Consumer information sheet for playground surfacing
materials
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that about 100 000 playground
equipment related injuries resulting from falls to the ground surface are treated annually in
U.S. hospital emergency rooms. Injuries involving this hazard pattern tend to be among the
most serious of all playground injuries, and have the potential to be fatal, particularly when the
injury is to the head. The surface under and around playground equipment can be a major factor
in determining the injury-causing potential of a fall. It is self evident that a fall onto a shock
absorbing surface is less likely to cause a serious injury than a fall onto a hard surface.
Playground equipment should never be placed on hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt and
while grass may appear to be acceptable it may quickly turn to hard packed earth in areas of high
traffic. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, fine sand or fine gravel are considered to be acceptable
shock absorbing surfaces when installed and maintained at a sufficient depth under and around
playground equipment.
X3.1 Select Protective Surfacing - One of the most important things you can do to reduce the
likelihood of serious head injuries is to install shock-absorbing protective surfacing under and
around your play equipment. The protective surfacing should be applied to a depth that is suitable
for the equipment height in accordance with ASTM Specification F 1292. There are different types of
surfacing to choose from; whichever product you select, follow these guidelines:
X3.1.1 Loose-Fill Materials:
X3.1.1.1 Maintain a minimum depth of 9 inches of loose fill materials such as wood mulch/chips,
engineered wood fiber (EWF), or shredded/recycled rubber mulch for equipment up to 8 feet high;
and 9 inches of sand or pea gravel for equipment up to 5 feet high. NOTE: An initial fill level of
12 inches will compress to about a 9- inch depth of surfacing over time. The surfacing will also
compact, displace, and settle, and should be periodically refilled to maintain at least a 9-inch
depth.
X3.1.2 Use a minimum of 6 inches of protective surfacing for play equipment less than 4 feet
in height. If maintained properly, this should be adequate. (At depths less than 6 inches, the
protective material is too easily displaced or compacted.)
NOTE: Do not install home playground equipment over concrete, asphalt, or any other hard
surface. A fall onto a hard surface can result in serious injury to the equipment user. Grass
and dirt are not considered protective surfacing because wear and environmental factors can
reduce their shock absorbing effectiveness. Carpeting and thin mats are generally not adequate
protective surfacing. Ground level equipment – such as a sandbox, activity wall, playhouse or other
equipment that has no elevated play surface – does not need any protective surfacing.
X3.1.3 Use containment, such as digging out around the perimeter and/or lining the perimeter
with landscape edging. Don't forget to account for water drainage.
X3.1.3.1 Check and maintain the depth of the loose-fill surfacing material. To maintain the right
amount of loose- fill materials, mark the correct level on play equipment support posts. That
way you can easily see when to replenish and/or redistribute the surfacing.
X3.1.3.2 Do not install loose fill surfacing over hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt.
X3.1.4 Poured-In-Place Surfaces or Pre-Manufactured Rubber Tiles - You may be interested in
using surfacing other than loose-fill materials – like rubber tiles or poured-in-place surfaces.
X3.1.4.1 Installations of these surfaces generally require a professional and are not "do-it-
yourself" projects.
X3.1.4.2 Review surface specifications before purchasing this type of surfacing. Ask the installer/
manufacturer for a report showing that the product has been tested to the following safety
2m
standard: ASTM F 1292 Standard Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surfacing Materials within

the Use Zone of Playground Equipment. This report should show the specific height for which the
surface is intended to protect against serious head injury. This height should be equal to or greater
than the fall height – vertical distance between a designated play surface (elevated surface for
standing, sitting, or climbing) and the protective surfacing below – of your play equipment.
X3.1.4.3 Check the protective surfacing frequently for wear.
X3.1.5 Placement - Proper placement and maintenance of protective surfacing is essential. Be
sure to:
