Retreat 40 - Artificial Turf and Landscaping Grass by SmartGrass

Retreat 40 is the longest, lushest, and softest of the SmartGrass Earth Series collection. This artificial grass is ideal for those who want a lush lawn to relax on. This turf has long, soft blades that give you a lush green lawn (without looking overgrown). It’s the perfect choice if aesthetics are the main priority and it is particularly well suited to small shady areas.

Forget Astro Turf, SmartGrass’ pile is constructed of four different natural coloured blades, including two brown layers of thatch, giving a natural, luxurious look and feel. It is a lighter shade of green than Oasis 35.

The SmartGrass Earth Series collection is the latest in landscaping technology, designed for Kiwis who demand the best artificial grass, without sacrificing performance, durability or longevity. It’s also 3x stronger than latex-backed synthetic grass and 5x faster draining. SmartGrass turf is made of UV stabilised polyethylene, a durable, recyclable plastic that is resistant to fading and stains.

5 Step Installation

Our 5 Step Installation

1. Excavation

The existing lawn, garden or stone is removed, typically to 70-100mm below the finished level. This leaves the hard ground below exposed.

2. Stabilisation & Drainage

The ground is compacted. A geocloth is laid which helps prevent undulation of the lawn as well as weeds. Drainage coil is laid in poor draining areas.

3. Base Construction

A timber or concrete edge is installed. The base is then built up to the finished level using crushed rock. This gets compacted and laser levelled.

4. Turf Installation

SmartGrass is laid on the crushed rock surface. This process involves cutting and joining the rolls of turf, then fastening it to the boxing and ground.

5. Infill & Grooming

The turf is groomed and a layer of sand is spread on top. The sand hides below the surface and helps the blades stand up.

Earth Series™

Earth Series™ is the latest evolution in synthetic turf technology, created by SmartGrass for a better planet. A new lighter, softer, but more durable backing has been created for the Earth Series™. This is made of UV stabilised polyethylene (the same material as the yarn), allowing it to be easily recycled. This backing is also fully permeable – almost like a fabric – which enables water, dog pee and moisture to drain straight through like a sieve. This allows you to enjoy your lawn all the time, without drainage issues and bad dog pee smells.

  • 5x Faster Drainage
  • 100% Recyclable
