Why the Right Infill Matters for Artificial Grass for Dogs
Artificial grass for dogs is beloved by pet owners throughout the Greater Toronto Area and across Canada for a variety of reasons.

For the best pet turf experience, experts recommend using high-quality infill during artificial grass installation and in the future for the best upkeep.

Read on to learn more about the benefits of artificial grass infill for your pet turf.
Cool Your Pet Turf
The summer months in southern Ontario notoriously bring the heat. Long stretches of hot weather can cause outdoor surfaces to become scalding and unbearable to touch with extended exposure to sunlight. It’s important that dogs and other pets’ paws are protected from these temperatures to prevent burns and infections. To stop overheating, artificial grass in Toronto, installed by Echoing Green, is equipped with UV Protection that reflects intense light from the sun’s rays to maintain a manageable surface temperature. Our installation teams also use high-quality TºCool infill, which leverages a leading water retention formula that cools the surface of artificial grass landscaping, so people, pets, and children can graze the surface without risking discomfort or burns.
Minimize Odours
As fun as having your own pet dog is, they are known to leave unpleasant odours behind them and on the lawn. Artificial grass for dogs is often used as potty pads for dogs. As urine and organic waste are left behind, pet owners must be confident that bacteria and odours are effectively eliminated. The rounded edges of the TºCool infill used during artificial grass installation facilitate the drainage of liquids. As the synthetic turf is washed with water and disinfectants, the odour-causing bacteria can flow away through the permeable backing of the turf easily into the ground. Equipped with BacShield technology, the exceptional infill also prevents odours for a fresh outdoor environment. This not only benefits our furry friends by providing a clean and odour-free environment, but it also ensures that pet owners can enjoy their outdoor spaces without worrying about unpleasant smells.
Durability & Security
One of the main functions of infill during the installation of artificial grass in Toronto is stability and longevity. The specially engineered beads are distributed at the base of the synthetic turf to keep the backing down and hold the individual fibres upright. As dogs roll, play, and attempt to dig through the landscaping, artificial grass and high-quality infill prevent the turf from shifting, lifting, wrinkling, or ripping, enabling long-lasting use.
