Imagine being able to practice your golf swing or putt on a beautifully manicured green at any time of day you choose. With SmartGrass, that could be in your own backyard. Skip the green fees and the hassle of booking practice time. With a year-round perfect lawn, you get the ideal surface to practice your swing, plus you can ditch the mower, forget the fertiliser, and save on your water bill!
If you’re an avid golfer, having your own artificial golf turf at home that stays perfect without any maintenance is your secret weapon to becoming the best golfer you can be.
SmartGrass isn’t the typical low-quality astroturf. Our premium products, including Active 12 and Putting 16, with their tight, performance-driven weave, are engineered to support consistent ball roll. Using different grass blade designs – including bi-colour greens to make it look like a real lawn — SmartGrass saves you all the hard work of maintaining a backyard putting green, and will look stunning in any-sized yard.
With a smooth, weather-proof surface that delivers reliable ball roll and speed, you can step up your golf game in no time, from the comfort of your own home!
Rain or shine, all year round, SmartGrass will look as good as it did the day it was laid down.
Kiss your mower goodbye, because SmartGrass will look picture perfect with little more than running a stiff broom over it.
When we say it looks and feels like ordinary grass, we mean it. SmartGrass is developed to be as close to the real thing as possible.
SmartGrass can handle your worst golfing days totally divot-free! It’ll even keep up with active kids and even the dogs that love to dig.
Whether you’re practising your putting or have an active family running around your backyard all day, SmartGrass is the safe option. It’s also fully recyclable for those conscious of sustainability.
These homeowners, residing on the Clearwater Golf Course, had an underutilised, ordinary lawn that served merely as an aesthetic feature. With a passion for golf and a desire to enhance their putting skills, they opted for the SmartGrass treatment and transformed their backyard with a high-quality putting green, perfectly complementing their golf course property.
Your existing lawn is dug out and replaced with a layer of free draining compacted rock. SmartGrass is then laid over this permeable base, and dressed with a layer of very fine sand.
The sand that is spread on top of the grass has two jobs:
SmartGrass is installed on a base of compacted rock – similar to what is underneath pavers. This is free draining (so the dog pee disappears), and because it is strong, the base won’t undulate overtime (unlike a real lawn).
SmartGrass isn’t just New Zealand’s best artificial grass for dogs; it’s a fantastic option for the whole family! Reclaim your weekends by not having to mow, practice your golf swing without the divots, know that your kids are safe to roll around and play till they’re exhausted, and add value to your property.
Our team is happy to show you what’s possible. We can transform your concrete areas as easily as we can replace existing lawn, so you aren’t limited to only using grassed spaces!

Our Earth Series range is the only artificial grass in New Zealand fully suitable for dogs, because of its drainage performance. Exclusively supplied by SmartGrass, it is extremely realistic, extremely durable and is also fully recyclable.
SmartGrass has fantastic ‘vertical drainage’. This means that water doesn’t run off it horizontally, it drains straight through it.
The backing of our Earth Series products is fully permeable, so water drains through like a sieve. The base under the turf also drains quickly as it is constructed of a free-draining rock.
The safety of your dog is the most important thing to us, so not only are all of our SmartGrass options safe for dogs, but our installers ensure that all work is done with the utmost safety and professionalism with your pets in mind, giving you complete confidence.
No – Dog pee contains a strong concentration of nitrogen, which can kill real grass (causing ‘burnt’ patches). SmartGrass is made of polyethylene, which is chemically intert and unaffected by dog pee.
We recommend picking up dog poo daily, then spot spraying our lawn sanitiser spray. This has an enzyme which breaks down any bits you’ve missed and keeps the lawn clean.
Runny dog poo can be easily picked up using paper towels. The lawn can be hosed off if required, then spot sprayed with our enzyme spray.
We create a strong, stable base from compacted rock and install your SmartGrass with a layer of silica sand infill that gives maximum drainage, and also makes it impossible for dogs to dig into.
While it is very unlikely that your lawn will smell because of SmartGrass’ fantastic drainage properties, occasionally there may be an unpleasant smell if you have dogs toileting on it regularly and there has been a lack of rain. The urea present in dog pee can lead to a smell as it can be influenced by multiple factors such as diet or medications. To help combat the odour, we suggest hosing the lawn often to flush away accumulated dog pee. Depending on the frequency of dog use or the number of dogs, more frequent rinsing may be necessary. Additionally, using our sanitiser spray can help sanitise and clean the lawn which will contribute to a fresher outdoor environment.
No – Even dogs notorious for digging can’t! The sand layer on top prevents the dogs from being able to dig through, and the grass is fastened around the edges so cannot be ripped up.
Dogs tend to dig because of smells in the soil; SmartGrass is installed on top of a rock base (not soil), so there’s little incentive for them to dig!
No – SmartGrass for pets has the same durable blade technology that we used on our sports fields (that get heavy use from sports players daily for up to 20 years).
