Product Overview
A Premium Latex-Free Lawn - Ideal for Pets & Eco-Conscious Gardens in Essex
Single-plastic construction - potentially recyclable
The Essex Harmony Plus is a deluxe 39mm artificial grass with a standout feature that sets it apart from every other product in the range: it is made from a single plastic type throughout, with a latex-free polypropylene backing secured using polypropylene dispersion technology rather than traditional latex coating.
This makes the Harmony Plus the go-to recommendation for households with dogs. Because the backing contains no latex, it retains significantly less moisture when exposed to liquids - making it more hygienic and easier to manage in gardens where pets are urinating regularly. It also means the product could potentially be recycled at the end of its life, as the plastics do not need to be separated. Supplied and installed across Essex by our experienced team.

Key Benefits
Why Essex Homeowners Choose the Harmony Plus
The Harmony Plus is our standout recommendation for dog owners and anyone who wants a luxurious long-pile lawn with the added reassurance of a latex-free, more hygienic backing. Here is what makes it different.
The Best Choice for Dog Owners
The latex-free polypropylene backing retains far less moisture than latex-backed alternatives - making it significantly more hygienic in gardens where dogs urinate regularly.
Potentially Recyclable
Made from a single plastic type throughout, the Harmony Plus could be recycled at end of life - unlike grasses that combine incompatible plastics requiring separation.
Lush 39mm Pile
A full, generous pile height with a dense thatch layer beneath gives the Harmony Plus a luxuriously deep, natural appearance that looks great from every angle.
Fully Porous Drainage
The porous polypropylene backing allows rainwater and liquids to drain through freely - no puddling, no waterlogging, and a surface that stays usable whatever the Essex weather.
UV Stabilised
Fully UV stabilised yarn maintains the hunter and olivine colour blend year after year - no bleaching or fading, even in south-facing Essex gardens with extended sun exposure.
10-Year Guarantee
Backed by a full 10-year product guarantee - giving you long-term confidence in the quality and durability of your new lawn.
Why Latex-Free Matters
The Advantage of a Latex-Free Backing
Most artificial grasses use a latex coating to bond the yarn to the backing. The Harmony Plus takes a different approach: polypropylene dispersion technology is used instead, keeping the entire product within a single plastic family. This has two important practical advantages for Essex homeowners:
- Less moisture retention - a latex-free backing absorbs and retains significantly less liquid, making the surface easier to keep fresh and odour-free in pet households
- Potential recyclability - because all components are polypropylene-based, the product could in principle be recycled at end of life rather than going to landfill (note: if pieces are joined with tape, the taped section would need to be removed first)
- No latex allergen concerns - suitable for households with latex sensitivities
- Same durability and UV protection - the latex-free construction does not compromise the grass's performance, appearance, or longevity in any way
For dog-owning households in Essex, the Harmony Plus is the most hygienic artificial grass in our range. For more on pet-safe artificial grass, visit our pet and child safe fake grass page.
Maintenance
Easy to Clean, Easy to Live With
The Harmony Plus is designed to be as low-maintenance as possible - particularly important for households with dogs, where quick and easy cleaning matters most:
- No mowing, watering, feeding, or seasonal treatment required
- Liquid drains freely through the porous backing - urine does not pool on the surface
- Solid pet waste can simply be removed and the area rinsed down
- The dense thatch layer helps blades stay upright with minimal brushing
- An occasional rinse with clean water and light brush is all that's needed to keep it fresh
- No mud tracked indoors after Essex rain - clean and usable all year round

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What pile height does the Essex Harmony Plus have?
The Essex Harmony Plus has a 39mm pile height - a generous long-pile length that creates a full, lush lawn appearance with a cushioned, natural feel underfoot. The dense thatch layer beneath the blades adds depth and helps the pile stay upright over time.
What makes the Harmony Plus different from other grasses in the range?
The defining feature of the Harmony Plus is its latex-free construction. Rather than using a conventional latex coating to bond the yarn to the backing, it uses polypropylene dispersion technology - keeping the entire product within a single plastic family. This means the backing retains significantly less moisture, making it the most hygienic option in the range for pet households. It also means the product could potentially be recycled at end of life.
Why is the Harmony Plus recommended for dogs?
Most artificial grasses use a latex backing, which retains more moisture and can harbour odours over time - particularly where dogs are urinating. The Harmony Plus eliminates this issue with its latex-free polypropylene backing, which retains far less liquid. Combined with its fully porous drainage, it is the most practical and hygienic choice for gardens regularly used by dogs. For more on this topic, see our
pet and child safe fake grass page.
Is the Harmony Plus recyclable?
Potentially, yes. Because the Essex Harmony Plus is made from a single plastic type throughout (polypropylene and polyethylene yarn on a polypropylene backing, with no latex), it could in principle be recycled at the end of its life without needing to separate incompatible materials. This distinguishes it from most conventional artificial grasses. Please note: if two pieces are joined with adhesive tape during installation, the section containing the tape would need to be removed before recycling.
Does it require sand infill?
No. The Essex Harmony Plus does not require sand infill. The dense thatch construction provides sufficient support to keep the blades upright, maintaining the full, lush appearance without any infill material.
Is it suitable for children as well as pets?
Yes. The Harmony Plus is made from polypropylene and polyethylene yarn - both safe, non-toxic materials. Its soft, lush pile is comfortable for children to play on, and the hygienic latex-free backing makes it a sound choice for families with both children and animals sharing the garden.
How does drainage work on the Harmony Plus?
The Harmony Plus has a fully porous polypropylene backing that allows water and liquids to drain through freely. This means rainwater, hose water, and pet urine all pass through the grass rather than pooling on the surface - keeping the lawn dry, clean, and usable in all weather conditions.
Will it fade in the sun?
No. The Essex Harmony Plus is fully UV stabilised. The yarn is treated to resist colour fade from sunlight, maintaining the hunter and olivine colour tones throughout the product's lifespan - including in south-facing Essex gardens with extended sun exposure.
What guarantee does it come with?
The Essex Harmony Plus comes with a full 10-year product guarantee when professionally installed, covering the quality and integrity of the grass throughout that period.
How does the Harmony Plus compare to the Essex Titanium?
Both are premium long-pile grasses, but with different strengths. The
Essex Titanium (42mm) is built for maximum resilience to flattening, with a triple stitch construction and the densest pile in the range - ideal for very high-traffic areas. The Harmony Plus (39mm) prioritises hygiene and eco credentials through its latex-free construction, making it the better choice for dog owners or households where reducing moisture retention in the backing matters most. If heavy foot traffic is the primary concern, choose the Titanium. If you have dogs, choose the Harmony Plus.
Can it be used on a balcony or terrace?
Yes. The Harmony Plus is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, including balconies and terraces. The fully porous backing and durable construction make it well suited to elevated and hard-surface applications.
Do you install the Essex Harmony Plus across all of Essex?
Yes. We supply and install the Essex Harmony Plus throughout the whole of Essex - including Chelmsford, Brentwood, Basildon, Colchester, Southend-on-Sea, Harlow, Romford, and all surrounding areas.
