Choosing the Right Playground Surface
Every project is a little different, and the right rubber playground flooring will depend on the equipment, expected traffic, installation area and how the space will be used.
Rubber Tiles
Looking for a consistent surface beneath playground equipment or throughout a recreation area? Rubber tiles offer a durable option for spaces that see plenty of activity and are available in different thicknesses depending on your needs.
Poured-in-Place Rubber
For larger or more complex spaces, poured-in-place rubber creates a continuous surface that can work around playground equipment and different layouts. It also offers flexibility when it comes to colours and design.
Rubber Mulch
If you prefer a loose-fill surface, rubber mulch offers another option for playground and recreation areas. It provides cushioning underfoot while creating a look that is different from traditional rubber tiles or poured surfaces.
