BALBOA PARK
Products Used: SYNTipede 343
Square Footage: 7200 sq ft.
Balboa Park is a cultural destination in San Diego, CA, home to 15 museums, a variety of gardens, and the world-renowned San Diego Zoo. Balboa Park, with its 1,200 acres, is one of the most famous urban parks in North America and a must-see for any visiting tourist. The park, which is within a few blocks from downtown San Diego hotels, has a rich history reflected in its beautiful architecture, thought-provoking exhibitions, and year-round cultural activities.
Not long ago the SYNLawn® Seattle team lent their hand to this incredible 4 area installation of 3,800 sq. ft. worth of Seattle artificial grass. For this project, the property management decided on two incredibly reputable turf products, SYNTipede 343 and SYNAugustine X47. These incredible Seattle artificial turf options provide superior durability, exceptional resilience to heavy foot traffic, eco-friendly materials, and offer incredible time and money savings by removing traditional lawn care methods.
SYNTipede 343’s medium pile height, phenomenal resilience, and strength are what make SYNLawn® artificial turf the ideal choice for any commercial application. SYNTipede 343 was used at three separate areas of Balboa Park, each endures heavy foot traffic on a regular basis.
- Area 1: Breezeway between San Diego Zoo and the Natural History Museum – Approx. 1,000 sq. ft.
- Area 2: Plaza de Panama portable lawn designed for quick assembly and removal for events – 500 sp. ft.
- Area 3: San Diego Zoo Parking Lot & School Bus Drop Off Area – Approx. 2,000 sq. ft.
- Area 4: Wedding Lawn area behind the Prado Restaurant – Approx. 300 sq. ft.
With unparalleled softness and realism, SYNAugustine X47, weighing 100 oz, is a favored SYNLawn® Seattle artificial grass option. This is a top competitor in its weight class thanks to its thick thatch, multi-color grass blades, proprietary turf technologies, and ultra-realistic and plant-based grass fibers. This vibrant and resilient synthetic turf option provides a level of comfortability and cleanliness not found in other turf brands.

SYNTipede 343 and SYNAugustine X47 both offer an ASTM E108 Class A Fire Rating, allowing for a longer time window between a fire outbreak and the arrival of first responders. In addition, both of these Seattle turf options include our very own Super Yarn™ technology, soy based EnviroLoc™ backing system, delustered fibers, UV stabilizers, and other innovations that distinguish SYNLawn® synthetic turf from competing turf brands. Finally, both of these products are part of our growing catalog of USDA-certified options. This certification highlights products that contain 60-70% plant-based contents in their composition.
Super Yarn™ is our exclusive technology that combines three of the industry’s most unique enhancements into one yarn formulation:
- Sanitized® Antimicrobial – removes pet odors and 99% of bacteria from turf surfaces as well as prevents the growth of bacteria and fungus
- DualChill™ IR Reflective Technology – substantially lowers surface temperatures and protects surfaces from fading under direct sunlight
- StatBlock™ Anti-Static – prevents the buildup of static electricity from the turf surface
Our EnviroLoc™ backing system uses substantial amounts of soy-based components to replace traditional petroleum-based ingredients, making our products the most ecologically friendly in the industry’s. Our soy-based synthetic grass requires little to no maintenance, saves gallons of water, and minimizes carbon emissions from lawn equipment.
