This rubber mat for swing sets is made from reclaimed and natural rubber materials. Reclaimed rubber is made from recycled tires and other discarded rubber products which is then vulcanized to make for new tire derived products like this rubber swing set mat. Since the mats are made from tires, they inherit the great UV and weathering qualities of the recycled tires. Since tires contain anti-aging ingredients known as antiozonants that helps tires stay soft, flexible, UV and weather resistant. An antiozonant is an organic compound that prevents or slows damage caused by ozone. It is these antiozonants that remain in a rubber swing mat produced from rubber tires that give the rubber mat long life even when used outdoors.
What is floor surface abrasion in playgrounds? Scrapes (i.e., abrasions) are surface wounds where the floor surface has been rubbed or scrubbed off. In playground swing areas most scrapes do not go deep into the ground surface, but some may remove several layers, whether it be a rubber floor or a grass patch. This can cause aesthetic concerns which can also lead wounded floor areas into getting larger and not having time to recover. A simple and affordable rubber swing set mat can protect the floors and cover up blemishes. This will safeguard the floors from further damage as well.
A rubber swing set mat is a marking that provides information that is useful to the person using the playground during takeoff and landing. Uniformity by having a swing set rubber mat (i.e., sign) from one swing to another enhances safety and improves the safe use of the facilities. This way the users are encouraged and pointed to proper landing areas and this will discourage stopping earlier or later in the swing motion, both of which can be problematic. Playground mats for under swings can help those using the play area abide by practices that maintain the safe use of the play area.

Why A Swing Set Mat? | Swings are a popular piece of a playground equipment. Kids learn to generate the swing’s power by “pumping” a swing or thrusting their legs. The playground swing is a type of pendulum and is empowered by the legs and is stopped by the legs & feet. Bringing the swing to a stop generally causes abrasions on the surface of the playground floor. This creates patchy landscaping and scarred playground flooring. Swing set rubber mats are the perfect way to protect the swing areas with an inexpensive layer of protection. Rubber swing mats are far more affordable than continuously updating your playground floors. |
Diamond-Grip: | This rubber mat for under swing areas features a diamond-grip surface texture, enhancing the foot-traffics traction. Surface textures are used to intentionally increase traction on rubber mats. And this diamond surface texture helps in increasing footing in otherwise problematic playground areas. |
