Today, schools and school districts are realizing that traditional grass is not a viable option for their landscape designs. The heavy foot traffic, intense training athletes undergo, consistent sunlight and more, make it very difficult to maintain the luxurious look of greenery desired. When you add SYNLawn San Antonio artificial grass and playground turf to your schools, you can enjoy several features and benefits not found in traditional sod or competing turf brands. No more maintenance, no more holes, no more mud, and no more fading.
The Most Technologically Advanced Artificial Turf In San Antonio, TX
Designing and installing a school landscape necessitates the highest level of safety for students and faculty as well as providing long-lasting amenities, low maintenance lawns and more. SYNLawn artificial turf offers more than 50 years of dedicated research and development that have led to the creation of cutting-edge technologies that provide schools with a landscape solution the offers unrivaled cleanliness, safety, durability, lush and vibrant aesthetic, and much more.
Super Yarn™ Technology
Super Yarn protects our children, the faculty of the school, and guests from bacteria that cause ailments like staph and helps them avoid static shock when they play on our surfaces. Super Yarn is the result of three molecularly bound components. First is the incredibly powerful antimicrobial by Sanitized® that eliminates up to 99% of bacteria.
Next, is DualChill IR reflective technology that reflects infrared light to prevent the accumulation of heat and prevent colors from fading. SYNLawn products provide the strongest warranty against reflective light. Finally, is a silver-based anti-static called StatBlock so SYNLawn landscapes won’t shock those who want to relax, practice their favorite sports, and more on our products.
Enviroloc+™ Turf Backing System
Our relationship with US soy farmers allows us to provide EnviroLoc+ and a wide range of other eco-friendly goods. We locally source materials such as soybean oil and sugar cane to make recyclable artificial grass that conserves water, reduces carbon emissions, and lowers the impact we have on landfills. EnviroLoc+ is our very own turf security system. This two-part polypropylene and polyester woven backing system made with soybean oil is an eco-friendly component that locks in turf fibers to prevent shedding, holes and tearing all year long. This means no more costly repairs to your school’s landscapes!
Heatblock™ Technology
School fields are in direct exposure to the sun all year long. This means that during the summer months traditional grass can become warm and uncomfortable to the touch. That’s where HeatBlock technology comes to the rescue. When the sun’s rays strike San Antonio artificial grass surfaces, HeatBlock functions as a thermal barrier, reducing surface temperatures by up to 20%. SYNLawn products with HeatBlock provide a softer, less abrasive finish on each grass blade.
Unmatched Safety Standards For Students And Faculty
Regardless of their age, as parents, we take our children’s safety very seriously. As a result, we ensure that school installations are completed with SYNLawn’s safest San Antonio artificial turf and playground turf. Whether we’re installing a playground, a practice field, a lawn for relaxing in the shade and more, SYNLawn synthetic grass for schools is both IPEMA certified and ADA compliant.
Our children can safely enjoy school landscapes without the worry of commonly occurring playground injuries and abrasions. In addition, SYNLawn products are wheelchair accessible. That means everyone is included.
Furthermore, you can’t rest assured knowing that SYNLawn is the first and only provider of Class A fire-rated synthetic turf. The most coveted fire rating available. Our products are designed to prevent the spread of fire and offer the strongest warranty against reflective light. As a result, your landscape will not dry out, or melt, and be the cause of unforeseen fires.

Frequently Asked Questions
A: SYNLawn engineers playground turf as a complete safety system, combining shock-attenuating padding, stable turf, and seam integrity. Our designs target critical fall-height protection, smooth wheelchair access, and reliable traction, helping reduce common play-area injuries while keeping surfaces consistent across swings, slides, and high-traffic edges.
A: We build SYNLawn playground grass for smooth mobility and predictable firmness, so wheelchairs, strollers, and aides can move comfortably. Consistent surface levels, secure transitions at borders, and properly compacted bases minimize ruts or soft spots, keeping routes to equipment, benches, and shade structures accessible throughout the school year.
A: San Antonio playground flooring from SYNLawn delivers a clean, level, and cohesive surface that resists displacement and rutting. Unlike loose fill, it doesn’t scatter, stick in shoes, or require frequent top-offs. Compared to poured surfaces, it helps reduce heat buildup, adds drainage flexibility, and allows targeted repairs without large closures.
A: Yes. We specify turf systems with heat-mitigating technologies and compatible infill strategies that help reflect infrared energy, reducing surface temperatures compared to typical synthetics. Paired with shade planning and proper subbase airflow, SYNLawn San Antonio playground turf systems stay more comfortable during recess and after-school programs, especially in peak Texas sun.
A: Our SYNLawn artificial turf integrates high-capacity drainage and open flow paths under the surface, so water evacuates quickly after storms or wash-downs. Custodial teams can rinse debris, spot-clean spills, and resume use quickly, minimizing downtime while keeping play areas fresh before the next bell or recess period.
A: Absolutely. We specify dense face weights, resilient yarns, and reinforced backing for repeated foot traffic, sharp turns, and field games. Strategic wear-zone upgrades—like additional padding at slide exits—help extend system life. The result is a dependable surface that looks great through semesters of play, field days, and events.
A: Maintenance is simple. Staff can blow or brush debris, rinse as needed, and schedule periodic fiber-lift grooming to keep the surface even. No mowing, fertilizing, or muddy patch repair. Planned inspections of seams, infill levels, and edges keep SYNLawn synthetic turf performing reliably across the academic calendar.
A: We pair SYNLawn San Antonio playground turf with antimicrobial-enhanced fibers and compatible infills, then design for rapid drainage that discourages odor and bacterial buildup. Routine rinsing and occasional neutralizing treatments keep surfaces fresh. The system resists tracking dirt into hallways, reducing mess near cafeterias, gym entries, and multipurpose rooms.
A: Yes. We offer school-focused options with robust fire-safety characteristics, UV-stable yarns, and durable backings. Materials are selected for long service life, and our products are manufactured PFAS-free. Combined with secure edging, bonded seams, and proper base design, the surface supports safety plans across courtyards and play pods.
A: We can. For early learners, we tune padding thickness and turf selection for softer play. For older students, we emphasize traction, wear resistance, and sport-friendly layouts. Line markings, hopscotch or activity graphics, and equipment-specific zones help schools tailor SYNLawn playground turf to curriculum and supervision needs.
