Velo Turf Launches Fully Permeable Woven Artificial Grass, Helping Contractors Address Pet Odors and Drainage Issues Worldwide

Sep 14, 2026

The latex-free manufacturing process accelerates drainage rates while delivering sustainable, low-VOC solutions for global residential and sports contractors.

Melbourne, Australia, September 14, 2026 -- Velo Turf, a premier supplier of next-generation synthetic turf operating under Emu Health Australia Pty Ltd., today announced the global expansion of its advanced woven turf portfolio. Engineered to resolve chronic drainage bottlenecks and odor retention caused by traditional latex or SBR backings, the new 100 percent permeable series enables instant water and pet urine run-off. By eliminating heavy glue bases, Velo Turf provides international contractors and distributors with a lighter, highly durable, and recyclable alternative that drastically reduces maintenance costs for end-users across the United States, Europe, and the Middle East.

Key Facts & Technical Specifications

  • Drainage Efficiency: The open-mesh woven backing provides 100 percent surface permeability, eliminating water pooling and preventing bacterial odor buildup in pet and residential zones.

  • Global Compliance: Fully certified under RoHS, stringent SVHC (255 substances) testing, fire resistance, and advanced UV resistance benchmarks to meet international building codes.

  • Manufacturing Scale: Operates a 10,000-square-meter automated manufacturing base yielding an annual production capacity exceeding 400,000 square meters.

  • Localized Distribution: Maintains over 25,000 square meters of on-demand local stock in Melbourne, Australia, ensuring rapid sample dispatch and fast-tracked project supply for B2B partners.

Core Technology and Material Innovations

Unlike conventional tufted grass that relies on thick polyurethane or latex backings, Velo Turf engineers its products using a proprietary mechanical weaving process that binds the grass yarn directly into the base net. This integrated manufacturing method eliminates the need for heavy adhesives, resulting in a lighter, more flexible product that resists cracking in freezing conditions. The single-material construction not only enhances dimensional stability but also creates a fully recyclable, eco-friendly product lifecycle.

Comprehensive Product Portfolio

Serving over 50 major distribution enterprises across more than 10 countries—including the U.S., Ireland, the UAE, and the Philippines—the company's expanded matrix encompasses:

  • Residential & Landscaping: Showcasing the flagship Premium Residential woven artificial grass, the lineup features High-density woven artificial grass optimized for a soft foot-feel and natural aesthetics on balconies and rooftops.

  • Pet & Family Safe: The Velo PetFlow Pet-Friendly woven artificial grass utilizes a Fully Permeable woven artificial grass design to instantly drain fluids, while the Glue-Free woven artificial grass ensures a Low-VOC woven artificial grass environment ideal for childcare centers and backyards.

  • Sports & Commercial: Offering the professional-grade Sports Hybrid woven artificial grass and the versatile Velo Mix Hybrid woven artificial grass for commercial putting greens, multi-use training facilities, and school grounds.

  • Extreme Climate Adaptation: Developed to withstand harsh Australian climates, the UV-Resistant woven artificial grass pairs with High-temperature resistant woven artificial grass to prevent fiber degradation and fading in extreme sunbelt regions.

Global Supply Chain and B2B Procurement

Targeting global turf wholesalers, real estate developers, and sports facility contractors, Velo Turf integrates intelligent inventory management into its supply chain. The company accommodates flexible wholesale arrangements, offering tiered pricing, custom project quotes, and comprehensive installation accessories. Demonstrating a commitment to sustainable B2B partnerships, Velo Turf allows distributors to customize fiber shapes, Dtex, density, and pile heights to meet specific regional aesthetic and functional requirements.

Management Quotes

"Traditional artificial grass backings trap moisture and pet odors, turning backyards into high-maintenance liabilities," said Mitchell Wang, Technical Manager at Velo Turf. "By completely removing the latex backing and transitioning to a woven structure, we have eliminated these drainage issues at the source. Our partners receive a plug-and-play turf solution that actively protects their profit margins by minimizing post-installation callbacks and maximizing customer satisfaction."

Industry Background and Future Plans

Driven by stringent global environmental regulations and rising consumer demand for pet-safe outdoor living, the sustainable landscaping market is experiencing unprecedented expansion. Velo Turf's automated, glue-free manufacturing capabilities directly support this transition by offering scalable, standardized, and recyclable ground cover. Looking ahead, the company plans to deepen its investment in single-material recycling technologies and further expand its overseas distributor network, providing localized design support and rapid delivery to global partners.
