Product Description
Rubber Chippings for Safer Surfacing are crafted entirely from repurposed tyres. These chippings are versatile, suitable for numerous applications such as playgrounds, garden designs, chicken enclosures, terrariums, the periphery of bowling greens, and horse riding areas. They are durable and serve as an excellent substitute for traditional wood bark.
Rubber mulch lasts 10 times longer than traditional wood mulch. Its rich terracotta shade blends seamlessly with natural pathways and flowerbeds, while also providing a sturdy and secure surface for spacious regions. Offered in 6 hues, each is coated with a Polyurethane colour, ensuring they are completely non-toxic. Being rubber-derived, they resist mould and fungal growth, thus deterring insects and pests. Suitable for use in gardens, along walkways, and as garden edging.
Kindly be aware that this product is made from recycled materials. The colour may differ with each batch. For large-scale projects, we advise ordering sufficient quantities in one go to ensure colour consistency throughout.

Material Information
Rubber Characteristics:
Rubber mulch chippings are a type of mulch made from recycled rubber. They are created by shredding old tyres and then processing the resulting material to create small, uniform chips that are 99.9% wire free. These chips can then be used as a mulch in landscaping or as a safety surface for children's play areas.
When used as a mulch, rubber chippings provide many of the same benefits as traditional wood-based mulches. They help retain moisture in the soil, suppress weed growth, and regulate soil temperature. However, unlike wood mulch, rubber mulch does not decompose over time, which means it will not need to be replaced as frequently.
Rubber chippings are also commonly used as a safety surface in playgrounds and other areas where children play. This is because rubber mulch has excellent shock-absorbing properties, which can help prevent injuries from falls. It's also non-toxic, non-abrasive, and does not retain moisture or rot, making it a safe and comfortable surface for children to play on.
In addition to its safety benefits, rubber mulch is also an environmentally friendly option. By using recycled materials, it helps reduce waste in landfills and can contribute to a more sustainable landscape design. The rubber will last at least 10 years and the colour will remain in place for around 2 years before any fading occurs. The use of weedkillers, pressure washing, extreme weather and persistent rain will cause the rubber colour to fade.
What Thickness is Required?
For landscaping use as a garden mulch, it is recommended that a 40mm depth is used. The products shown for landscaping use on our website show the coverage achieved when laid at 40mm depth.
For play areas, it is essential that the correct thickness of rubber is used to meet the critical fall height regulations. The requirement is to use 50mm thickness for fall heights up to 1.1m, although it is recommened that the rubber is laid at 100mm thickness around the 1.1m high play equipment in case of displacement of the rubber. Our website shows play rubber at a thickness of 50mm and the associated coverage achieved.
All our coloured, rubber chippings are sold as certified to testing as a loose fill material to either a 50mm depth or 100mm depth. If you require a depth outside the tested depths then the critical fall height safety measurements will be impacted. We cannot guarantee that the appearance and/or colours of products shown on our website are an exact replica in the appearance and/or colours of the physical products themselves. Sizes are nominal and may vary. Some of our rubber is suitable for a number of applications, however it is the responsibility of the customer to carry out their own tests to ensure the different grades of rubber supplied meets with their application purpose, and where necessary compatible with any chemical binder they wish to add to their application.
