Soft Commercial Playground Flooring
Safe, long-lasting, virtually maintenance-free.
Commercial playground flooring comes with a variety of options. But when it comes to recreation surfaces, durability is second only to safety. Our poured-in-place rubber playground surfacing is our most durable, permanent surface option—making it safe, long-lasting, and virtually maintenance free! Sometimes called “wet pour rubber flooring”, “rubberized playground surfacing”, “safety flooring for playgrounds”, or “playground base”, it can be installed when a playground is being built or for an existing playground. Unlike rubber playground safety tiles, poured playground surfaces are seamless.
Poured-in-Place rubber playground surface, customized for your play space.
The rubber playground surface material we use is also highly-customizable for depth, color, shape, and design. The pour-in-place (PIP) method allows us to install a recreational flooring surface that is not only safe (it’s a soft playground surface, which is why some people refer to it as a “playground foam surface”) and durable, but also practically limitless in design options. Because the components are mixed and applied on site, school colors, logos, games and/or geometric shapes can be permanently incorporated into the surface allowing for a visually appealing and even functional rubber surface design.
We also offer playground resurfacing services for existing playgrounds that are looking to replace the wood/rubber mulch or other surfaces.

Installing Poured Rubber Playground Surfacing
You’re planning to install a new playground or redo an existing one. Or, you need rubber safety surfacing installed elsewhere (such as a pool deck or splash park).
Many companies will sell you the rubber flooring supplies, but you’re stuck with two options:
- Spend the time and hassle of doing it yourself, or…
- Overpay the playground builder or general contractor to install the flooring
There’s an easier way.

Installation Process
After the components are mixed, advetureTURF experts “pour” the mixture over the prepared surface. Then the mixture is spread out and leveled. Finally they trowel the surface smooth.
The surface is left to dry and set in place.
Mixing Process
During the poured rubber surface mixing process rubber granules are added to a mixing machine along with the adhesive compound.
Once the granules and adhesive are mixed they are transferred to a wheelbarrow to “pour” on to the playground surface.

Poured in place surfacing can be installed in a variety of different ways to meet different budgets. The best way to save on the materials and installation cost is to use a 50/50 color/black mix. The colored rubber is still dominant in appearance. Believe it or not, the colored rubber is the most expensive portion of the cost of installation. We are happy to help our customers find ways to achieve the look they desire and save money in the process. Check out our playground installation project gallery, which includes mostly 50/50 black/color installs. This will give you an idea of what your project could look like utilizing a 50/50 color/black mix.
Poured rubber surfacing is a safe, durable and excellent flooring choice for most playgrounds and swimming pool surrounds (also called “rubber pool coping”), but if your surface area is less than 1000 sq. ft. it may not be the most cost-effective option for smaller playgrounds and pools. Sometimes the size of the playground or pool patio is the determining factor in the type of material that is ultimately chosen for the flooring surface. Read more…
