Beveled-Top Swing & Slide Wear Mat

Add that extra bit of cushion on the playground with the Beveled-Top Swing & Slide Wear Mat. Loose fill surfacing, such as wood and rubber mulch, are significantly cheaper than unitary surfacing like poured-in-place rubber and artificial turf. However, one of the biggest draw-backs is that they suffer from the material thinning out in high traffic areas. This is often referred to as "kick-out". When the material is not as deep as is recommended, the safety surfacing no longer functions to protect those using the equipment. An effective solution is a mat. Simply put the mat in areas where the kick-out is most likely to happen or has already occurred. With the addition of the beveled edge, the mat slips under the mulch creating a smoother transition between loose-fill and the mat.
