The Importance of Quality Surfacing

Quality playground surfacing is more than just a finishing touch; it's the bedrock of a safe and inclusive play space. It plays a crucial role in minimizing the risk of injuries from falls, especially by meeting the requirements for Critical Fall Height. Proper surfacing also ensures compliance with essential safety standards, such as those set by the CPSC and ADA, making the playground accessible to children of all abilities. Beyond safety, vibrant and well-maintained surfacing enhances the overall aesthetic appeal and contributes to a more enjoyable play experience for everyone.

Tips for Buying Playground Surfacing

You need playground surfacing, but don’t know where to start? We get it! Most people don’t purchase playground surfacing every day. As experts in playground equipment for over two decades, we want to share the top things you need to do to get your surfacing project across the finish line:

  • Get Clear on Budgeting. Many of our customers explore surfacing options without a clear understanding of the costs involved. Some people select their preferred surfacing and then seek budget approval. By coordinating with us, we can help you find surfacing solutions that align with budgets of any size, providing options and alternatives to meet your financial constraints.
  • Measure Your Space Beforehand. A key question we address is: will it fit? To answer that, you need to consider the area required for the play equipment and the necessary safety zone around it, which is directly related to the surfacing requirements. We can provide guidance on the appropriate surfacing area and volume needed for your chosen equipment and site dimensions.
  • Plan for Surfacing Depth & Type. Well-designed, safe playgrounds require the right surfacing depth and type. By ensuring that you have the appropriate surfacing for your equipment's fall height and your site's conditions, your playground will be safe and enjoyable for many years to come!
  • Figure Out Detailed Requirements. Do you need your surfacing to be ADA-compliant? Are there specific accessibility needs to consider? Our trained staff can help you navigate these requirements, ensuring that your surfacing choice meets all necessary regulations and accommodates all users.
