Crafted from engineered, non-toxic crushed wood fiber, this product creates a loose-fill surface that provides stability and accessibility for children of all ages. This material helps cushion lateral falls, ensuring safety during play.
Our wood fiber has minimal bark and is free of paint chemicals and additives. While requiring regular maintenance and occasional topping off to maintain depth and compliance with standards and warranty, it can be easily installed by volunteers or professionals.
Product depth after installation must follow the ASTM F1292 impact attenuation standard and meet guidelines for critical fall height as set forth by the ASTM F1487 standard.
When receiving your Engineered Wood Fiber, please note that it is shipped in loose form and is pushed off of the back of the truck.
This product only includes the surfacing material, no playground equipment is included.
To extend its lifespan, we strongly recommend integrating a reliable drainage system to prevent freezing in cold, wet conditions. For optimal results, consulting with a certified engineer or landscape architect familiar with local soil and climate conditions is advisable to determine the appropriate drainage setup.
