Highlighted below is some general information I thought you may need <br />for your projects. <br /> <br />ART developed RubberStuff@ because playgrounds can be dangerous places. In fact, the Consumer Product <br />Safety Commission (CPSC) stated that ''protective surfacing for playgrounds is the most critical safety factor <br />because approximately 75% of children's injuries are caused by falls." RubberStuff@ provides that soft <br />landing pad for kids. In fact, it exceeds CPSC guidelines for safety and resiliency. The United States Testing <br />Company did outside testing on shock absorption, oral ingestion, toxicity and flammability and RubberStuff@ <br />exceeded all standards. <br /> <br />This loose~fill material creates a surface air cushion that will actually absorb impact and rebound quickly. It <br />is heavier than water therefore it won't blow or wash away. Maintenance is also easy. RubberStuff@ can be <br />leveled with a common yard rake, and washed by simply hosing it off. It drains so well that even after a hard <br />rain it is usually ready for play in less than 30 minutes! The specs for RubberStuff@ are: <br /> <br />RubberStuff SPECIFICATIONS: <br /> <br />.
