Playground Certified Mulch

Playground certified mulch is a specialized safety surfacing material designed specifically for use in play areas. Unlike standard mulch, this product is rigorously screened and processed to meet safety standards, ensuring it is free from sharp objects, large chunks, and contaminants. The certification guarantees that the mulch provides a cushioned, impact-absorbing surface, reducing the risk of injuries from falls.

This mulch is ideal for residential and commercial playgrounds, parks, and daycare centers, where child safety is a top priority. Its soft, fibrous texture offers excellent shock absorption, while also providing a natural, attractive appearance. Additionally, playground certified mulch is less likely to compact over time, maintaining its protective qualities longer than regular mulch. While it may require periodic replenishment to maintain proper depth, its safety benefits and compliance with industry standards make it the preferred choice for play environments.
