What Is Recycled Rubber Mulch Made Of?

Quite simply, used tires. They would otherwise be filling up our landfills, and instead are recycled to provide long-lasting products like rubber mulch. There are a number of steps involved, which break a used tire into smaller pieces, and remove the metal wires from all of those steel belted radials. Then the pieces are sealed and color tinted, using a special process which includes Microban anti-microbial agent, that provides years of beauty for landscaping and playground safety.

Environmental and Safety Benefits

The benefits to both the environment and playground safety are numerous. Every 12 lbs. used equals one tire less in our landfills.

PermaLife Landscape Mulch
As a landscape mulch, rubber mulch won't blow or wash away like wood mulch, because it's five times heavier. Rubber mulch also won't attract rodents and insects, nor fungus which may damage plant roots; plus it lasts for years, instead of losing 1/3 to 1/2 per year to deterioration, like wood mulch.

PermaLife SoftStuff and Pour&Play
PermaLife SoftStuff and Pour&Play provide the safest playground play surfacing available anywhere. With smaller particles to reduce choke hazards and Microban protection, there is no equal. It displaces when a child falls into it, with an incredible amount of retained air between particles to provide a natural bounce, unlike other surfaces. It's safe, non-toxic to pets and children, and a fraction of the cost of other playground safety surfaces like poured-in-place. The perfect alternative to other less desirable safety surfaces*, providing the best fall height protection and head impact (HIC) testing results at only 4" to 6" depths for residential applications and 6" for public playgrounds.

Additionally, both PermaLife SoftStuff and Pour&Play are 100% free from all exposed wires, going through an up to 7-stage screening process, making it safer than any other playground surface.

*Sand is often a haven for potential pathogens from pet and feral animal feces. Wood chips cause splinters and attract unwanted insects, rodents, termites, fungus, and erode at a rate of 1/3 per year. Pour-in-place costs 2-3x more, not as safe a surface, and doesn't last as long.

Applications for Landscaping and Playground Safety

PermaLife Landscape Mulch
Rubber mulch for landscaping is best applied at a depth of approx. 2", to adequately cover the bare earth, maintaining soil moisture around plants and reducing water consumption.

PermaLife Residential & Playground Safety Surfacing
Maintaining safety for children's playground structures is a major concern, and most playgrounds in America do not provide the required surfacing to avoid injuries. Where many types of surfaces requires up to 12" thickness, they still fail to provide the level of safety that recycled rubber mulch offers with only 4" to 6" depth (depending on residential or playground equipment fall height). We'll be happy to provide detailed information as to how to specify the best playground safety sufacing available, at competitive prices.
