As carbon neutrality and a greener future is on the horizon, innovation is key. Playsmart is effectively contributing to this change of direction with our playground mats. Introducing EcoSmart as the best surface for children play area products.
EcoSmart are high-quality rubber grass playground mats from PlaySmart, the market leader in safety surfacing.
Made from recycled rubber, our mats provide a softer landing than safety tiles with a harsh plastic finish. EcoSmart is available with a 10-year product and a 5-year installation guarantee, as well as trademarked installation specifications.
By choosing EcoSmart, you’ll be choosing an environmentally friendly surfacing solution that is safe, durable, and cost-effective.
Now let’s dive in and discover the actual environment-friendly products.
Smartplay surfaces utilise a blend of recycled, reclaimed and natural rubber. Therefore they are an eco-friendly option, removing the need for padding or metal fibres in the mat. Also, we often couple SmartPlay with either fireproof mats or EcoSmart for the ultimate full-coverage safety surfaces.
Primarily, PlaySmart designed SmartPlay flooring to improve safety when using rubber grass mats for fall height protection. With a built in shock pad, it offers an enhanced safety surfacing system for natural play environments.
EcoSmart Grass Matting is at the forefront of our product range of Playground Safety Surfaces, the highest standards of quality and meeting the needs of our customers throughout the globe.
Our EcoSmart Grass mats are a more durable, better quality and heavier mat, compared to most generic grass matting on the market today. It is an environmentally friendly choice for grass mats, with recycled, long-lasting materials that allow the grass to grow through for natural play.
Grass matting is a great versatile solution. We can install these over an existing grass base without the need for digging out the current surface. When choosing this method, the current grass can grow through the matting to still have a natural looking surface for your playground. Additionally these add the most important safety element, to factor in the Critical Fall Height from set pieces of equipment.
EcoSmart grass mats create a completely natural play area. Due to the honeycomb structure of our grass matting, 10 – 60 days after installation, the grass will have grown back through the mat. This creates a play area that looks completely natural, as though there isn’t any safety surfacing underneath. All while ensuring the safety of the users all year round.
3. Combining EcoSmart and SmartPlay
If you’ve got Critical Fall Height concerns, EcoSmart grass mats are an ideal choice. They are certified for fall heights up to 2.25m. However, alongside our shock pad underlay in our SmartPlay System, the Fall Height coverage increases to 3m on a good grass base. It is possible to install shock pad directly on top of existing ground.
With Playsmart providing a longer life span for playgrounds and a surface that is bound to last, it’s a no brainer that you have SmartPlay installed alongside EcoSmart. If SmartPlay flooring was ever damaged or needed to be changed, consequently it is very easy to quickly replace. This safety surface most importantly adheres to British Standards BS EN 1177 ensuring the highest level of safety for children. This therefore makes the the playground an enabling environment for buggies and wheelchair uses,
