SpectraTurf's Loose Rubber Mulch is a safe and durable option for any outdoor application with play areas or playground equipment. Our Loose Rubber Mulch is softer and more springy than wood chips, and it requires up to 50% less material than engineered wood fiber or wood mulch. SpectraTurf's Loose Rubber Mulch is ideal for schools, public playgrounds, and any outdoor play areas. It is made of 100% recycled materials, conforms to ADA requirements, and is IPEMA Certified.

To date, SpectraTurf has installed millions of square feet of playground and recreational surfacing. These two new products offer some of the same benefits of safety and durability, but uniquely use recycled rubber material and are more cost-effective than other playground safety surface systems.  

SpectraTurf's Loose Rubber Mulch combines the cost-effectiveness of mulch with the safety features of rubber. SpectraTurf's Loose Rubber Mulch requires up to 50% less material than wood mulch to qualify as a playground safety surface protecting children from injuries incurred on playgrounds such as falls. Unlike wood mulch which breaks down into dirt and dust, SpectraTurf's Loose Rubber Mulch does not rot or decay. This creates a cleaner play environment and minimizes the need to replenish mulched areas with fresh material each year. SpectraTurf's Loose Rubber Mulch conforms to ADA requirements.

SpectraTurf's Bonded Rubber Mulch outperforms wood mulch in shock-absorption, durability, and accessibility. SpectraTurf's Bonded Rubber Mulch makes exploring outdoor trails and walkways accessible for everyone, meeting ASTM F1951 requirements for accessibility, while also providing the anti-fatigue benefits of rubber. This product does not break down or get displaced with use, making it a superior surface for trails, walkways, and permanent landscaped areas.

"We wanted to provide a solution for those looking for a material to protect children at play and others enjoying the outdoors that didn't offer the more contemporary design features available in our other rubber playground safety surfacing like SpectraPour or SpectraBound Tile," states Lisa Anderson, General Manager at SpectraTurf. "SpectraTurf's Bonded Rubber Mulch and Loose Rubber Mulch are just two more ways we are constantly innovating to meet the needs of municipalities, schools, hotels, businesses, and anyone looking to create a beautiful and safe outdoor recreation area."
