The installation of outdoor EPDM playground flooring is an important step in ensuring the safety of children and the durability of play equipment. The following are some points to note about the installation of outdoor EPDM playground floor:
Preparation
Before starting installation, make sure the ground is level, dry, and clear of any sharp objects, debris, or obstructions to prevent future unevenness.
Base layer
The base layer of the floor should be solid, and a concrete or gravel foundation can be considered to ensure the stability and durability of the floor.
Substrate material selection
Choosing the proper base material is crucial, and EPDM flooring usually requires a proper cushioning layer, such as rubber particle filler, to provide better impact absorption and reduce the risk of falls.
Correct installation method
Follow the installation guidelines provided by the manufacturer to ensure the floor is laid correctly and follow the recommended adhesive and jointing methods to ensure a tight joint and durability of the floor.
Drainage and Permeability
Make sure floors have proper drainage and permeability to prevent water accumulation and moisture build-up, thereby reducing the risk of slips and slides.
Edges and transition areas
Use suitable edge materials in the edge and transition areas of the floor to prevent fraying of the edge of the floor and provide a better visual effect.
Regular maintenance
After installation, regularly inspect the condition of the floor and promptly repair worn or damaged areas to maintain the integrity and safety of the floor.
Standards compliant
Make sure all the EPDM particles and SBR produced by our factory are select ed, which meet the national and international safety standards to ensure children's safety when playing in the playground.
In short, the installation of outdoor EPDM playground floor needs to comprehensively consider the ground preparation, material selection, correct installation method and subsequent maintenance work. By strictly following the manufacturer's recommendations and standards, you can create a safe, comfortable and long-lasting play environment for your children.
