PLAYGROUND SOFTFALL RANGE

Category:Playground Softfall Range

At the request of one of our longstanding customers, we first supplied a tested softfall product in 2010. Going back 15 years there was no testing option in Western Australia so we sent a sample to Sydney. The testing was unable to achieve a fail and we got some great results for our first softfall option. We have continued to be a preferred supplier into schools, day-care centres and public playgrounds.

We test a representative sample regularly and continue to monitor production. To comply with Australian Standards, Softfall needs to be installed at 300mm deep and regularly maintained.

Softfall testing to Australian Standards aims to reduce the risk of life-threatening types of injuries. “Softfall” does not refer to how soft a product is underfoot. Please talk to us at the time of order for best choice for your application and consider visiting our yard to inspect and take a sample. For the retail customer we are always happy to welcome you to our site by appointment and answer any questions you have.

Crushed Softfall Chip is made to order and can be supplied in quantities suitable for schools, POS playgrounds and day care centres.

Product options are –

Softfall Chip (Pine)

Category:Playground Softfall Range Tags : 

Softfall Chip (Pine) is a crushed softwood and is a light creamy white in colour. The product is unscreened which may lead to the occasional full size chip being found. Most of the processed product would fit through a 12mm screen. This product has been popular for playgrounds with younger children as can give a slightly cleaner result after play than the hardwood product.

Softfall Pine is made to order but readily available. Please check in with us for availability at the time of order.
