Breakthrough Surfacing
Of all the play safety surfaces available, only ours combine the benefits of design, technology and safety into a revolutionary, high-performance solution: the PebbleFlex® and AquaFlex® systems. They are quite simply the best playground, water play and poolside surfacing systems in the world.
Unlike traditional poured-in-place surfacing, PebbleFlex and AquaFlex utilize an advanced bond-in-place technology where millions of pebbles bond together to create unparalleled surfaces that stand up to the demands of weather extremes and active use. They are seamless, resilient surfaces designed for endless play.
It's All About Chemistry
PebbleFlex and AquaFlex are composed of tiny spherical polyurethane pebbles that are highly abrasion resistant and more UV stable than any other surfacing. The pebbles are aliphatic, meaning the atoms form open chains that make a strong connection. They are then bonded together with a clear, flexible, two-part aliphatic polyurethane binder — an exclusive process that is significantly stronger than typical non-bonded rubber granule surfacing.
Uncompromising Safety
With PebbleFlex and AquaFlex skid-resistant surfacing, safety and play go hand-in-hand. Plus, PebbleFlex is tested to accommodate fall heights of up to and including 12 feet, and meets all safety and accessibility standards. This high-impact attenuation results from a 1-1/8" layer of recycled synthetic rubber and a layer of recycled closed-cell foam. The thickness of the foam varies depending upon the fall height requirements.
Durable
In high-use areas, such as under swings and slides, a proprietary, clear aliphatic polyurethane grout is applied to the surface to offer even more abrasion resistance.
Maintainable
The surfaces withstand detergent cleaning solutions and sustain power-washing of up to 2,800 psi. With a higher cleaning tolerance and longer life, both PebbleFlex and AquaFlex dramatically reduce maintenance time and costs while also extending the original look and feel.
Long Life
With a high-impact attenuation resulting from cushioned layers of recycled rubber and foam, the life of PebbleFlex surfacing is extended well beyond other poured-in-place surfaces. The recycled rubber and foam combination allows for natural expansion and contraction and is water permeable. This is truly a one-of-a-kind surfacing solution.
Easy to Install
PebbleFlex will be installed by a certified PebbleFlex installer without costly demolition beforehand. These surfaces will cover just about anything including concrete, asphalt and crushed stone aggregate.
