Artificial Grass in Guatemala City Creates a Pet-Friendly Dog Park

Artificial Grass in Guatemala City Creates a Pet-Friendly Dog Park

Matthew Wagner October 09th, 2026

Guatemala City, Guatemala – In a busy urban setting like Guatemala City, having convenient access to green space where people and their pets can spend time together makes a real difference. One of the city’s newest pet-friendly parks is located in the upscale Zone 10 area, on the grounds of the luxury shopping center Oakland Place. SYNLawn Guatemala was hired to design and build this green oasis using safe, eco-friendly artificial grass in Guatemala City.

Creating the Ultimate Pet-Friendly Destination With Synthetic Turf

SYNLawn Guatemala has proven expertise in creating pet-friendly spaces for commercial clients. The team previously built a luxurious rooftop dog park for residents of Edificio Vasanta, an apartment building also located in Zone 10.

For Oakland Place, the team installed more than 825 square feet (about 77 square meters) of SYNFescue 60, a synthetic turf designed for high-traffic areas. With its natural look, optimal drainage, excellent resiliency, and lasting color, it’s ideal for a busy dog park. Strong drainage is especially valuable during Guatemala City’s rainy season, helping the park dry quickly so pets and their owners can get back to playing.

SYNFescue 60 is safety tested and certified. It’s made with antimicrobial technology that helps keep the space fresh and reduces odors, and its non-toxic, lead-free materials create a safe, worry-free environment for pets and people alike.

Benefits of Artificial Grass for Dog Parks

Additional benefits of SYNFescue 60 include:

  • Eco-friendly: It features SYNLawn’s exclusive plant-based EnviroLoc+™ Backing System, made from renewable resources like soybean oil, and it eliminates the need for harmful chemicals like pesticides.
  • Low maintenance: It stays lush and green year-round without watering, mowing, or fertilizing.
  • Cleaner, safer pets: Dogs stay free of dirt and mud, and the risk of picking up fleas and ticks is lower than on natural grass.
  • Long-lasting durability: UV-stabilized grass fibers resist fading and wear for years to come.
