Deceptively realistic, these closely replicate the playing characteristics of natural greens to offer a constant-use practice facility. Recently, we completed the construction of the prestigious Albufeira 20-hole mini-golf park visitor attraction at the Ondamar hotel for the Acititur Group, Lisbon based company, aimed at novices, families and seasoned golfers alike. This facility is open to the general public and not just hotel guests and is a hugely popular attraction for visitors to the Algarve.
Yet the golf market is just one area of specialism nowadays, as Grasshopper Greens offers a wide range of synthetic grass products for specific surfaces - tennis courts, soccer pitches and croquet lawns. The business has also broadened to meet demand for a range of domestic applications: lawns, patios, roof terraces, verandas, pool surrounds, even safe play areas for kids. Their most recent innovation is high-quality artificial hedge - either a box-type hedge or a tealeaf-style bush – which provides an immaculate, no-maintenance leafy border for any garden or patio.
Company director Martin Edwards explains: “In the Algarve environment, where lawns aren’t naturally sustainable, where water conservation is a growing issue and water bills are rising steeply, many homeowners are looking at the long-term savings offered by synthetic lawns. Our lawns bring a realistic, lush and beautifully manicured aspect to all kinds of outdoor areas, requiring minimal maintenance - and no watering!”
Grasshopper Greens uses the finest-quality products from Dutch manufacturers, offering the most advanced fibre technology. Martin underlines this necessity: “All too often I’ve seen the problems that occur with cheap products on the market, usually from the Far East. I completely avoid these, and the products I offer carry a 10-year warrranty plus a 5-year installation guarantee.”
The company prides itself in being the longest-established, and one of the only specialist synthetic grass companies in Portugal with a professionally-trained team of installers, now with over 13 years’ experience. They offer a complete design & installation service or can also sell synthetic lawn direct ‘off-the-roll’.
Martin concludes: “Grasshopper Greens takes absolute pride in delivering a first-class service: the best products, the highest quality workmanship – and an evergreen investment!”
