Description
A specially formulated and specifically designed aromatic polyurethane binder which can be used with our entire range EPDM rubber crumb to create strong, safe and impact absorbing surfaces for use around play areas, playgrounds and recreational areas. This resin binder is a popular choice with wet pour rubber installers as it cures at a slower rate in warmer weather which can be an issue if the binder cures before the material has finished being installed. This binder does not prevent yellowing or discolouration of rubber crumb surfaces like the UV stable variation.
Typically, 100kg of EPDM rubber crumb is mixed with one 22kg resin binder in a forced action mixer to create a smooth and consistently mixed material ready to be installed.
Who is rubber crumb binder for?
Rubber crumb and chippings create a strong, durable and impact absorbent surface, ideal for anywhere that falls and tumbles may occur. They are therefore supplied to schools, sports clubs, local authorities and more.
Wet Pour Rubber
Wet pour rubber is an impact-absorbing and low-maintenance rubber crumb safety surface. It is most commonly used in flooring around playgrounds, parks and other recreational areas. Wet Pour Rubber has a high critical fall height which helps to reduce injuries.
Wet pour rubber is created by mixing together a coloured EPDM rubber and a wet pour specific resin binder in a forced action mixer. This creates a material that can be easily spread, leveled off and finished off using a trowel.
The material created is versatile as it can be used in various applications. It is permeable as it allows surface water to drain away naturally, which reduces the risk of localised flooding.
The surface is low maintenance as it is easy to maintain by wearing suitable footwear and brushing or washing with soap and hot water.
There is plenty of variation with 20+ EPDM rubber crumb variants available.
