As summer 2018 continues there seems to be no end in sight to the rising temperatures under the July sun. Yesterday it hit a sweltering 110 degrees at our corporate office and had most Austinites avoiding the outdoors to stay inside. Unfortunately for homeowners, landscapes are exposed to the extreme heat and beating sun for the entire day which can result in damage and dead patches. To combat the dryness of their yards, most homeowners use a significantly larger quantity of water throughout the summer months- an average of 729 gallons of water per day for outdoor applications. As much as 80%-90% of this is dedicated to lawns, gardens, and plants.

Turfscape artificial grass can completely eliminate this unnecessary water usage to help homeowners be more environmentally efficient and save money as well. By engineering a solution to the problem, Turfscape provides more than just a luxurious ground covering; Turfscape offers a smarter and greener landscape option that saves on average 55 gallons of water per square foot per year. 

Turfscape is passionate not only for providing exceptional products that meaningfully enrich lives but also in finding ways to impact our world community in a positive way. Water is one of the most precious natural resources available and one many Americans heavily utilize for landscaping, but many people around the world do not have access to clean water. Turfscape believes that helping save water will mean helping save the world which is why a portion of each Turfscape purchase is donated to Water.org to help end the global water crisis.
