Their site states it makes FOD instantly visible, reduces bird/wildlife attraction naturally compared to grass, and resists the cracking and erosion that affect concrete, asphalt and gravel. It is installed in hours to days rather than months and is described as fully ICAO compliant and FAA-compliant out of the box.
