Schools and Nurseries
Surfaces for schools and nurseries
We live in an age where technology and communication has had a detrimental effect on children’s physical activity. The emphasis for schools and day nurseries is how to stimulate inclusive, exciting and exploratory outside play. This is also coupled with a strong emphasis on safe play and this is where Safer Surfacing can help. All of our surfacing solutions have a critical fall height certification.
Benefits
Safe
Rubber surfacing is safety tested for falls. The bouncy, soft surface feels pleasant to walk on. No hard stone or messy wood chip to clear up.
Colourful
We have spent many years perfecting our bespoke colouring system that delivers the highest quality coating, with no colour transfer. The colour lasts, without fading, so you can enjoy your garden year after year.
Permeable
Drainage is a big problem for urban areas. Our rubber surfacing (including resin bound) is completely permeable meaning waters drains away with no puddling or pooling.
Clean
The rubber surfacing is very easy to clean and can be hosed and brushed to remove dirt when wanted.
Sturdy
Chippings often blow away or rot, our rubber surfacing does neither. It maintains its form, not rotting or decomposing and does not blow away.
Maintenance
Our products require minimal maintenance and the rubber keeps it colour for many years. It also does not require an annual top up, leaving you with a product that lasts.
Safer Surfaces
Safer Surfacing manufacture, supply and install a wide variety of surfacing that can be installed in every play space. Because we manufacture our own recycled rubber surfacing products we are able to accommodate all sizes of school and nursery play surface projects. All of our products are recycled from used vehicle tyres and because we manufacture the finished product ourselves our products are far more cost-effective than a typical EPDM play surface. Our product range is recycled, sustainable and affordable.
More than Playgrounds...
Why stop at just playgrounds? Our loose fill or resin bound surfaces are perfect for mud defeating pathways or sports courts. You can even use our many colour options to create exciting patterns, graphics or game markings in any resin bound safety surface.
A Closer Look...
Loose Fill
A quick and easy solution, ready to play on immediately. A cost effective surface with excellent safety accreditation.
Resin Bound
A long lasting solution, the surface is 'glued' so that it is fixed in place whilst still allowing drainage. No more sweeping up.

Creating a safer playground surface for a local primary school
We were approached by Woodlands Road Primary School in Formby. They were looking for a new play surface to replace the old and tired artificial grass.
The area was small and just needed a new and safe playground surface to bring it back to life.
