Sports Surfaces for Team Games
PlaySmart’s PerfectPitch surfacing is the perfect addition to any Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA). An excellent option for primary schools and sports zones, PerfectPitch is a safe surface for children to develop their knowledge of team games in a controlled environment.
Additionally, PerfectPitch includes optional play markings to customise your surface for any sport or activity. This allows you to introduce a MUGA (Multi-Use Games Area) to your site, to diversity the choice of activities further. A variety of markings and sports options helps encourage healthy competition between pupils, building social and physical skills through their playground activities.
With a proven lifecycle of 20+ years, PerfectPitch prioritises both longevity and multi-function purposes of your MUGAs.
Grass Mats for Safe Play at Height
PlaySmart has developed grass mats to retain the natural look of grass while also prioritising safety. We provide two types of grass mats. EcoSmart is a recycled and long lasting material to allow grass to grow through. Meanwhile our FireSmart adds to the EcoSmart design with fire retardant rubber we design to self-extinguish within 60 seconds.
Additionally, SmartPlay shock pads under these grass mats creates an ever safe surface for a play park or activity area. Enhanced safety is important for installations underneath taller play towers and active play equipment.
PlaySmart’s team designs all our surfaces to be hassle free and low maintenance. Grass mats are no exception to this. They only require simple cleaning and mowing the grass as usual once it has grown through. With minimal upkeep, you can have a safe surface that is fully wheelchair and buggy accessible- no muddy grass, and up to 2.5m Critical Fall Height Protection (CFH).
Rubber Flooring Solutions for Free Play Activity
PlaySmart’s wetpour is a classic and fun option for playing surfaces. RubbaSmart is our wetpour solution, coming in a range of colours, thickness, and designs, all while remaining durable and low-maintenance. PlaySmart supports you through the design, installation, and aftercare of your surface. Therefore, it is easier than ever to create the perfect surface to ensure children are engaged and safe in the space to play at your park, school, nursery, or community area.
With the ability to create designs with a theme in mind or a specific vision, we can turn your surfacing dreams into a reality. Surfacing can inspire imagination and role play for children. For example, wetpour in the design of a road is often highly popular, encouraging children to practise road safety and develop important coordination skills while roleplaying as drivers.
Similarly, wetpour designs (often including EPDM appliques) are perfect for playground activities such as hopscotch, racing, and other traditional or unconventional playground games. They collaborative game markings encourage communication, physical and mental development, and foundational motor skills.
This surface option is popular for use in schools and public parks. This is because wetpour is both visually appealing and highly safe. By offering different thicknesses and installation depths PlaySmart’s RubbaSmart wetpour provides a range of CFHs to prioritise child safety.
