Your core challenge isn't just choosing a material—it's finding a system that delivers certified safety for a predictable, lower total cost of ownership.
See the Cost-Effective Solution →Modern, pile-height-specific artificial grass, paired with a proper shock-absorbent pad, is the definitive answer for commercial and municipal playgrounds. Here’s how XY Grass’s playground ground cover systems solve your core problems:
| Parameter | Specification | Benefit for You |
|---|---|---|
| Face Fiber | PE (Polyethylene) / Dual-Polymer Blend | Soft feel, high resilience, non-abrasive |
| Pile Height | 30mm - 60mm (Customizable) | Determines safety cushioning & CFH rating |
| Density | 16,800 - 21,000 stitches/m² | Dense pile for durability & consistent impact absorption |
| Backing | 2-Layer PP + SBR Latex Coating | Dimensional stability, prevents delamination | Shock Pad (Separate) | EPDM or TPE Rubber, 15mm-40mm Thick | Provides critical fall height protection (ASTM F1292) |
| Drainage Rate | >60 liters/min/m² | Quick drying, all-weather use |
| UV Resistance | ≥8 Years Limited Warranty | Long-term color fastness, reduces replacement cycles |
| Fire Rating | Class 1 (Available) | Meets stringent public space safety codes |
| Compliance | ASTM F1292, EN 1177, RoHS, SGS | Globally recognized safety & environmental standards |

Our playground ground cover ideas are deployed in diverse settings:
