OUR Pittsburgh, PA ARTIFICIAL TURF INSTALLATION PROCESS
THE MASTER OF INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY
Southwest Greens Pittsburgh knows how to bring sincerely great designs to life. Since 1996, we’ve established a reputation for crafting quality golf greens, catching the attention of over two dozen top PGA Tour pros who have had Southwest Greens turf installed at their homes.
Architects and contractors rely on companies that consistently deliver excellent installations, and those partnerships are just as important to us as those with homeowners. Built in the USA by Shaw Industries, a Berkshire Hathaway company, and installed using systems proven for performance, you will have the satisfaction and backing of a global leader while working with local, value-oriented craftsmen.
Our leadership exceeds premium craftsmanship; Shaw Industries’ dedicated R&D specialists have developed innovations such as the Bolt™ fiber and HydroChill® evaporative cooling technology – a robust combination that ensures excellence and luxury. Southwest Greens Pittsburgh, a wholly-owned subsidiary, is pleased to continually improve and enhance the work we already do.

THE PERFECT FINISHED PRODUCT
When we claim we are the best in the business, we mean it. We don’t believe in run-of-the-mill putting green installations. Southwest Greens Pittsburgh has perfected the art and science of artificial grass installation. We have crafted and installed over 6,000 golf greens worldwide as backyard putting greens, luxurious golf courses, and more.
Here’s a quick glance at how our artificial grass and putting green installation process works:
A base of crushed aggregate, which, unlike concrete, can be moistened and molded to form protection against breaks and undulations.
Next, we install a minimum of a 1/4 inch cushion pad that helps ball roll and shot absorption, then comes our 1 1/8 inch state-of-the-art polypropylene turf material that is used to synthesize the vibrant green color, softness, and playability of real grass.
The artificial grass is then stuffed with a blend of fine-coated silica sand to give it the touch and feel of real grass.
Finally, the tops are rolled to recreate the effect of a true bent grass green. Options include the installation of the first and second cuts fringe, sand traps, bunkers, fairways, and roughs.
