Overview
IntelliTurf
is dedicated to the professional design and installation of synthetic
putting greens, artificial turf lawn systems, playgrounds or play
areas, and recreational landscaping such as croquet and bocce courts.
Since the late 1990's, we have been researching and refining our products and processes to better deliver synthetic turf surfaces that look and play like natural grass. IntelliTurf's predecessor company was formed by Stan Pennington and over the years, we've installed putting greens, golf courses, and recreation play surfaces for home and property owners across the country. Now we're ready to take our concept a step further.

Products & Services
Formally Pennington Golf Design, Inc., IntelliTurf, Inc. is a construction and design firm that installs backyard putting greens and artificial turf surfaces for the golf and landscaping industries. Our focus is the installation of synthetic golf greens that play like natural grass. IntelliTurf has completed putting greens and practice areas using artificial turf for residences, multi-family housing, corporate campuses, private clubs, and driving ranges. We have built synthetic golf greens for golf courses and installed backyard putting greens in the United States as well as Europe and the Caribbean.
IntelliTurf has a history serving the putting green industry. Our lawn systems and play areas are equal in quality and performance. Over the years many consumers standing on or near our installations have asked if our lawn products were synthetic.
Now not only can you enjoy realistic golf conditions without much maintenance, our clients can also enjoy beautiful lawns and padded play areas that look and perform similar if not better than natural grass.

Lawns and Play Areas
Just like any other product, synthetic turf is only as good as its ingredients. For synthetic turf, that all depends on the Yarn. Utilizing the latest developments in Yarn technology, we can now create lawns and play areas that match the quality of our golf surfaces.
The same approach as our golf surfaces carries over to our lawn products. From design to installation, the IntelliTurf synthetic lawn systems are superior to any other product on the market. The look and feel that our lawn products reveal is simply spectacular. No amount of money spent on natural grass maintenance can give you the same results day in and day out as our lawn products.
Muddy playgrounds and splinters from mulch are problems of the past. With over 3 inches of padding and ground rubber, our play area surface is softer than natural grass and like all of our products, requires very little maintenance.
