Playground Surfacing
Surfacing under playground equipment is a problem because 79% of all injuries are due to a lack of appropriate surfacing or children falling off onto the ground. We cannot eliminate all injuries, but we need to be trying to reduce serious head injuries. We’re still going to have some long bone fractures, we’re going to have some dislocations. And if you think about being at the top of a high slide and falling off, we want to be sure that there is surfacing of a sufficient depth to prevent head injuries.
