Global Syn-Turf ALLGREEN All Natural 75 Field Green/Olive Green Indoor/Outdoor Turf 15 ft.
Lower concern, but synthetic turf composition opacity leaves moderate uncertainty.
Global Syn-Turf ALLGREEN is synthetic turf with no public PFAS disclosure or testing data available. Standard artificial turf products typically use polyethylene or polypropylene fibers without PFAS, but some formulations may include performance coatings or backing treatments.

The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
Global Syn-Turf ALLGREEN is polyethylene or polypropylene fiber turf on a fabric or rubber backing, typical of indoor/outdoor artificial grass. The fibers themselves are generally stable under normal use, but the backing adhesives, infill materials (sand, rubber crumb, or other), and any coatings applied during manufacturing can leach chemicals over time, especially when exposed to heat, UV, or foot traffic. 'All Natural' labeling on this product likely refers to the appearance or infill composition rather than absence of synthetic chemicals in the fibers themselves.
The brand's record and disclosure
Act Global has not publicly disclosed detailed chemical composition, certifications (e.g., Greenguard, NSF), or third-party testing for this turf product. No major recalls or safety controversies are on public record for this specific SKU. The brand's silence on PFAS and other chemical additives is consistent with much of the synthetic turf industry, which historically has not been transparent about processing chemicals or flame retardants in backing materials.
How it compares in its category
Synthetic turf broadly carries similar material risks; this product is not notably safer or more disclosed than mid-market competitors. Some premium brands (e.g., certain European manufacturers) now offer PFOA/PFOS-free certifications or third-party lab reports; Act Global does not publicly advertise these. Natural grass or certified recycled-content turf alternatives may pose fewer chemical unknowns, though they carry their own durability and maintenance trade-offs.
If you buy it
Install and use in well-ventilated areas; avoid prolonged direct sunlight or high heat on infill, which can accelerate off-gassing and chemical migration. Inspect backing and infill regularly for degradation, discoloration, or odor; replace infill every 5-8 years or per manufacturer guidance. Keep away from heavy chemical exposure (pesticides, solvents). Damp-clean with plain water or mild soap; do not steam-clean or use high-temperature pressure washing, as heat can mobilize chemicals from adhesives and backing.
Beyond PFAS: other things we checked
Established hazard classes for this product type, assessed from public information. These never change the PFAS grade; a Likely flag caps the Verdict at “Buy with care.”
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from backing adhesives and infill binders
Synthetic turf backing often uses polyurethane or latex adhesives that can off-gas formaldehyde or other VOCs, especially in the first weeks after installation or when heated. Act Global has not disclosed binder chemistry for this product.
Rubber crumb or infill leachates
If infill includes recycled rubber crumb (common in synthetic turf), zinc, PAHs, or other contaminants from tire waste may leach under prolonged moisture or heat exposure. Product labeling does not specify infill composition.
Heavy metals in pigments or UV stabilizers
No documented reports of lead, cadmium, or other heavy metals in this specific turf product. Polyethylene and polypropylene fibers typically do not concentrate these; however, third-party testing is absent.
Microplastic shedding during use and cleanup
Synthetic turf fibers degrade and shed microplastics over time, particularly from foot traffic and weathering. This is an inherent property of PE/PP turf and not brand-specific, but notable for households with children or pets in direct contact.
Coating or finish degradation over time
UV exposure and moisture can degrade the fiber coating and backing integrity after 8-15 years, potentially releasing adhesive residues or infill particles. Act Global does not publish durability or degradation data for this product.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 60% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
