Skip. Artificial turf commonly uses PFAS-based coatings; brand provides no composition disclosure.
Artificial turf products frequently contain PFAS in water-resistant and stain-resistant treatments. This listing includes no material transparency or PFAS testing data from the brand, making risk assessment impossible.

The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
This product is polyethylene or polypropylene base fabric with an undisclosed stain and water-resistant coating. Most artificial turf in this price range uses polyolefins because they are cheap, durable, and accept coatings easily. The coating composition is the critical unknown: water-resistant finishes on synthetic turf commonly rely on fluorocarbon chemistry (PFAS-based), which persists in the environment and bioaccumulates. Without disclosure, you cannot verify whether this turf uses legacy PFAS, newer fluorine-free alternatives, or a mixture.
The brand's record and disclosure
Artificial Grass Liquidators has not publicly disclosed material safety data, certifications, or composition details for this product. No independent testing, third-party certifications (such as ISO, SDS availability, or REACH compliance statements), or brand-level environmental commitments are on record. The brand's silence on PFAS and flame-retardant use is typical of budget liquidation retailers and reflects minimal transparency. This opacity means you rely on inferences from material category risk, not verified product claims.
How it compares in its category
At $2.09 per square foot, this turf is at the lower end of the artificial landscaping market. Budget alternatives rarely disclose coating chemistry or pursue PFAS-free or flame-retardant-free certification; premium brands (e.g., some European or specialty suppliers) sometimes provide SDS or third-party testing. Compared to natural grass, artificial turf eliminates pesticide and fertilizer exposure but trades those for chemical off-gassing and potential microplastic shedding over decades. This product sits in a transparency gap common to bulk commodity turf.
If you buy it
Install in well-ventilated outdoor areas only; do not use indoors or in enclosed structures where off-gassing concentrates. Rinse the turf with water before laying and allow 48-72 hours of air exposure to reduce volatile off-gassing. Avoid high-temperature applications (near grills, heat lamps) because polyethylene and polypropylene can degrade and emit fumes above 80-90°C. Plan replacement every 7-10 years as coatings degrade; dispose of old turf through municipal waste or recycling programs that accept synthetics, never burn it.
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.”
Flame retardants (if present)
Polyolefin turf products sometimes incorporate brominated or chlorinated flame retardants to meet fire codes. No test data is available for this specific product, but the price point and lack of disclosure suggest no premium flame-retardant-free formulation. Risk is low in outdoor use but increases with age as coatings degrade.
Volatile organic compounds (VOC) and off-gassing
Artificial turf with synthetic coatings commonly off-gases during installation and early use. Studies document toluene, hexane, and other solvents in turf off-gas profiles. Duration and intensity vary by coating and ambient temperature; ventilation mitigates exposure significantly.
Microplastic shedding
Heavy metals in coating pigments or additives
No test results for lead, cadmium, or antimony in this brand's turf are publicly available. Pigments and UV stabilizers in polyolefin blends can contain heavy metals, but direct contact risk during normal outdoor use is low. Risk increases if turf is ingested by small children or pets.
Undisclosed water-resistant coating composition (likely PFAS)
The stain and water-resistant finish is not disclosed. Fluorocarbon (PFAS-based) coatings dominate low-cost artificial turf for performance reasons. Without SDS or third-party testing, assume PFAS presence is possible; this is graded separately but contributes to overall product risk tier.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% 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.
