SWG Systems
At Southwest Greens of Austin, we’re raising the bar on artificial grass in Austin with innovative setups that make synthetic grass more livable, durable, and suitable for pets. Our HydroChill® system can drop surface temperatures by up to 50°F whenever it’s wet, while our K9 Sand infill keeps your artificial turf for pets fresh by draining moisture through the backing and cutting odors naturally.
SMART. EASY. COOL.
We’re proud to offer and install turf that saves families and businesses both effort and expenses, allowing you to enjoy your space. With our innovative HydroChill® heat-fighting infill, we’ve conquered summertime heat in a smart and easy way. A simple addition to the turf’s infill delivers an average cooling range of 30–50°F and works automatically when hydrated by any water including rain, irrigation, or dew.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Just like sweat cools your skin, HydroChill® draws on moisture to absorb and dissipate heat from the turf surface. As sun hits the grass fibers, moisture transforms to vapor, taking the heat away from the turf and leaving behind a noticeably cooler activity surface or backyard lounge spot.
- Activates with natural or artificial moisture source
- Works with most Southwest Greens infilled lawn systems
- Won’t affect your turf’s lifespan or warranty
- Withstands sun damage — reapply every 2 years
IDEAL USAGE CONDITIONS FOR HYDROCHILL®
Surface temperature depends on more than air temperature: various climate factors like sun angle, cloudiness, time of day, and wind all matter. HydroChill® functions optimally when the sun is strongest — typically midday in summer — so your artificial grass stays pleasant when you spend the most time outside.
BETTER PET TURF WITH K9 SAND
If you’re in the market for artificial grass for pets, our new K9 Sand infill is a revolutionary option. Synthetic grass allows for easy cleanup, and our precise installation guarantees excellent flow-through. K9 Sand’s drainage system drains fluids effectively through the turf backing, reducing odors, puddles, and cleanup headaches.
- Safe, with no plastics and heavy metals
- Provides natural odor control — additive-free
- Extracted from ocean sand, purified and then shipped
- Ideal for pet-friendly zones
Whether your dog’s a bouncy furball or a disciplined older dog, K9 Sand keeps your turf looking fresh without harsh chemicals.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND K9 SAND
K9 Sand has key benefits that make it a top-tier pet infill for pet turf. K9 Sand minimizes pet odors by blocking ammonia reactions in urine. This infill functions purely as-is. It is harvested naturally, cleaned off, and sent to your door.
