ForeverLawn selected as landscaping solution for The New American Home 2012

February 9, 2012 (Albuquerque, NM) — Premium artificial grass by ForeverLawn, the leading synthetic grass company, is one of many home innovations currently on display at The NewAmerican Home 2012 in Orlando, Fla.  The 4,181 square foot home is part of a project that is built every year in conjunction with the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) International Builders’ Show (IBS). This year’s home, designed by architect Phil Keane, showcases the latest advances in home design and sustainable building.

“The ForeverLawn turf looks incredible,” said Scott Redmon, President of Redmon Design Company. “In addition to providing a beautiful, green appearance, the artificial grass also contributes to the home’s efficiency since no water is required to maintain it.”

Another innovative feature of the home is the dog yard that is separate from the outdoor living space. Located on the opposite side of the home, the dog yard features K9Grass by ForeverLawn, the artificial grass designed specifically for dogs. Unlike the lush landscaping grass found in other areas of the home, K9Grass is engineered to provide solutions for dog owners. The short, dense blade structure of K9Grass simplifies the removal of solid pet waste, and the knitted backing provides instantaneous drainage of liquid waste. The no-infill design of K9Grass is critical for pet use, since infill materials in traditional artificial grass installations can trap pet waste and odors. K9Grass also has antimicrobial agents built into the blades, and offers enhanced durability to withstand heavy dog use.

“This is our second year partnering with The New American Home project, and we are honored to be a part of it,” said Jim Karmie of ForeverLawn. “The focus on innovation and sustainable building fits in perfectly with the ForeverLawn mission, and our feedback on this project has been overwhelmingly positive. We even met a sod farmer visiting from Montana who was driving by the home and stopped in to inquire about what type of grass we were using. He was amazed to learn it was artificial, and his entire family had to touch the grass for themselves.”

The New American Home 2012 is open for viewing by registered attendees of the 2012 International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Fla., from February 8-11.
