This is the second large investment in the practice since its launch as The Exeter Dental...

Once known as a sub-par floor-covering that was only useful in the tackiest of situations and in sports arenas, it would seem that artificial grass is having the last laugh.
Over the past several years, the synthetic grass industry has seen a resurgence of interest from a variety of groups and industries. From ecologically motivated home owners to profit-motivated businesses, many entities within the UK and beyond have begun to take a second glance at the product.
Once Faltering, Synthetic Grass Is Now a Booming Industry
