Play Surfacing for Schools Halstead

Safe, Durable, and Designed for Play

At Edspace, we understand that a Halstead school playground is more than just a place to play—it's where friendships are formed, imaginations run wild, and children develop essential physical and social skills. That’s why we offer a comprehensive range of playground surfacing solutions designed to create safe, stimulating, and long-lasting outdoor environments.

Our Play Surfacing for Halstead Schools includes:

Wet Pour Rubber Surfacing – ideal for areas requiring high impact absorption and vibrant, customisable designs.

Artificial Grass – a soft, natural-looking surface that stays green all year round with minimal maintenance.

Bound Rubber Mulch (Forest Floor) – a natural aesthetic with excellent shock absorption, perfect for eco-conscious schools.

Safety is at the heart of everything we do

Our surfacing options are engineered to reduce the risk of injury from trips and falls, while withstanding the demands of daily use by active Halstead children. Whether you're upgrading a playground, creating a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA), or designing a new activity zone, we’ll help you choose the right surface to meet your needs, budget, and space.

Choosing the right playground surface can feel overwhelming, but our expert team is here to guide you every step of the way—from initial consultation to professional installation. With Edspace, you can be confident that your outdoor spaces are not only safe and durable, but also inspiring and fun.

Meeting Critical Fall Height Standards

Accidents may happen, but Edspace playground surfaces are installed at the correct depths to suit the fall height requirements of the play equipment they surround.

Minimal Maintenance

With artificial grass, there’s no need for mowing, saving your facility team precious time and resources. Our wet pour surfaces are low maintenance, requiring only periodic sweeping to clear leaves and debris. A simple, low-pressure washer can keep the porous surface grime-free and looking like new.

Prioritising Safety

At Edspace, safety is our top concern. Our seamless wet pour system eliminates trip hazards, and the porous surface efficiently drains rainwater, preventing pooling. Our forest floor mulch and wet pour solutions provide outstanding impact-absorbing qualities, ensuring your children’s safety during play.
