Overview

A surface kids can play on all year.

Schools and play areas need a surface that’s economical, sturdy, safe, and looks great every day, without the constant maintenance a natural field demands. Our synthetic turf handles heavy daily use across multiple sports and activities, so playtime and PE never get cancelled for field damage or muddy conditions.

For playgrounds, we install turf over cushioned, impact-absorbing padding for added fall protection, a clean, non-toxic, allergy-free surface that lets kids explore and play safely.

The specs behind a play surface

A play surface is a system, and the pad under it does the safety work

The safety comes from a shock pad rated to a critical fall height under ASTM F1292, sized to the tallest piece of equipment on the site, with the rating handed to you in writing.

Before You Start

Questions schools and playgrounds customers ask

Does playground turf meet fall-safety standards?

Yes, when it is built for it. We install over a shock pad rated to a fall height so the surface meets ASTM impact standards for the equipment on it. Tell us the tallest play structure and we spec the pad to match. Plain turf over dirt does not pass, the pad is what does the work.

Is it safe if kids fall or slide on it?

It is softer and more forgiving than concrete, decomposed granite, or worn wood chips, and there is nothing to scatter or hide sharp objects in. The blades are non-abrasive, and the infill we use for play areas is chosen to stay cooler and cleaner than crumb rubber.

How hot does it get in the Arizona sun?

Turf warms in direct summer sun like any surface. For play areas we use a lighter-colored infill and can spec cooling additives, but shade is the real answer, so we often pair installs with a sail or ramada. A quick rinse drops the temperature fast on the hottest days.

Can it handle heavy daily use?

That is what commercial play turf is made for. It uses a tougher blade and backing than a backyard lawn and drains fast, so it is usable right after a storm. Schools and parks run it every day for years. We match the product grade to the traffic you expect.

How do you keep it clean and sanitary?

It rinses clean, drains through, and we can apply an antimicrobial treatment for high-use areas. No mud, no bare dirt patches, no standing water for pests. Routine care is brushing and the occasional rinse, far less than mowing and reseeding a natural field.
