Types of play surfaces

Pigmented Economy product is made from 100% recycled rubber granules with a colorful pigmented coating and a urethane binder. Colorful and suitable for Daycare, Church or Primary School use. Limited Colors Available 3/8” Wear Course

Demo & Replace Sometimes a surface is just too old or neglected to be refurbished, which may require complete re-installation. If this is the case, our professional crew will demolish and remove all old material from the site and work with you to create a new surfacing solution to suit your budget and unique site needs.
Aliphatic Our high quality Aliphatic surfacing recommended for lighter colors and high-traffic playgrounds. Full Assortment of Colors Available 1/2” Wear Course
Drainage System Our geocomposite Drainage System was engineered specifically for recreation and playground areas and solves groundwater and drainage issues. We offer surfacing accessories that enhance drainage, contain loose fill surfacing and reduce maintenance. These accessories can improve the performance of your surfacing solution and help ensure continued compliance.
Thermal Plastic Vulcanized (TPV) Our Thermoplastic product provides more vibrant colors and greater wearability. Aliphatic recommended for colors: Cream, Yellow, Sky Blue. Assortment of Colors Available, No Black 1/2” Wear Course
Engineered Wood Fiber Engineered wood fiber is a popular choice for projects with initial budget constraints. However, it will require ongoing raking and occasional topping off during its lifetime due to compaction and decomposition. This maintenance will help ensure the correct material depth for compliance with safety and accessibility standards. Once the newly installed EWF has settled, it forms a “knitted” layer that is designed to support a variety of mobility devices including wheelchairs, crutches, and walkers.
EWF Top Off We can help facilitate regular top-offs to ensure your surfacing is maintained at the appropriate depth.
Supreme Highest quality product on the market. Dense & long-lasting, with the best elongation and tensile strength in the industry. Limited Colors Available 1/2″ Wear Course
Geotextile Fabric Geotextile fabric provides a water permeable separation barrier between soil and loose fill surfaces. It helps prevent clogging of drainage systems and helps hold the surfacing in place. It is a required element of shredded rubber and engineered wood fiber installations.

We offer surfacing accessories that enhance drainage, contain loose fill surfacing and reduce maintenance. These accessories can improve the performance of your surfacing solution and help ensure continued compliance.
