Overview
PlayBound™ Poured-in-Place
When evaluating the safety of a playground there are a number of critical components to consider including the type of surface being installed. To evaluate the safest option for your project it's important to understand the differences between surfacing types and the scientific facts regarding the safety of recycled rubber.
It’s always where you need it, when you need it.
PlayBound Poured-in-Place is a 2-layer system consisting of a basemat of 100% post-consumer recycled SBR (Styrene Butadiene Rubber) and polyurethane and a top surface consisting of recycled post-industrial EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber and polyurethane. It’s easily customized to meet the safety, design and aesthetic requirements of any playground.
- Field-applied in any design, configuration and dimensions
- Thickness can vary across surface – typical range is 1-3/4” to 5-1/2”
- Wet poured, two layers, troweled on site
- Basemat layer of SBR rubber and urethane binder and top surface layer of EPDM rubber and urethane binder
- Many colors and color combinations
- Porous
- Typically used outdoors
- Meets 4’ to 12’ critical fall heights per ASTM F-1292-04
- IPEMA certified
- Made from post-consumer and post-industrial recycled materials
- Eligible for LEED® credits and state grants
Our industry-leading percentage of material in the top surface significantly increases the surface’s expected life.
More material in the top surface layer means superior tensile strength (side-to-side pulling) and superior taber abrasion (top down wear).
Surface America’s top surface specification calls for an industry-leading 2.44 lbs. of material per square foot, yielding a dense, tight 1/2” nominal thickness.
Competitors use 10-40% less material in their top surfaces, resulting in a less-dense, thinner top surface and a shortened life expectancy.
Surface America’s PlayBound Poured-in-Place is IPEMA certified. To verify product certification, visit www.ipema.org.
