Playground & Safety Turf

Kids need safe places to play. Whether it is your backyard, a school playground, or a daycare facility, the surface matters. At NexLawn Greenville Artificial Grass, we install playground safety turf that cushions falls, prevents injuries, and gives parents peace of mind. Your children deserve a soft, clean play area that stays safe in all weather conditions.

Traditional playground surfaces like wood chips scatter everywhere, attract bugs, and need constant replacement. Gravel hurts when kids fall. Natural grass turns to mud and gets worn down to dirt. Our playground safety turf solves all these problems while meeting safety standards for fall protection.

Why Safety Turf Protects Children

Playground safety turf is engineered specifically for impact absorption. When kids jump, run, or fall, the turf cushions them. We install padding underneath that meets ASTM safety standards for critical fall height. This means swings, slides, and climbing structures all have proper protection zones.

The turf itself is non-abrasive, so scrapes and rug burns are far less common than on other surfaces. It does not get slippery when wet like wood or tile. And unlike loose fill materials, children cannot throw it or put it in their mouths. The turf is also non-toxic and made without harmful chemicals.

Drainage is excellent, so puddles do not form after rain. Kids can play outside sooner, and the surface dries quickly. The turf also stays cooler than rubber surfaces in summer, making it more comfortable for bare feet and hands.

Where Playground Turf Works Best

We install safety turf in many different settings throughout Greenville:

• Backyard play areas and swing sets
• School playgrounds and recess zones
• Daycare and preschool outdoor spaces
• Church playgrounds and recreation areas
• Park playgrounds and public play spaces
• Apartment complex play areas
• Around pools as slip-resistant surfacing
• Sensory gardens and special needs play spaces

Each installation is customized for the equipment and age group using the space. We calculate the proper padding depth based on the height of play structures to ensure maximum safety.

Benefits Beyond Safety

Low Maintenance

Forget about raking wood chips or replacing loose materials. Safety turf stays in place. A quick sweep to remove leaves is all the maintenance you need. It never needs refilling or leveling like other playground surfaces.

Cleaner Play Environment

Wood chips and mulch track everywhere. Kids come inside covered in dirt and debris. Safety turf keeps children cleaner because there is nothing to stick to clothes or get in shoes. This is especially important for daycares and schools where children transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Accessible for All Children

Wheelchair users and children with mobility challenges can navigate playground turf easily. The firm, level surface accommodates walkers, wheelchairs, and other mobility devices. This inclusivity means every child can enjoy the playground together.
