Childcare Centre Safety Surfacing - preserve your Synthetic Grass with CombiFlex

CombiFlex® Projects – Childcare Centre Playgrounds

Project: Children’s play area in Child Care Centre Brisbane

Requirement: Drainage and Critical fall height –  reduced surface heat, longer life of artificial grass, good drainage and reduced playground injuries.

Solution: CombiFlex® + CombiMesh under  artificial grass in Child Care Centre.

CombiFlex® provides critical fall height in children’s playgrounds.For an equivalent level of critical fall height CombiFlex weighs approximately 12% of the equivalent SBR.

Volatile Organic Compound (VOC)  binder/adhesive additives are not present in CombiFlex®.

Reduced wear and reduced injuries with CombiFlex® and artificial grass

With expected changes in playground standards requiring critical fall height testing annually, CombiFlex® offers a durable long term solution for reliable critical fall height surfacing with a 5 year warranty. CombiFlex® sites have had consistent ASNZ422:2016 critical fall height results without deterioration or erosion.

CombiFlex® is made from a high impact  polypropylene copolymer and provides excellent critical fall height in children’s playgrounds. Play areas using just wet pour materials ( ie not using wetpour over CombiFlex® ) have varying reductions of critical fall height over time as the surface compacts and wears down. This results in safety reduction, ongoing maintenance and frequent replacement.

CombiFlex® requires minimal adhesive and is not impacted by the current global adhesive shortage, longer life and dryer surfaces given the drainage functionality.

NEW COMBITILE SPLASH PAD INSTALLATION AT COUNCIL WATER PARK

CombiTile has recently installed CombiLock® over CombiFlex® at a regional council splash pad.  The  council required splash pad safety and required a water management solution for this barefoot playground. Combitile was able to address Critical Fall Height standards and reduced water consumption.

CombiLock over CombiFlex provides 2.5 metres Critical Fall Height whilst the drainage cell of CombiLock reduces water loss by 30%. Playground fall height safety is a key concern of councils  as is splash pad maintenance – Combitile is a long term replacement for traditional pour in place (EPDM) options which require regular replacement due to their lack of chlorine and UV resistance.

CombiTile provide a 5 year product warranty and is not reliant on adhesives.  There is  a global shortage of adhesives which is impacting the Aquatic and Splash Pad industry significantly.

CombiTile is a key strategic partner for inclusiveness as many splash parks are designed with a zero-depth entry, enabling people with mobility impairments to use the same entrance as other visitors. The lack of pooling water also encourages people of all ages and abilities to experience the fun.
