ProGreen Synthetic Grass™ strives to make a positive environmental impact whenever and wherever possible. We have artificial grasses available that can be completely recycled after their 20+/- year life cycle. Most importantly, by the very nature of artificial grass, we are helping our customers to reduce their overall water consumption.

Every year we sell thousands of pounds of products made from recycled materials. We also sweat the small stuff; in the office we choose recycled paper and once the front is printed we use the blank, backside for in-office use. We also communicate electronically whenever possible to avoid printing unnecessary documents. Our crews also map out the most direct and efficient routes while doing installations to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

As a society we’re wasting one of our most prized resources by heavily watering our lawns, playgrounds and athletic fields. For example, half of a household's warm weather water usage goes towards watering the lawn. According to the Irvine Ranch Water District in California the installation of a 750 square foot synthetic lawn can save approximately 22,000 gallons of water per year. ProGreen Synthetic Grass™ gives you the look and feel of grass without wasting water. ProGreen Synthetic Grass™ also eliminates the need for gas powered mowers, trimmers and aerators. By installing ProGreen Synthetic Grass™ overall dependence on oil is reduced and our watersheds are spared from spilt fuel while accidentally trying to fill up our lawn mowers and trimmers. Additionally, ProGreen Synthetic Grass™ doesn’t require fertilizers or toxic anti-weed chemicals which are harmful to our environment.

According to the Association of Synthetic Grass Installers, the natural lawn industry represents the 5th largest "crop" that is grown in America, larger than wheat, soy and other staple grains!*
