Bonded Rubber Mulch

Bonded Rubber Mulch surfacing is an environmentally friendly choice. Made from 100% recycled rubber shreds, this provides an attractive versatile and almost maintenance free alternative to bark chippings.

Installing Bonded Rubber Mulch

Rubber Mulch safety surfacing encapsulates recycled tyre rubber in a tough PU polymer coloured pigment. Once cured the pigments and coating are both non-toxic and inert which makes them perfect for areas with children. Mulch surfacing requires minimal groundwork preparation and can be installed directly onto grass or existing surfacing which often means it is suitable for restricted budgets. It is the perfect solution for areas which excavation can be an issue such as areas densely populated with trees, we have completed many tree surround projects with rubber mulch.

When installed onto a dynamic base (stone or soil) this contributes to the Critical Fall Height considerably, this means greater fall heights can be achieved with less thickness than other safety surfacing.

Tested to the requirements of BS EN1177:2008, Bonded Rubber Mulch meets the standard to reduce risk of injury for children’s heads, legs, arms, shoulders and backs, making this a great choice for playgrounds.
