Abstract

An artificial grass turf comprises roll sections (8) of artificial turf which have a primary backing fabric (10) comprising synthetic grass ribbons (16) extending outwards therefrom, and manufactured with one of a loop portion (20) and a hook portion (30) of a hook and loop fastening system integral with an underside of the primary backing fabric (10). An underlying roll section attachment means (26) has a top surface (28) including the other of the hook portion (30) and loop portion (20) of the hook and loop fastening system, for engagement with the underside of the primary backing fabric (10). This system eliminates the need for sewing synthetic turf roll sections together, or the need for the use of adhesives to fasten the field surface to the solid substrate, permitting easy installation of the artificial grass surface and simplified disassembly if required.
