Playground Safety Flooring

The use of EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) type of rubber has become one of the most common safety forms of playground flooring. This is mainly due to the effectiveness and durability of rubber granules in reducing injury risks for children at play. This type of flooring also provides a cushioned landing in case a child falls from a height, making it a safe option. Additionally, playground flooring made from EPDM rubber is slip-resistant, porous, and easy to maintain. EPDM rubber surfacing is typically installed in two layers: a wearing course and a shock pad. The first layer consists of large rubber chunks known as SBR (styrene butadiene rubber), which provide impact absorption. This layer is available in various thicknesses to suit different needs. The second layer, made of small EPDM granules, adds strength to the surface. The two layers are bound together with a polyurethane resin binder that hardens to form the final playground flooring, ensuring safety and durability.

Sports Tracks Flooring

Polyurethane athletic tracks are among the most advanced jogging track flooring systems, designed to provide runners with enhanced performance while offering cushioning for safe training. These running track surfaces use proprietary poly resin binders, ensuring a perfect balance between dynamic response and cushioning, delivering optimal performance and added safety for runners.

The jogging track flooring is composed of polyurethane materials, EPDM, and black SBR rubber, applied through specialized spray pumps and machinery. EPDM rubber granules offer several benefits for jogging track surfaces, including:

These running track surfaces are versatile and can be applied to various bases such as asphalt, cement, and concrete, making them ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations.
