Abstract
An artificial turf system includes a turf assembly having a turf backing and artificial grass blades extending from the turf backing to form an artificial turf layer. Infill material is placed in between the blades of artificial grass. The infill material includes a plurality of wood particles, each particle defining a length dimension greater than a width or a thickness dimension. The length and one of the width or thickness dimensions defines an aspect ratio within a range of 1:2 to 10:1. In certain embodiments, the infill wood particles have a generally rounded edge profile along at least the length dimension. Each particle length dimension is oriented generally parallel to a grain structure of each particle. The plurality of particles maintains a water absorptive property that permits water to be retained by the particle and released over time to disperse heat from the infill material.
