Playground safety surfacing, markings and graphics

Peak Playgrounds offer a range of different safety surfacing options depending on your requirements and playground environment. We recommend that our equipment is installed with safety surfacing to meet or exceed British Safety Standards BS 1176 and 1177 requirements.

In a majority of cases safety surfacing is dual purpose. It helps keep the equipment looking great and keeps the free space around the equipment free from obstructions. In high travel areas, the ground can become damaged or muddy, safety surfacing helps prevent this from happening. In most cases we will recommend that equipment installed into grass also has lawn matting to ensure the grass remains in good condition.

Our safety playground surfacing options include:

• Wetpour - A textured rubber surface that creates an even surface with improved grip.
• Bonded rubber mulch - A natural looking surface made from bonded rubber flakes.
• Lawn Mat - A low cost solution for play equipment installed into grass areas. Helps prevent grass from becoming muddy and boggy in high travel areas.
• Bark (loose fill) - Bark creates a natural look and feel in any playground. Most loose fill surfaces require a boarder to contain them and will require topping up over time.
