GEORGE BUSINESS NEWS - Ever wished you had the perfect lawn at your home or sport club all year round? With water restrictions and the price of water this remains a distant dream for many, but ArtGrass (Artificial Grass) in George has the answer.

They can ensure that you have a beautiful lawn without having to worry about the water bill.

ArtGrass George co-owner Gerhard McDonald says there is increasing demand for artificial grass, which is one of the reasons why the George branch moved to new premises in November last year. The company is now situated at 104 Mitchell Street, c/o Market Street.

Part of a franchise, the George branch started four years ago, but in 2018 Gerhard and his father Theo bought it over, turning it into a true family business. Sub-franchises have been established in Oudtshoorn, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay.

Made in China, the high-quality grass comes with a health certificate.

Though made of recycled plastic, it absorbs water and ensures minimal injury during falls. It is available in different colours and is ideal for sport fields, schools, events venues, pool sides, landscaping, balconies and walkways.

It is pet friendly and requires zero maintenance. It is also popular with golfers who practise their putting skills at home. ArtGrass will install the grass at the premises of the customer's choice.

ArtGrass currently sells its 8mm profile on special for R199 per square metre. Customers receive an 8-year guarantee on top profiles and the average life span is 20 years.
