Wetpour Resin Rubber Playground Surfacing: A Safe and Colourful Choice for Modern Playgrounds
Creating a safe, engaging and long-lasting outdoor play environment is essential for schools, nurseries, and public parks. One of the most popular solutions today is wetpour resin rubber playground surfacing—a seamless, impact-absorbing surface designed to protect children while also offering vibrant, creative design options.
At Redlynch Leisure, we specialise in the supply and installation of wetpour surfacing across the UK. Our recent Sussex school redevelopment project is a great example of what this versatile material can achieve.
What Is Wetpour Resin Rubber Surfacing?
Wetpour is a two-layer system made from rubber granules bound together with a high-quality resin. The base layer, typically made from recycled rubber (SBR), provides impact absorption, while the top layer (EPDM) offers a colourful, durable finish. The result is a poured-in-place safety surface that can be tailored to meet the critical fall height requirements of playground equipment.
Why Choose Wetpour for Your Playground?
- Safety First: Wetpour is designed to cushion falls and reduce injury risk, making it ideal for schools and play areas with climbing frames, slides or trim trails.
- Durability: Once installed, wetpour offers long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance, even under heavy footfall or harsh weather conditions.
- Creative Freedom: With a wide range of colours and the ability to add fun graphics, games or themed zones, wetpour can transform any outdoor space into an exciting and inclusive play environment.
- Accessibility: Its smooth, seamless surface is wheelchair- and pushchair-friendly, supporting accessible play for all.
Sussex School Playground Redevelopment – A Case Study
One of our standout projects involved the complete redevelopment of an outdoor space for a primary school in Sussex. The brief was to transform a worn and outdated play area into a modern, inclusive space that would inspire creativity and active play.
Using wetpour surfacing in a vibrant mix of colours, we created distinct play zones, visually stimulated the environment, and met all safety standards. You can see the full details and photos of this project here:
