The invention relates to an artificial turf comprising: a carrier (308); an artificial turf fiber (501) incorporated into the carrier such that a first portion of the artificial turf fiber (506) protrudes to a back side of the carrier, a second portion of the artificial turf fiber (302) protrudes to a front side of the carrier, and a third portion of the artificial turf fiber (504) is inside the carrier; and a polyurethane backing (210) formed on the back side of the carrier, characterized in that a phase material is added in the polyurethane backing (210) and/or in at least one layer formed over the carrier 308. The artificial turf may further comprise a heat conductive layer formed on the back side of the polyurethane backing, the heat conductive layer comprising graphite, graphene and or a combination thereof.

A decorative grass having at least one non-linear side edge that provides the decorative grass with a contoured configuration is disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of producing and using the decorative grass having a contoured configuration.

Packaging materials are disclosed, along with packages formed therefrom and methods for forming the packages.

A synthetic grass implant/marker that serves as a surface mounted visual marker for a feature or device located nearby or underground and has all the features and advantages of such a synthetic grass implant, and that additionally includes an externally mounted RFID and coil antenna mounting device having a cavity in which is mounted an RFID device such as an RFID tag or chip that can programmed with information concerning the feature or device it is marking, and which information can be obtained by utilizing an RFID reader to obtain the stored information from the implant/marker, as well as a coil antenna for the RFID device. Legs on the externally mounted RFID and coil antenna mounting device interconnect with holes located in a top surface of the implant/marker to mate the two pieces together.

Provided is an artificial turf, including a base cloth, artificial turf yarns tufted on the base cloth, and a bonding layer applied on the base cloth. The bonding layer is provided with water permeable holes formed by blowing air onto the base cloth through an air blowing device. The artificial turf has excellent water permeability. Moreover, there is no need to pierce an adhesive side of the base cloth during production, thereby avoiding damage to the structure of the artificial turf by piercing. This effectively prevents the artificial turf yarns from loosening and falling off and prolongs the service life of the artificial turf.

An underlayment layer is configured to support an artificial turf assembly. The underlayment layer comprises plurality of panels, each panel comprising a core with a top side and a bottom side. The top side has a plurality of top projections. The top projections form top side water drainage channels. The panels have edges, with the edges of one panel abutting the edges of adjacent panels, thereby forming a drainage path between adjacent panels. The panel edges have vertical support extensions that extend into the drainage paths between adjacent panels. The vertical support extensions have an upper surface for supporting an artificial turf assembly overlying the turf underlayment layer, and the panel edges having one or more complementary indentations corresponding to vertical support extensions of adjacent panels. When the panels move toward each other, thereby closing drainage paths between adjacent panels, the vertical support extensions are received in the corresponding indentations.
