#4 SYNLawn introduces soybean-based putting green

In Georgia, soybean-based artificial grass maker SYNLawn has introduced a portable putting green to help golf enthusiasts practice their short game in a sustainable way.

According to the company, the Portable Golf Green with Fringe is “expertly designed” to provide customers with the most realistic putting surface. “As the weather gets warmer, more and more people are interested in portable putting green systems,” says George Neagle, executive vice president of SYNLawn. “As demand has gone up, we wanted to create an upgraded product that looks even more natural and performs better than any other like it on the market.”
