Will artificial grass warm up in the sun?

Artificial grass has many benefits, but unfortunately also one disadvantage compared to natural grass. Artificial grass will warm up in the sun. Natural grass has a cooling effect, but artificial grass does not. You can compare artificial grass with pavement which also retains the sun’s heat.

However, artificial grass is still very popular in countries with hot climates. The numerous advantages of artificial grass – such as the water savings – definitely make up for the small disadvantage of the higher temperature of the lawn.
