MULCH
We deliver itMulch (Playground)
Playground mulch is a specialized type of mulch designed specifically for use in play areas and recreational spaces. Unlike standard landscaping mulch, playground mulch is typically made from processed wood fibers or engineered wood chips that are screened and tested to meet safety standards for impact absorption. This ensures a softer, more cushioned surface that helps reduce the risk of injuries from falls.
