How Artificial Grass Improves Playground Safety

Scott Marks

When it comes to your children, nothing is more important than their safety. When it comes to playground safety, the majority of injuries occur as a result of a fall on surfaces that are too hard or abrasive. There are many different playground surface options available, such as mulch, pea gravel, and rubber, but these options tend to fall short when it comes to consistent safety protection. These surfaces tend to become less safe as time goes by, and even less safe in areas with high foot traffic, such as under swings.

The SYNLawn® brand artificial grass we offer at Southeast Turf offers a variety of benefits to traditional playground infill, including:

  • Built-in safety: Padding installed underneath the grass makes for a soft playing surface
  • No grass stains: Kids will stay clean and out of trouble when it’s time to wash their clothes
  • Non-allergenic: Allergies caused by natural grass will no longer be an issue at home
  • Designed and tested to protect children from falls as high as 10-feet in accordance with IPEMA standards and CSA approved fall attenuation
  • Superior draining: With a drain rate of 30-inches an hour, you won’t have to worry about kids jumping into any puddles
  • Stable in every climate: Whether it’s winter, spring, summer or fall, your playground turf will look great

At Southeast Turf, we also offer a poured in place bonded rubber to go along with our artificial grass. When installed together, we ensure the transition from one surface to another is perfect and will easily accommodate those with disabilities. The best part of all that we provide is that they are virtually maintenance-free, meaning that you can spend more time doing the things you love with the people you love.

The Marks Family are true professionals. Answer calls/texts immediately. They treated my home like it was there own. They also hold their employees to the same standard. Clean and efficient, when they left it was like (other than the job) they were never there.

We can’t say enough about the great service and products from Southeast Turf! From the first meeting to the installation, they were great to deal with. Not to mention how awesome my yard looks. I think several of my neighbors are going to have it done as well because they too were impressed! Thank you!!

I had a small fenced in area off our patio that our dogs used. Southeast Turf installed artificial grass and it looks great. The team showed up on time and did a great job. They are booked out for a few months because they are in high demand. We love our new dog area. No more dirty dog feet, no more digging and no more smell!!

Turf installation at our beach home. Two large dogs with a small side yard creates challenges for potty time and maintaining your yard. They were able to solve this concern with turf installation that provides a safe area for our furbabies and a beautiful physical appearance as well. The installation was professionally handled and we are loving our new area!
