  1. Child’s Play SBR “Poured-in-Place” Safety Surfaces www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  2. Safety • 70% of playground injuries are fall related! (source: CPSC) • Child's Play SBR surfaces exceed current standards for impact attenuation by up to 15% • Child's Play surfaces provide year-round resilience delivering safety and access to a play area, while reducing liability www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  3. Compliance • Child's Play meets the accessibility and safety guidelines established by the American's with Disabilities Act (ADA) • Child's Play meets U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) safety guidelines • Tested for impact and shock absorbing properties in accordance with ASTM F1292-99 www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  4. Economy/Versatility • SBR custom surfaces (comprised of 100% recycled rubber tires and pigmented binders). Savings of up to 30%! • EPDM custom surfaces www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  5. Performance/Guarantee • Full 3 year guarantee against delamination, cracking, wear through, loss of resilience, and base settlement or failure • Child’s Play has over 10 years experience in surfacing systems www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  6. Industry Standards for Safety Surfacing ASTM F-1292 Industry Standard Child's Play • gMax - max. allowable impact 200 gMax 175gMax • HIC - meas. - Head Injury Criteria 1000 HIC 975 HIC • Warranty 6 to 12 months. 3 years • Base warranty none 3 years • Environmental concerns no yes • Surface thickness 1/4" to 3/8” 1/2" to 3/4” • Surface binder content 20% 25% www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  7. “PIP” Advantages • Low maintenance… • Year-round use… • Does not freeze… • Water permeable… • Environmentally conscious… • Permanent… • No foreign contamination… www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  8. “PIP” Disadvantages • Initial price vs. sand, wood fiber, pea-gravel www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  9. “Poured-in-Place” Cost? • EPDM= premium cost Encapsulated with clear binders,colorEPDM can increase the cost of a surface by up to $4.00/ft2 • SBR= economical Child’s Play SBR is encapsulated with colored binder • PIP = ALL WEATHER fall protection, reducing liability www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  10. Environmental Benefits • SBR surfaces contain 100% recycled rubber particles • EPDM surfaces use recycled rubber particles in the base mat only • Polyurethane binders and unique and proprietary conversion methods allow reuse and recycle most existing bases within a playground, including sand and pea gravel www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  11. Discoloration? • In 99% of cases, the binder used to coat EPDM crumb rubber will yellow shortly after being installed • With exposure to UV light, EPDM granules oxidize and develop a thin white film • Child’s Play SBR is encapsulated with colored binder www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  12. Why Child’s Play SBR? • Designing surfacing systems with EPDM granules and extensive pattern and color choices can make the cost of a poured-in-place surface prohibitive • Child’s Play SBR surface colors are terra cotta and forest green, which are soft, earthy, natural colors www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  13. Why Child’s Play SBR? • Child’s Play systems are engineered for performance, economy, and aesthetics • Pigmented binders are specifically designed for playgrounds with added elongation and elasticity • Pigmented binders add color to a surface and greatly reduces the degradation from ultraviolet light www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  14. Why Child’s Play SBR? • SBR surface is tough to tear • SBR surface is much smoother than a granulated surface • We use strand rubber particles that offer superior resilience and strength • We install a 1/2" surface thickness • More resistance to tearing and cracking • Load distribution to the base www.childsplaysurfaces.com

  15. Grants and Funding • DOLA - Colorado Department of Local Affairs. Funds for counties, municipalities, special districts (including school districts), and state agencies. Incentive to purchase products that contain recycled or reused Colorado waste tires • GOCO - Great Outdoors Colorado. Funds to local governments. Grants and mini-grants for construction of playgrounds and sports fields. • Others? - Qualistar, El Pomar... www.childsplaysurfaces.com
