REDUCING URINE ODOR AND BACTERIA GROWTH

A major concern for pet owners when it comes to fake grass is the smell of urine and the growth of bacteria. With K9 Sand, you can say goodbye to those worries. Our exclusive infill solution minimizes the smell of urine by preventing the breakdown of ammonia, which is responsible for the unpleasant odor (Figure 1).

K9 Sand inhibits the growth of bacteria thanks to its bacteria-killing properties. The great thing? K9 Sand achieves all of this without any artificial coatings — it's simply sourced from the ocean, cleaned, and shipped to your door, making it 100% natural.

 

SUPERIOR DRAINAGE FOR A CLEAN AND TIDY TURF

We understand the value of maintaining a well-kept turf area for your pets. That's why our K9 Pet Turf is equipped with our exclusive patented drainage system, which offers superior drainage for rain, water, and urine from pets (Figure 2).

The microscopic voids in the Flow-Through Drainage System deter liquid from collecting on top of the backing, ensuring a tidy turf surface 24/7. Say goodbye to stagnant water and unpleasant odors with K9 Pet Turf and its superior drainage capabilities.

 

NON-TOXIC AND PET-SAFE

It's vital that the infill in your artificial turf is safe for pets in case of accidental ingestion. With our pet-friendly artificial turf infill, you can have confidence knowing that it's safe for pets, containing only pet-friendly ingredients. In fact, K9 Sand is made of a natural mineral found in many dietary supplements, which is commonly found in dietary supplements for both pets and humans alike. Your pet's health is our main priority, and K9 Sand meets the highest standards for pet-friendly artificial turf.

 

COOL AND COMFORTABLE FOR YOUR PETS

Artificial turf for pets can become hot, especially during the warm season. But with K9 Sand, you don't have to worry about your pet's paws and feet getting too hot. Each grain of K9 Sand contains tiny holes that trap water, which is then dispersed as the surface temperature gets hotter, providing evaporative. As a result, K9 Sand helps keep the turf's temperature approximately 20°F cooler than standard turf infill, creating a cool and comfortable surface for your pets to enjoy.
