REDUCING URINE ODOR AND BACTERIA GROWTH
One of the biggest concerns for pet owners when it comes to synthetic turf is the smell of urine and bacterial growth. With K9 Sand, you can say goodbye to those worries. Our one-of-a-kind infill solution diminishes the smell of urine by stopping the breakdown of ammonia, which is responsible for the unpleasant odor (Figure 1).

K9 Sand prevents the growth of bacteria thanks to its anti-microbial properties. The best part? K9 Sand achieves all of this without any chemicals — it's simply sourced from the ocean, washed, and sent to your door, making it 100% natural.
SUPERIOR DRAINAGE FOR A CLEAN AND TIDY TURF
We know the significance of maintaining a well-kept turf area for your pets. That's why our K9 Pet Turf is equipped with our exclusive Flow-Through Drainage System, which offers superior drainage for rain, water, and pet urine (Figure 2).

The microscopic voids in the Flow-Through Drainage System deter liquid from collecting on top of the backing, ensuring a tidy turf surface 24/7. Say goodbye to pooled water and unpleasant odors with K9 Pet Turf and its superior drainage capabilities.
NON-TOXIC AND PET-SAFE
It's important that the infill in your artificial turf is non-toxic in case of your pet accidentally eats it. With our pet-friendly artificial turf infill, you can have confidence knowing that it's non-toxic, containing only pet-friendly ingredients. In fact, K9 Sand is made of calcium carbonate, which is commonly found in dietary supplements for both pets and humans alike. Your pet's health is our main focus, and K9 Sand meets the strictest safety standards for pet-friendly artificial turf.
COOL AND COMFORTABLE FOR YOUR PETS
Artificial turf for pets can get hot, especially during the warm season. But with K9 Sand, you don't have to worry about your pet's paws getting too hot. Each particle of K9 Sand contains tiny holes that trap water, which is then released as the surface temperature increases, providing cooling. As a result, K9 Sand helps keep the turf's temperature approximately 20 degrees cooler than standard turf infill, creating a cool and comfortable surface for your pets to enjoy.
