SYNLawn® Scores Four 2020 Awards from The Synthetic Turf Council

Dalton, Ga., Oct. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SYNLawn®, the largest manufacturer and unrivaled innovator of artificial grass in North America, is the proud recipient of four industry awards from the Synthetic Turf Council (STC) recognizing outstanding achievements. The company won in the residential, commercial, sports and innovator categories, an increase from two awards last year including the 2019 Landscape Installation of the Year at Suze Orman's vacation home.

"We are honored to be recognized by the Synthetic Turf Council," said George Neagle, executive vice president at SYNLawn. "We aim to continue to lead the way in the synthetic turf industry. The exceptional installations by our winning distributors, plus our innovative new line of products made with Super Yarn™ technology, showcase the talents of our distributors and fabricators across the country."

Winners of this year's prestigious awards include:

  • Sports Field Project of the Year - Under 75K Sqft. – Madison Square Boys & Girls Club installed by SYNLawn New York: This 6,000 square foot multi-purpose field was masterfully built on the rooftop of the Madison Boys & Girls Club in Harlem. The SYNLawn addition ensures a safe, clean, and healthy place for the Sugar Hill community to play softball, football, soccer and more for generations to come. The turf provides enhanced safety with a Class A Fire-rating that meets New York City building code requirements and adds peace of mind in durability with a 15-year warranty.
  • Landscape Project of the Year - Commercial – Barkwood Dog Park installed by SYNLawn Northeast Ohio: This pup playland in Beachwood provides more than 22,000 square feet and is the first full-sized artificial grass dog park in Northeastern Ohio. The park features turf covered play structures specifically designed for the more than 400 dogs registered to use the space. In a truly collaborative effort, Wilkins and team worked side by side with twenty city workers to assist with the install to meet budget constraints. Barkwood Park will no doubt inspire other communities to follow suit in creating beautiful, functional and sustainable dog parks.
  • Innovator Award – As SYNLawn's premier 2020 line of products, Super Yarn™ is the result of many years of research and testing in a first-ever yarn package. It combines three technologies including Sanitized® antimicrobial, StatBlock™ anti-static and DualChill® IR reflective – resulting in a groundbreaking artificial grass fiber that significantly improves the durability and safety of the turf.

  • Landscape Project of the Year - Residential – Wynn Residence installed by SYNLawn of Los Angeles: This residential project was part of a massive mansion renovation working with famed designer and top landscape architect, Bob Truskowski. Two unique products were used to provide fire-resistance rating requirements, introduce a high/low effect and have visual contrast. The finished result is a 12,000 square foot crescent-shaped design custom made to fit into a space stretching 172 feet wide by 72 feet deep.

The teams at SYNLawn Minnesota and SYNLawn South Dakota were also recognized as a Runner Up for CrossFit Games in Madison, WI.
