SmartPlay Installation Process
Why SmartPlay?
SmartPlay has a range of benefits, including enhanced fall heights, encouraging grass growth in high action areas and preventing grass mats from sinking into the ground.
SmartPlay can be laid on top of existing ground using turf to create a ramp edge or alternatively the ground can be excavated to the depth required to accommodate the 30mm shock pad to create one level surface.
Our SmartPlay System is tested on both concrete and grass bases by Labosport and is certified for fall heights from 0.8m all the way up to 3m. Not only does the system have incredibly good certification results, it also increases the longevity of the playground surfacing. You can read more about Critical Fall Heights in our dedicated blog.
SmartPlay Installation process
The first step of the SmartPlay installation process is to install our 45mm shock pads. In the second step, we filled the holes in the shock pads with topsoil, then laid 25mm topsoil with grass seed over the top of the pads. Finally, we installed our EcoSmart matting. These photos show the installation process at Radford Semele. The final photo was taken once the grass had grown through.
