Artificial turf is a surface manufactured from synthetic fibers made to look like natural grass. It is most often used in arenas for sports that were originally or are normally played on grass. However, it is now being used on residential lawns and commercial applications as well. The main reason is maintenance — artificial turf resists heavy use, such as in sports, and requires no irrigation or trimming. Domed, covered, and partially covered stadiums may require artificial turf because of the difficulty of getting grass enough sunlight to stay healthy.

 

Artificial turf first gained substantial attention when it was used in the 1960s when it was used in the newly constructed Astrodome. The specific product used was called AstroTurf and this term since then has often been used colloquially to refer to any artificial turf.
