ECO-SOFT

Safety Tiles for Playgrounds Compliant with EN 1177

Recycled rubber product family for playgrounds, anti-trauma flooring EN1177

ECO-SOFT is a recycled rubber anti-trauma flooring designed to make children’s play spaces safer and more fun. It is ideal for public parks, playgrounds, schools, and all places where it is important to cushion the impact in case of falls from playground equipment.
ECO-SOFT tiles are made from SBR rubber granule sourced mainly from discarded tires, with a grain size between 2 and 4 mm. The surface is draining and non-slip, designed to dry quickly even after rain.
ECO-SOFT complies with the EN 1177 standard, which establishes the safety requirements for impact-absorbing flooring, and with the EN 71-3 standard, related to the chemical safety of materials intended for children. Upon request, it can be supplied with REMADE® certification, useful for public tenders and for compliance with Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM).

Features

ECO-SOFT tiles are available in thicknesses from 30 to 100 mm, each of which corresponds to a specific critical fall height (HIC) according to EN 1177.
There are three sizes available: 500×500 mm, 500×1000 mm and 1000×1000 mm, in both square and rectangular versions. This variety makes it easy to adapt the flooring to any space, large or small.
The texture is highly draining and ensures fast drying. Tiles can be laid in a countertop or flush with the floor. For ramps and edges, ECO-SOFT RAMP accessories are available.
