Any company that distributes, sells or installs artificial grass and synthetic turf systems and their components is responsible for compliance with state and federal laws, regardless of where the regulated metals, compounds and/or chemicals originated. ASGi recommends that each company in the artificial turf and synthetic grass supply chain – from grass surfaces component manufacturers to consumable job materials suppliers and product brand owners, their distributors and installers – develop a quality assurance system that addresses specific federal and state restrictions on the use of heavy metals and other chemicals and integrates these requirements into existing quality assurance and control (QA/QC) programs. What due diligence steps can your company take to ensure the quality of your materials and supplies are compliant with federal and state laws?
