Unique Hollow blade design by GST is unlike anything on the market. The hollow vein in the center of the grass blades makes up not only for the truly realistic look of the grass, but also supports its ability to keep the temperature of the lawn stable and cool in hot climates. In plants, leaf surfaces are dotted with stomata (openings or holes) bordered by guard cells that open and close the pore. Transpiration, a process that cools plants, occurs through the stomatal apertures. Transpiration serves to evaporatively cool grass as the escaping water vapor carries away heat energy. Hollow blade technology mimics the same process, which helps to keep moisture inside stems longer and, therefore, lessens the temperature of a lawn.
We produce monofilament turf fibers in dozens of different shapes. Each of our blade shapes serves a different purpose and creates a different effect for your lawn. Contact us to explore which option is best for you.
