Playground Rubber Mulch
Rubber Mulch is the perfect choice as a safety surface for your home playground, school playground, municipal playground or private playground. Compared with wood mulch or other surfaces, Pinnacle Rubber Mulch is much safer, more cost-effective, durable, environmentally-friendly and lower-maintenance (you save time and hassle by removing the need to re-apply your safety surfacing once or twice every year). Plus, rubber mulch is clean - minimizing airborne dust and particles.
As playground safety surfacing, a 6-inch layer of Pinnacle Rubber Mulch will cushion a child’s fall from as high as 16 feet. With more than 200,000 children injured each year as a result of playground falls (as reported by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Council), safety surfacing is the most vital component of playground construction. Pinnacle Rubber Mulch has been certified by the International Play Equipment Manufacturers Association (IPEMA).

Environmentally Safe for Kids and Pets (and you)
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has endorsed the use of recycled rubber to cushion the surfaces of children’s playgrounds. For more information, visit www.epa.gov/osw/conserve/tools/cpg/products/playgrnd.htm.
Read the IPEMA Safety Summary about the use of Recycled Rubber in Playground Surfaces.
Across the nation, discarded rubber tires are being recycled and reused in innovative ways that promote safety and represent ingenuity. In as many as 100 studies in state after state, researchers have reached the same conclusion...
Recycled rubber poses no significant health or environmental risk.
In fact, rubber mulch is a superior choice for safety surfacing, affords ADA-Qualified wheelchair accessibility and doesn't splinter, fade, compress, decompose, wash or blow away. Plus, recycling old tires into useful, safe products prevents hundreds of millions of scrap tires annually from littering North American landfills and the countrysides.
