Loosefill
Loose-fill safer surfacing has excellent impact absorbing properties and combines well with many units to give a warm, natural appearance.
The capital cost of loosefill surfacing is far less than wet pour and tiles, however maintenance costs (i.e. raking and top-ups) should be taken into account.
To meet the requirements of BS EN 1176 and BS EN 1177, all Playdale loosefill surfaces should be maintained to a depth of 250mm. The use of raised loosefill areas will aid drainage.
Cushionfall
This is an environmentally friendly surface, produced from recycled timber products. The shreaded timber gives excellent impact absorbing properties and is provided in a variety of colours.
Playgrade Bark
This high quality graded Pine bark gives an attractive surface, which is well suited to most locations and for use with the majority of equipment.

Pea Gravel: Pea gravel can be used as a decorative surface in large areas at a 100mm depth. It would normally be used for a pedestrian or seating area but can also be used underneath suitable pieces of equipment at a 250mm depth |
