Safety surfacing wet pour is often called a variety of different names, including bouncy safety surfaces. There are also other names such as rubber tarmac, spongy rubber surface, soft pour, soft play area surfacing or rubber crumb flooring.

The safety surfacing wet pour is created using a two-tier system including the sub base layer or shock pad layer which is made up of 2-6mm styrene-butadiene rubber granules mixed with a polyurethane resin and laid up to an edge on site.

The shock pad layer meets the safety standards and creates an impact absorbing play surfaces. This is to prevent injuries from critical falls of play equipment at a height such as climbing frames. 

This is the layer that usually varies in depth to meet the Critical Fall Heights or Free Fall Heights which is governed by the height of any playground equipment on the site and normally specified by the company that manufactures the play equipment. The playground safety surfacing wearing course layer is commonly made up of 1-4mm EPDM rubber crumb that is mixed with a polyurethane resin and laid on site.

The wearing course EPDM rubber granules are what determines the colour of the wet pour surfacing; wet pour EPDM rubber granules are available in a wide range of colours with graphic designs and playground surface activities. The wide range of colours that we use is red, green, blue, orange, purple, teal and many more. The colour EPDM along with the depth and size of the area being covered determines the prices and costs of the job.

Wetpour Surface Maintenance

Wet pour rubber surfacing requires a wet pour maintenance programme to keep it in prime condition. Maintaining it helps keep it clean and performing to its best consistently, and all it takes are a few simple procedures carried out regularly.

Leaves, weeds and other vegetation should not be allowed to sit on this area; this can cause a drain inhibiting skin to form on the facilities safety surface providing perfect conditions for moss algae and weeds to grow on the safety surface.

This allows moisture and water to be held on the surface, preventing it from being porous and could cause issues like expansion and contraction in freezing and cold conditions.

These problems can easily be prevented and save you a considerable amount of money in maintenance repairs just by regularly maintaining the surface with a brush and copious amounts of water as well as a light jet wash or hose down.

Making sure correct footwear is worn on wet pour rubber safety surfacing is also key to maintaining consistent performance of the rubber surface. Sharp footwear such as high heels or football boots could penetrate the wearing course of the surface.
