Where these two actually differ

  • We flag VOC off-gassing from polyurethane or latex adhesive, Polypropylene UV degradation and microplastic shedding, Backing adhesive failure and fiber separation and Infill contamination (if rubber granules used) on the AstroTurf and not on the Tarkett.
  • We flag Microplastic shedding from fiber degradation, Uncharacterized backing coatings and water-resistant additives and Volatile organic compound (VOC) off-gassing during installation or heat exposure on the Tarkett and not on the AstroTurf.
  • The AstroTurf is Polypropylene (PP) astroturf where the Tarkett is polyethylene or polypropylene with unspecified water-resistant backing/coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 55 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the AstroTurf is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Tarkett grade, at 35% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
