Artificial grass surfaces are a low maintenance addition to your sports or play area.
Our design team can assist in the appropriate choice of surface for your outdoor space. With safety as top priority, our year-round, all-weather surfaces reduce trip hazards and create a perfect surface for a range of our play equipment.
Child Safe Artificial Grass
We have longer pile surfaces that are perfect for children! The grass is waxed and provides a soft feel to touch so children will not get friction burns.
Around play areas from 1 to 3 metre – we can install foam pads to meet critical fall height regulations. Available on request.
Thames Ditton Infant School – London
We’ve created bespoke surfaces for a number of schools throughout the UK. By replacing muddy, dangerous and worn areas with artificial surfaces, we can create beautiful and functional all year-round sports facilities.
At Thames Ditton Infant School in London, we replaced their front field with artificial grass. Where the previous surface was a dustbowl in the summer and a mud bath in winter, the new surface is suitable for sport or general play in all weathers.
Working in conjunction with local residents and the council, we were able to lay the new surface with minimum disruption to the surrounding residential area.
Rubber Mulch
Rubber Mulch is a special surface, which provides protection from falls and trips, making it ideal for use in play areas. Especially effective in playgrounds, rubber mulch can provide an alternative to natural grass, which looks great and provides high levels of health and safety.
Made from shredded rubber, the mulch surface can be used to cover almost any surface, as it requires no formal groundworks. A porous surface, rubber mulch is durable, making it ideal for play areas or walkways. Available in a range of colours, mulch can be used to fit in with its surroundings, creating interest and a natural look.
The mulch can also be bonded to create a durable and low maintenance surfacing option.
Wet pour rubber safety surfacing
Made from two bonded layers of rubber, wet pour rubber is available in virtually any colour, enabling any logo, design or pattern to be recreated on your playground surface.
Laid onto existing tarmac, wet pour rubber is seamless, highly absorbing and ideal for outdoor play.
Any design is possible, meaning creating running tracks, exciting shapes or other popular playtime games such as hopscotch is easy.
