The safety surfacing of the playground must be a top priority. Choosing the right playground surfacing material can significantly reduce the chances of injuries to a greater extent. It’s because playgrounds usually have a hard surface which can inflict a lot of damage to the kids on falling. However, if the ground or floor has safety surfacing installed, it can minimize the damage inflicted. Most of the times, safety surfacing material is made from rubber or related material that helps in absorbing the impact of fall. And this is how the damage to the kids is reduced.

We have surfacing experts who are skilled in providing these services in a simplified manner. Even in South Dakota, our services are demanded by people to a large extent. Our company offers a range of different safety surfacing materials to choose from. EPDM rubber, bonded rubber mulch, synthetic turf, rubber tiles being some common examples. All these materials have their unique significance. So, you can choose as per the requirements.
What is safety surfacing?
The playground safety surfacing is applying efficient flooring materials that ensure the safety of all age groups in the playground. There is plenty of playground safety surfacing options to choose from.
What are the important factors which govern the choice of safety surfacing material?
Our representatives can help you ensure that all the critical conditions regarding the fall height and other safety surfacing requirements are met. We can aid you with ADA compliance and help in achieving the needed ADA access to the playground.
ADA standards for the playgrounds require them to include a material that ensures safety and is readily available, accessible, and usable by disabled people. There must be the provision of an accessible path to the playground, such as barrier-free travel routes, ramps. The routes and ramps must have a protective surfacing structure which is easy for children with disabilities. The playground must meet the ADA compliant ratio of accessible ground level and elevated play events. According to the CPSC, nearly 70 % of playground injuries are caused due to falls. The fall on a hard surface such as packed earth, concrete, or blacktop can cause very serious injuries. So, it is highly important that safety surfacing should be considered around or underneath the types of equipment in the playground. Head injuries, which are the most serious types of injuries occurring in the playground, can be very easily reduced with proper safety surfacing. The safety surfacing in the play area must comply with the regulations laid by ATSM for impact attenuation. At our organization, we'll present you with data related to fall attenuation and help you choose and decide the safety surfacing you wish to install. A use zone is important under and around equipment wherein a child might fall or is expected to land. It is an essential compliance standard that must be met when you are surfacing a playground. The use zone area should be free from obstacles or other equipment. For a swing of 8 feet, 16 feet must be kept on either side, for a total width of 32 feet width to ensure safety. Good drainage is an essential condition to keep the playground functional and safe. Some factors that must be considered are:
ADA accessibility and legal requirements
Critical fall height or impact attenuation
Use zones
Drainage and topography
