Recycled rubber transforms end-of-life tires into sustainable materials for recreational spaces, giving new purpose to what would otherwise become waste.
Over 100 peer-reviewed studies confirm that recycled rubber is a safe, reliable and responsible choice for community spaces. Access definitive research, case studies, and expert analyses to help your community make informed decisions.
Playgrounds and playing fields are where we play and gather. Using recycled rubber enables communities to keep their parks, playgrounds, and playing fields open even when there is inclement weather.
Recycled rubber offers cushion and protection that keeps people safe. It’s slip-resistant, quickly drains water, and reduces injuries from falls.
Turf fields remain open more often and cost less to maintain. Safe, open parks means communities can be physically active.
