Mulch Products

Loose fill safety surfacing and mulch products have been around as long as playgrounds have. Our mulch products provide a cost-effective safety surface for your playground that is easy to install. All of our mulch products are manufactured with the highest quality standards in mind and provide unparalleled protection against playground injuries related to falls.

At PlaygroundSurfacing.com, we offer two types of mulch playground safety surfacing, Rubber Mulch and Engineered Wood Fiber, also known as E.W.F. Rubber mulch is manufactured from recycled tires and provides the highest level of fall protection of any safety surface. In addition to providing superior fall protection, Rubber Mulch is a low maintenance and affordable option for your playground.

E.W.F Mulch can come from a variety of natural timber sources, but most commonly is manufactured from Cypress or Cedar trees. The type of wood used to manufacture E.W.F will vary be region and availability. E.W.F is one of the most cost effective playground safety surfacing options available and provides adequate fall protection.

Loose fill playground surfaces are one of the most durable, safe and cost-effective surfacing options. We offer a variety of mulch products to meet your needs including Engineered Wood Fiber Mulch and Rubber mulch. Rubber mulch is great for more long-term use than organic products, and it provides excellent fall protection to help keep your playground safe. This rubber safety surfacing comes in loose flakes or “nuggets” and provides much of the safety of natural mulch with fewer drawbacks. Place this mulch where children may be liable to fall, like around a slide or set of monkey bars. This rubber play surface can help to ensure that any falls do not result in serious injuries.
