How to clean the artificial turf?

Cleaning artificial turf is a critical step in ensuring its long-term beauty and functionality. Different types of stains require different treatments, which include liquid stains such as milk ice cream, and solid stains such as fallen leaves, and fungus. The cleaning methods for these different situations are explained in detail below.

Liquid stains such as milk ice cream

Treat quickly

Immediately soak up as much liquid as possible with a clean absorbent towel or paper towel to prevent penetration into the turf substrate.

Rinse with water

Thoroughly rinse the stained area with clean water, rinsing away as much of the remaining stain as possible.

Cleaning with detergent

If the stain is stubborn, use a diluted solution of detergent in water to gently scrub the area and then rinse it off with water.

Thorough drying

Let the turf dry naturally to avoid residual moisture triggering bacterial growth.

Solid stains such as fallen leaves

Manual Removal

Gently remove fallen leaves and other solid debris from the contaminated area by hand or broom.

Vacuuming

Use a vacuum cleaner or a special duster for artificial turf to thoroughly remove the dust and debris around the stain.

Wipe with a damp cloth

Gently wipe the stained area with a damp cloth or sponge to remove residual stains and dirt.

Cleaning with detergent

If the stain is difficult to remove, gently rub the area with a diluted aqueous solution of detergent, then rinse well with water.

Drying

Let the turf dry naturally or gently pat it dry with an absorbent towel.

Special stains such as fungus

Manual Removal

First gently remove fungi or organic debris from the contaminated area by hand or broom.

Rinse with water

Thoroughly rinse the contaminated area with water to remove as much fungal residue as possible.

Disinfecting Treatment

Using an appropriate disinfectant, such as a diluted bleach solution in water, gently wipe the contaminated area to eliminate the fungus and its spores.

Thorough Drying

Allow the turf to dry naturally to ensure there is no residual moisture to prevent the fungus from growing again.

Regardless of the type of stain encountered, it is important to address it as soon as possible to avoid damage to your artificial turf and maintain its long-term beauty and functionality. Also, regular cleaning and maintenance are important measures to keep your artificial turf in good condition.
