Cedar grey rubber mulch is a soft, strong, permeable rubber surfacing product for use around play areas, playgrounds, parks and other recreational areas. Each bag of mulch has been manufactured from recycled tyres before being covered in durable grey PU coating to create a bark like appearance. It is impact absorbing, wheelchair friendly and natural-looking.
Cedar grey mulch for playgrounds
It is created by being mixed together with a specially formulated, unpigmented resin binder in a forced action mixer before being laid and levelled out in the required area. Mulch is an easy to install product too which produces minimal disruption to the existing ground and site as mulch can be installed on to almost any level surface such as grass or soil. By choosing to use mulch over wet pour rubber you will be able to create a safe, free draining and vibrant protective surface which is suitable for for use around such a wide range of applications.
Rubber mulch: maintenance guidance
To ensure the area does not wear at an accelerated rate, we recommend following these maintenance tips:
- Only allow appropriate footwear to be used on the surface (high-heels and studs can damage the surface),
- Sweeping leaves and other debris away from the surface,
- Routine cleaning using hot water (not boiling) and soap to remove stains or mud whilst preventing moss, algae and vegetation build up,
- Removal of any singular weeds or plants by hand or groups of weeds using domestic weed killer but oil based weed killers must not be used.
- Re-coat the surface routinely to cover the mulch and prevent colour marking on users.

Please note: Due to normal wear and tear and UV exposure, over time all colour coated products are likely to expose the base rubber. As a result, mulch may leave black marks on users if not recoated as part of maintenance. There are often variations in shade and shred size between mulch batches. Any orders of a single colour over 100 bags of mulch may be from more than one batch. For batch information refer to manufacture codes and dates marked on the pallet.
