Playsafe Playgrounds Safety Surfacing

Wet Pour Safety Surfacing –

The Wet Pour safety surface is constructed of bonded rubber mixed on site using specialist equipment to produce a dense, consistent texture. It is then ‘wet laid’ to exacting standards BSEN1177.

The key advantages of Wet Pour Rubber Surfacing are:

• It can be installed to uneven surfaces and around existing play equipment
• Durable, robust and resilient solution
• It can be laid in high traffic areas
• Reduces injury potential from falls
• Low maintenance solution
• Easy to clean and maintain
• Tolerates many weather extremes
• Can be laid to different depths depending on the Critical Fall Heights
• Graphic Designs can be incorporated into the layouts

Installation –

The base on which the rubber surface is laid is either non-fines concrete or MOT Type 1, dependent on the depth of surfacing required for each area.

The top layer (wearing course) is Ethylene Propylene Diene polyethylene-modified rubber (EPDM) which is available in black, red, green, blue, beige, purple, eggshell, brown and yellow. A flecked pattern can also be achieved by mixing black with any of the other colours. To add to the play value of playgrounds, colourful graphics can be designed into the surfacing to individual requirements. The surface is slip-resistant and non-abrasive to young limbs.

Different areas beneath the equipment are laid to differing thicknesses to provide the necessary impact absorbency. The correct thickness and area are determined by the Free Fall Height (FFH) of the equipment to be installed. Wet pour safety surfacing can be laid around complex configurations of playground equipment and ground contours. It is virtually maintenance free.

The above guarantees do not include any of the following – cosmetic issues e.g. fading colours or any dis-colouration due to weathering, misuse, neglect or accident. Any damage resulting from vandalism, abnormal use or lack of maintenance is not covered by this guarantee.
