What Makes Our Rubber Mulch a Better Option

Safer Surfaces for Playgrounds

Our rubber playground mulch helps reduce the risk of injuries by absorbing impact from falls. It meets safety standards used by schools, parks, and childcare centers. It stays in place and won’t shift like wood mulch or gravel.

Recycled rubber mulch is a popular choice for playgrounds for several reasons:

Safety - Rubber mulch provides a cushioned surface that helps reduce the risk of injuries from falls on playgrounds. It offers better impact absorption than traditional mulch, making it an excellent choice for play areas.
Durability - Rubber mulch is highly durable and can withstand harsh weather conditions, including heavy rain and extreme temperatures. It doesn't decompose or break down like organic mulches, so it can last for many years without the need for frequent replacement.
Low Maintenance - Unlike wood mulch, rubber mulch does not require frequent replenishing or raking. It maintains its appearance and functionality over time, reducing maintenance costs and efforts.
Weed Suppression - Rubber mulch effectively suppresses weed growth, helping to keep your playground area looking neat and well-maintained. This can reduce the need for herbicides or manual weeding.
Resistant to Pests and Mold - Rubber mulch is not attractive to pests like termites or rodents, and it doesn't support mold or fungi growth, which can be common issues with organic mulches.

No More Constant Replacements

Rubber mulch does not break down over time. You won’t need to replace it every year. It holds its shape and color, even in tough weather. Once installed, it keeps working without extra effort.

Clean and Low Maintenance

Because it doesn’t absorb water, rubber mulch doesn’t attract bugs or grow mold. There’s no need for watering, turning, or pest control. A quick rake or rinse is usually all it takes.

What is your rubber mulch made from?

Our rubber mulch is made from used tires that are cleaned, shredded, and processed into small pieces. The result is a durable, eco-friendly mulch option suitable for landscaping and playgrounds.

Here at Rubber Designs, we do NOT use whole-tire recycled rubber for our products, and for good reason! Whole-tire recycled rubber contains steel and shreds of fabric which can be harmful when incorporated into a playground setting. The fabric attracts mold and mildew and even from an aesthetic standpoint, typical whole-tire recycled rubber product loses color, stains clothes and hands. The extra care we take in the production of our recycled rubber products places us a cut above the rest.

Our recycled rubber buffing is taken from the outer layer of large commercial tires. By using only the outer layer, we keep all undesirable elements such as fragments of steel out of our product. This ensures product safety and produces a more uniform look and feel. As the tire is spun at a high speed, the outer layer is shredded off and collected, creating the soft and safe rubber buffing we use in our recycled rubber product offerings. With our unique, organic powder color coating combined with our formulated polymer, our colors won’t rub off or stain.
