Additional Information
The Safest, Most Durable Artificial Playground Turf for Children, Schools, Parks, and Families

For the children who play on it every day, Play Platinum is simply the best playground surface available, soft and forgiving underfoot, consistent and level in every direction, and free of the hard edges, uneven surfaces, and abrasive materials that cause the scrapes, trips, and impact injuries that parents dread and facility managers work tirelessly to prevent. Active children run, jump, roll, and fall on playground surfaces with a frequency and intensity that no other application demands, and Play Platinum is built specifically to absorb that energy and protect the children generating it. Its soft, non-abrasive fiber construction is gentle against skin during falls and active contact, reducing the skin irritation and impact injuries that harder playground surfaces cause, while a consistently level, low-profile blade construction eliminates the uneven terrain that trips children up on traditional playground materials. Super Drain+™ Technology keeps the surface dry and safely accessible immediately after rain, so children never have to wait for the playground to dry out before they can get back to playing, and parents never have to worry about the slippery, hazardous conditions that wet playground surfaces create.

For school district supervisors, parks and recreation managers, playground architects, and the parents who advocate for the safety of their communities, Play Platinum provides something equally valuable, complete, documented, independently verified confidence in the surface their children use every single day. IPEMA certified for impact absorption and injury prevention, ASTM E108 Class A Fire Rated, and certified free of heavy metals, it carries the most comprehensive safety credential set available for an artificial playground surface, giving decision-makers the defensible, institutionally credible specification they need to protect both the children in their care and the organizations responsible for them. USDA Certified Bio-Based construction and non-toxic, lead-free materials reassure parents and communities that children are playing on a sustainable, environmentally responsible surface. And with zero mowing, zero watering, zero chemical treatments, and zero infill replenishment required, facility managers and property owners get a surface that delivers its certified safety performance and natural beauty every single day without the ongoing maintenance burden that natural grass and lesser synthetic surfaces demand.
