Frequently Asked Questions
Are these playground mats certified to BS EN 1177?
Yes. Our playground safety mats are tested and certified to BS EN 1177, the UK standard for playground surface impact attenuation. Each product listing specifies the Critical Fall Height (CFH) the mat protects against.
What Critical Fall Height do I need?
The required CFH depends on the height of your play equipment. A 1m CFH protects against falls from up to 1 metre. Check your equipment manufacturer's specifications and match accordingly. Our team can advise if unsure.
Can playground mats be installed on grass?
Yes. Playground safety mats can be laid directly on a firm, level grass surface. For best results, ensure the ground underneath is compacted and level to prevent rocking or gaps between tiles.
Are the tiles UV-resistant for outdoor use?
Yes. Our playground safety mats are manufactured from UV-stabilised rubber, making them suitable for year-round outdoor use in the UK climate without fading or brittleness.
How are the tiles joined together?
The tiles interlock using a tongue-and-groove or puzzle edge system for a stable, seamless surface. No adhesive or specialist tools are required for standard installations.
