In July 2022, we announced a new partnership with Next 2 Natural Turf, a Colorado-based artificial grass specialist and part of Graff’s Turf, a company with more than four decades of experience in natural grass installation and maintenance.
Since 2016, Next 2 Natural Turf had supplied artificial grass solutions for residential, commercial, and landscaping applications across Colorado and Texas, with plans at the time for further expansion into additional markets in the United States.
Combining natural and artificial turf expertise
As part of Graff’s Turf, Next 2 Natural benefited from extensive experience in both natural and artificial turf systems. This background provided a distinctive perspective on how different surface solutions can be applied to meet specific customer requirements.
In regions where water availability and maintenance considerations play an important role, artificial grass is increasingly being evaluated as one of several available landscape solutions.
Focus on end-of-life considerations
The addition of ONE-DNA™ artificial grass reflected Next 2 Natural Turf’s interest in products designed for recycling, with material recovery considered from the start.
According to Marty Thiel, Managing Director:
One of the aspects that attracted us to ONE-DNA™ is its focus on recyclability and circular product design. We believe it is important to continue exploring solutions that combine product performance with responsible end-of-life management. This addition allows us to offer customers another option when evaluating artificial grass products.
Supporting customer choice
Next 2 Natural Turf served homeowners, businesses, municipalities, and landscape professionals seeking hard-wearing and low-maintenance surface solutions.
By incorporating ONE-DNA™ artificial grass into its portfolio, the company expanded the range of products available to customers and provided access to artificial grass made in 100% PE (one polymer).
The partnership combined Next 2 Natural Turf’s market expertise and customer-focused approach with ONE-DNA™ technology, creating new opportunities for projects where durability, aesthetics, and material recovery after use are important considerations.
We welcomed Next 2 Natural Turf to our partner network at the time and looked forward to supporting projects across the United States.
Update, October 2026: this article was first published in July 2022 and is kept as a historical record. This partnership is no longer active. ONE-DNA™ currently has no distribution partner in the United States. Quote from 2022. ONE-DNA™ is designed for recycling; actual recycling depends on collection and local infrastructure.
