Playground Surfaces: Safe Outdoor Playground Flooring

 

Every day, thousands of children head outside to explore the world through play on the playground. But while a residential or commercial playground is meant to be a place to play and have fun, accidents can happen. Bruises, scrapes, and falls are all possible when kids play on playground equipment, which is why it's important to have safe playground flooring in outdoor play areas.

 

Playground Surface Options

PlaygroundEquipment.com has a great selection of safe and affordable playground surfaces, including:

  • Geotextile fabric
  • Rubber mulch nuggets
  • Rubber mats
  • Foam drainage triangles
  • Engineered wood fiber
  • Synthetic turf

What Is the Best Playground Surface Material?

Choosing the best playground flooring material for a residential or commercial space will depend on several factors, such as your budget, the equipment, and the area's size.

One of the most popular playground surfacing materials these days is rubber mulch. Playground rubber mulch is a safer type of outdoor playground flooring than traditional wood mulches that can break into splinters and pierce the skin. PlaygroundEquipment.com offers low prices on this recycled and permeable material that helps create a safe play surface for children without taking away from the aesthetic appearance of the playground. Our environmentally friendly recycled rubber mulch is also great to use around plants, trees, and shrubberies.

Wood Fiber Playground Flooring

We also carry wood fiber outdoor playground flooring. Wood fiber provides safe playground flooring and is highly economical. In addition to its safety benefits, wood fiber playground safety surfacing is slip-resistant and less expensive than some other playground surfaces. When installed properly, playground surfaces made of wood fiber make playgrounds accessible to those who are in wheelchairs or those who are pushing strollers. Installing a wood fiber play surface from PlaygroundEquipment.com will make your playground a safe and family-friendly environment for all to come and enjoy!

Rubber Playground Mats

If you're not interested in loose-fill surfacing such as mulch, we suggest you consider our rubber playground mats to place below your playground structures. When you install one of these playground mats at the bottom of a slide, for example, you provide a nice cushion for the kids that helps break their fall. You can order one or more of these playground mats in different sizes to improve your school or park playground. Because of their versatility, these outdoor rubber tiles are one of the top picks for many of our customers.

Playground Flooring Shipped Nationwide

Playground surfaces such as engineered wood fiber and rubber mulch are affordable and readily available nationwide through our distribution programs. However, other popular soft surfaces, such as poured-in-place playground rubber flooring, are available through our in-house installation crews.
