Why can't ordinary glue be used to stick artificial lawns?

Artificial turf, as an emerging thing, is loved by the public not only because of its bright appearance and durable performance, but also because it has characteristics that natural grass cannot match. Artificial turf has been seen in many fields, whether it is outdoor football fields or indoor carpet decorations. However, the effect of using artificial turf is not only related to its own quality, but also to many small details in the paving process, such as the paving technique, the quality of the connecting tape, and the selection of glue. Today, I will mainly share with you the selection of glue. Why can't ordinary glue be used to bond artificial lawns?

Glue plays a crucial role in the entire process of artificial turf paving and is an essential step in the paving process, with significant importance. So this is also why we should choose professional artificial turf glue for bonding instead of regular glue. Ordinary glue can also be used for bonding, but it is not suitable for long-term use in the field. Firstly, the adhesion of ordinary glue is not enough, which is prone to problems such as peeling, rotten bottom, and warped edges. The second reason is that ordinary glue generally does not have good waterproof properties. The vast majority of artificial turf fields in our country are outdoors, and long-term exposure to sunlight and rain can easily cause the gaps between artificial lawns to peel off, greatly reducing the service life of artificial turf fields.

And our usual artificial turf adhesive is usually a supporting product of environmentally friendly imported artificial turf systems, which has stronger adhesion and waterproof properties, and has characteristics that ordinary adhesives do not have (firmness, long lifespan, and pit pressing). Whether it is rainy or hot weather, it will not cause degumming. At present, it is also the preferred adhesive for laying artificial lawns. Some engineering companies, in order to save costs, purchase relatively inexpensive ordinary glue for the installation of artificial lawns. This is precisely why it poses hidden dangers to the construction quality and later site maintenance of artificial lawns. If degumming occurs in the later stage, the entire venue will face a situation of renovation or repaving, which will also cause irreversible economic losses to the buyer. So the correct approach is to use specialized adhesive for artificial turf. As it is a targeted formula adhesive, the price will be higher, but it can play a good fixing and bonding role in the process of laying artificial turf. Using the correct glue is the way to kill two birds with one stone.
