartz sand is chosen as the lower layer and infill granules as the upper layer.
Because artificial turf does not have any soil, in the event of a collision or a fall, the body will be relatively stressed and very prone to injury. Adding an appropriate amount of highly elastic filler particles can effectively simulate the feeling of soil and prevent injuries when the body collides with the field.
