100% Zeolite Top-Layer Turf Infill — Controls Pet Odors & Cools Artificial Grass

Eliminate pet odors and cool down your artificial turf in one step with Alliance Gator XTurf Infill Sand Zeo-White — a 100% pure zeolite top-layer infill engineered to absorb ammonia-based pet odors, reduce artificial turf surface temperature, and keep synthetic grass looking fresh and standing upright. This 40 lb bag is the go-to topping infill for pet playgrounds, backyard turf installations, and any synthetic grass system where odor control and cooler surface temperatures matter.

Whether you're installing a brand-new pet turf area, refreshing an existing artificial lawn, or adding a performance top layer over your primary beige or green infill, Zeo-White delivers the chemistry that stops pet odor problems before they start — with the added bonus of naturally cooling turf surfaces through its unique porous mineral structure.

Why Pros & Pet Owners Choose Gator Zeo-White

Standard silica infill weighs turf down and keeps blades upright — but it does nothing for odors or heat. Rubber crumb infill gets dangerously hot in direct sunlight and offers zero odor control. Zeo-White is different: it's made from 100% natural zeolite — a microporous mineral with a crystalline structure of silicon, aluminum, and oxygen that creates millions of cavities and channels at the molecular level. These cavities trap ammonia molecules (the source of pet urine odor) and absorb heat from sunlight, cooling the turf surface through water transpiration. It's nature's own odor and temperature solution, packaged in a ready-to-apply infill.

Key Features & Benefits

• 100% pure zeolite — natural microporous mineral
• Controls foul odors — helps prevent, reduce, and control pet waste smells (ammonia)
• Cools artificial turf surfaces — absorbs solar heat and transpires water
• Ideal pet playground topping — the #1 recommended odor-control infill
• Easy to replace when soiled — white color makes it visible
• Non-toxic & environmentally safe — safe for children and pets
• Cooler than rubber infill — no burning feet on hot days
• Pairs perfectly with Gator XTurf Beige or Green primary infill
• Helps keep turf blades upright — maintains natural appearance
• Resists mildew
• 40 lb bag — convenient for residential projects

How Zeolite Works (The Science)

Zeolite is a naturally occurring mineral with a unique crystalline structure made of silicon, aluminum, and oxygen. This structure forms a framework with microscopic cavities and channels where water molecules, ammonia, and other small molecules can be absorbed and held. When pet urine hits zeolite-topped turf, the ammonia molecules are captured and neutralized at the molecular level rather than lingering on the surface. When sunlight hits the turf, the water stored in zeolite's cavities transpires into the atmosphere — cooling the artificial grass surface significantly compared to traditional silica or rubber infills.

Perfect For These Applications

• Pet playgrounds & dog run areas
• Residential backyard artificial turf
• Commercial pet daycare & kennels
• Rooftop turf installations
• Pool surround synthetic grass
• Artificial turf patios
• Second/top infill layer over Gator XTurf Beige or Green primary infill
• Any turf system with blade height 1"–2"

Coverage & Usage Chart

Gator Zeo-White is designed as a top-layer infill (applied on top of a primary beige or green infill). Coverage varies based on turf blade height and application rate:

Application	Application Rate	Coverage per 40 lb Bag
Top-Layer Infill (Light Application)	0.25 lb/sq. ft.	~160 sq. ft.
Top-Layer Infill (Medium Application)	0.75 lb/sq. ft.	~53 sq. ft.
Top-Layer Infill (Heavy — Pet Areas)	1.5 lb/sq. ft.	~26.7 sq. ft.

Heavier applications are recommended for high-traffic pet areas or turf with taller blade heights. Gator Zeo-White is typically used at roughly ⅓ of the total infill height (top layer), with a primary beige or green infill making up the bottom ⅔.

Quick Installation Overview

1. Install primary infill first: Apply Gator XTurf Infill Sand Beige or Green as the bottom ⅔ of your total infill layer.
2. Wait for Gator XP Glue to set (3–4 hours) before applying infill if you've just seamed turf sections.
3. Spread Zeo-White using a drop spreader with adjustable spread rate — apply in thin, even layers at your chosen application rate.
4. Brush the turf with a stiff-bristle broom, turf rake, or Power Broom to work the Zeo-White infill down between the blades. Never use a metal leaf rake — it damages turf blades.
5. Brush in multiple directions (north-south AND east-west) for complete, even coverage.
6. Blow off excess Zeo-White and cut blades from the turf surface using a leaf blower.
7. Lightly mist with water after brooming and blowing to remove static and help the Zeo-White settle in place.

Twice-a-Year Maintenance

To maintain the odor-control and cooling effect of your Zeo-White top layer, top-dress the turf twice per year:

• Fall: Remove leaves and debris with an artificial turf rake. Add a fresh coat of Zeo-White as needed.
• Spring: Straighten blades flattened by snow. Remove any pet waste and water down dirty blades. When dry, add a fresh layer of Zeo-White.

Important Notes

• Top-layer infill only — use with Gator XTurf Beige or Green as the primary infill
• Ideal for pet playgrounds and any turf area with odor concerns
• Ensure Gator XP Glue is fully set (3–4 hours) before applying infill if turf has been seamed
• Never use a metal leaf rake on artificial turf — use a stiff-bristle broom, turf rake, or Power Broom
• Apply in thin, even layers for best coverage
• Lightly water after installation to settle infill and reduce static
• The white color is intentional — makes it easy to see where to top-dress when soiled
• Always refer to the latest Gator XTurf Technical Data Sheet at AllianceGator.com before installing

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Zeo-White control pet odors?
Zeolite is a natural microporous mineral with millions of tiny cavities in its crystalline structure. These cavities absorb and trap ammonia molecules (the main cause of pet urine odor) at the molecular level, preventing the smell from lingering on the turf surface.

Does it really cool artificial turf?
Yes — zeolite absorbs water into its crystalline cavities, and when sunlight hits the turf, the stored water transpires into the atmosphere, cooling the surface temperature significantly. This is why Zeo-White stays much cooler than rubber or sand infills in direct sun.

Is it safe for pets and children?
Yes — Zeo-White is 100% natural zeolite, non-toxic, and environmentally safe. It's specifically designed for pet playgrounds and residential turf where children and pets will be in direct contact.

Do I use it instead of regular infill sand?
No — Zeo-White is designed as a top-layer infill used in combination with a primary infill like Gator XTurf Beige or Green. Use the beige/green infill for the bottom ⅔ of the total infill depth and Zeo-White for the top ⅓.

How much do I need for a pet area?
For pet playgrounds, apply Zeo-White at 1.5 lb/sq. ft. as a heavy top layer — one 40 lb bag covers about 26.7 sq. ft. at this rate. For general landscape turf, 0.25–0.75 lb/sq. ft. is typical.

How often should I reapply?
Top-dress twice per year (spring and fall) or as needed for heavy-use pet areas.

Why is the color white?
The white color makes it easy to visually identify soiled sections of your turf and replace only what's needed — a practical choice for long-term maintenance.

Is it better than rubber crumb infill?
For cooling and odor control — yes. Rubber infill traps heat and has no odor-absorbing properties. Zeo-White keeps turf cooler and actively controls pet odors at the molecular level.

Does it resist mildew?
Yes — zeolite naturally resists mildew growth.

Can I use it over existing infill without removing what's there?
Yes — Zeo-White can be added as a fresh top-dress over existing beige or green infill. Just brush it in thoroughly and water lightly to settle.
