In 2011, we were looking for suitable substrates for our indoor quarantine enclosures, particularly for tortoises rescued from the illegal pet trade in Singapore. Being a non-profit organisation, we are always on the lookout for sponsored items: the less money we spend on such items, the more money we have for all our other various animal protection programmes!

That’s when we came across Blondal All Turf. The staff from

Blondal All Turf were keen to help us, by making a site visit to address our needs and suggesting various options. We were thrilled when they generously offered to donate synthetic turf periodically!

At the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre (AWRC), for the past several months, these pieces of turf have not only been used as substrates, but also to provide varying terrains, creating differing and enriching environments for the animals everyday. Some of our animals have even made use of the turf in their own ways, choosing to hide

underneath the turf pieces! The turf pieces are also easy to wash and manage, meaning we can spend less time on cleaning and more on other activities to benefit the animals, such as providing enrichment.

We are grateful to Blondal for all the synthetic turf donated to us, which has made such a positive difference in the everyday lives of animals rescued from the cruel wildlife trade. We definitely recommend Blondal All Turf for their compassionate hearts and excellent service!
