SAFETY SURFACES
At Swift Recreation, we offer a variety of surfacing solutions from top manufacturers to ensure the safety and durability of your playgrounds. Explore our options below.
NO FAULT SURFACES
Poured-In-Place Rubber Surfacing
We trust No Fault for our poured-in-place (PIP) rubber surfacing, a durable, smooth material that enhances playground safety. This system combines specialized granules with a rubber attenuation layer and European polymer, creating a stable, shock-absorbing surface. With over 40 years of experience, No Fault is the original innovator of PIP, having installed over 16 million square feet of surfacing in seven countries. The surfacing is customizable with patterns and graphics, offering creative design possibilities for schools, parks, and more.
NO FAULT SURFACES
Bonded Rubber Mulch
No Fault’s bonded rubber mulch is a cost-effective alternative that doesn’t require a concrete base. This single-pour surfacing option blends shredded rubber mulch with polyurethane adhesive, offering a natural appearance and safety for your outdoor areas. It’s available in multiple colors and meets specific fall height protection standards.
SOUTHERN TURF SUPPLY
Padded Synthetic Turf Surfacing
For a cost-effective, accessible, and inclusive playground surfacing option, we trust Southern Turf Supply. Their padded turf provides a safer, more affordable alternative to poured-in-place and bonded rubber mulch, while offering greater accessibility than loose rubber nuggets or wood mulch. This synthetic grass solution is designed specifically for playgrounds, ensuring a soft, cushioned surface that meets all safety standards. Southern Turf Supply’s turf is low-maintenance and durable, making it an excellent long-term investment for creating safe, welcoming play environments.
IMC OUTDOOR LIVING
Loose Rubber Mulch Nuggets
For loose-fill rubber mulch, we rely on IMC Outdoor Living, a leader in recycled rubber products. Their rubber mulch nuggets offer superior fall protection with a rating up to 14 feet, and a 12-year color guarantee ensures long-lasting aesthetics. Made from 100% recycled rubber, this mulch is ideal for both playgrounds and landscaping, preventing weed growth and deterring insects. Available in Earthtone, Redwood, Caribbean Blue, Forest Green, and Classic Black, IMC’s mulch provides a safe, low-maintenance option for your outdoor spaces.
ZEAGER BROTHERS
Engineered Wood Fiber (EWF)
Zeager Brothers, Inc. is our go-to for engineered wood fiber, the most affordable surfacing option we offer. EWF is widely used across U.S. playgrounds for its impact-absorbing qualities and firm, slip-resistant surface. It’s also compliant with accessibility guidelines, providing a safe play environment for all children. Choosing Zeager’s high-quality wood fiber ensures durability and lower maintenance costs over time, making it a smart investment for any playground.
