ARTIFICIAL TURF HAVING FIBERS WITH DIFFERENT MELTING POINTS
An artificial turf system is for installation over a receiving surface. The artificial turf system comprises a flexible sheet member to be laid over the receiving surface via its lower surface. It comprises first yarns having a first melting point; second yarns, distinct from the first yarns and having a second melting point; and third yarns, having a third melting point, with all yarns extending upwardly from the upper surface of the sheet member. The third melting point is lower than the first and second melting point. The artificial turf system undergoes a heat treatment at a temperature higher that the third melting point prior to installation through which third yarns at least partially fuse with part of one of the first yarns and the second yarns. Further described is a method of manufacturing the artificial turf system.
