Playground Surfacing
Choosing the right surfacing is an important consideration when designing a playground. Premier Park & Play provides a wide range of playground surfacing options to meet various needs, including both wood fiber and rubber surfaces, as well as sports surfacing for athletics fields.
Premier Park & Play can source and install the perfect playground surfacing for schools, parks and communities in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine and the rest of New England. Our products include the following types of surfacing:
Wood fiber
Low cost and eco-friendly, wood fiber playground surfacing has a pleasant, natural look and provides great fall protection. Free of paint, chemicals and additives, wood fiber is made from engineered wood fiber. It does require a little maintenance in the form of raking and top ups, but is a good choice for safe playground surfacing that doesn’t break the bank.
Rubber mulch
Rubber mulch provides the best fall protection of all loose fill playground surfacing options. Made from recycled tire material, rubber mulch will not absorb water and decompose, and requires fewer top ups than organic mulch such as wood fiber. It also comes in a variety of color choices, making it easy to ensure that your playground surface ties in with the color theme of your playground.
Poured-in-place rubber
Poured-in-place rubber is attractive, durable and is one of the best surfaces for ADA accessibility. It is best installed over asphalt, concrete or a compacted sub base, and comprises 2 layers - a cushioning layer, and a decorative top layer. Cushioning thickness can be customized per installation, while the top layer allows for creative freedom
Play Mounds
Kids love to climb. PlayMounds are built with foam, which allows them to climb and crawl at will, and if they fall and roll down the hill, the foam will transfer the impact, providing support the whole way down, so the child will be safe. PlayMounds are light-weight, durable, easy to install and repair.
Accessible Mats
These rubber mats are low maintenance, accessible and durable and help to bring accessibility to any play space and various play surfaces. They can go over loose fill surfaces to meet standards of accessible pathways.
