safety surfacing

Playground surfacing is one of the most important safety decisions in any playground project. The right surface softens the impact of a fall, maintains its protective depth over time, and keeps kids safe through years of heavy use. It also affects accessibility, maintenance requirements, aesthetics, and long-term cost. webuildfun offers a range of IPEMA-certified, ASTM-compliant surfacing options to fit any playground design, budget, and site condition, and we can help you determine which surface is the right fit for your project.

engineered wood fiber

100% virgin softwood and hardwood fibers, IPEMA-certified to ASTM standards F1232 and F2075. Non-toxic, non-flammable, and free of recycled wood, chemicals, or contaminants. Contains 10-20% fines for compaction and cohesion, with the majority of fibers not exceeding 1.5" in length. A proven, cost-effective surfacing solution for playgrounds of all sizes.

poured-in-place rubber

A seamless, slip-resistant, porous and permeable surface made from recycled rubber -- ideal for destination playgrounds that require custom color designs, patterns, or ADA-accessible pathways. Poured-in-place provides a clean, finished look that integrates with playground aesthetics while meeting safety standards for fall attenuation.

synthetic turf

Low-maintenance, ADA-compliant synthetic turf that won't fade, feels soft underfoot, and maintains consistent safety standards in high-traffic areas and all weather conditions. IPEMA-certified for playground grass systems and meets ASTM 1292 safety standards. Suitable for use under all types of play equipment at heights up to 12 feet.
