Astroturf is a type of artificial turf used to mimic grass. While not the same as grass, the cost of laying AstroTurf, especially in indoor stadiums, is much cheaper then laying natural turf and maintaining it.

What is difference between Grass Turf and Astro Turf?

When choosing the right surface for your lawn, sports field, or landscaping project, it's important to understand the key differences between grass turf (natural turf) and Astro Turf (synthetic turf). At The Turf Shed, we help customers make informed decisions based on their needs, budget, and maintenance preferences. Grass turf is real, living grass that is grown, harvested, and laid onto soil. It offers a natural look and feel, contributes to a cooler environment, and supports local biodiversity. Natural turf requires regular watering, mowing, and fertilising but delivers unmatched aesthetic and environmental benefits. Astro Turf, on the other hand, is a synthetic surface designed to mimic the appearance of real grass. It’s made from plastic fibres and backed with rubber or sand infill for durability. Astro Turf requires minimal maintenance, no watering, and can withstand heavy foot traffic, making it ideal for sports fields and high-use areas. While natural grass provides a lush, eco-friendly option, synthetic turf offers convenience and durability. Your choice depends on how the area will be used, how much time you're willing to spend on maintenance, and the look you want to achieve. Need help deciding? Contact The Turf Shed today.
