Bounce
Control Interlocking Safety Surface is formulated with non-toxic
synthetic rubber for maximum resistance to sunlight and weather.
Bounce Control Interlocking Safety Surface has been used under
the most extreme weather conditions and has the same safety
cushioning characteristics in the summer's hot sun or
in the winter's damp and freezing temperatures. A special large
pebble grain surface pattern helps keep children sure-footed
even during wet and freezing weather. Bounce Control Interlocking

Bounce
Control Interlocking Safety Surface is designed with a special
interlock system which is actually hidden from view under 1/4"
rubber membrane. The interlock system, once engaged, is then sealed
together with "hogrings" to create a permanent installation.
The entire perimeter of the Bounce Control Interlocking Safety
Surface pad is sub-anchored in three places every 24" inches.
Each anchor comes with a soft rubber cover molded to it and is
adhered to the subsurface with a resin grout into 4" footings.
Tests have shown each anchor to withstand over three hundred pounds
of pull. A complete Bounce Control Interlocking Safety Surface
mat is virtually theft-proof and highly resistant to all forms
of vandalism. Each border and corner tile has a full 3" beveled
edge to create a trip-free transition from the play yard to the
safety pad. Bounce Control Interlocking Safety Surface has a life
expectancy in excess of ten years under normal usage and is virtually
maintenance free. |

Independent
Testing Proves Superiority |
Bounce Control Interlocking Safety Surface has been tested by
two independent national laboratories. Truesdail laboratories
tested Bounce Control Safety Surface for four consecutive
months before submitting their findings. These tests have shown
conclusive evidence that Bounce Control Interlocking Safety
Surface offers outstanding durability, resiliency and safety
characteristics. test results are available upon request from
the manufacturer. No Fall-Height protection level has been established
for this product. |
Unique
Shock Absorbing Construction |
The undersurface of each Bounce Control Interlocking Safety
Surface has a unique tapered rib construction which provides
144 air pockets per square foot. These ribs are designed to
partially collapse and seal the air in each pocket to produce
shock absorbing safety for both heavy and light children falling
from various heights. |

"Designed
To Prevent Serious Injury..." |
Bounce
Control Interlocking Safety Surface was designed specifically
to prevent serious injury to children falling from outdoor playground
apparatus. Bounce Control Interlocking Safety Surface tiles
are compression-molded to form a full one-and one-half inch
thick rubber mat with thousands of air cells and ribs to mechanically
absorb an cushion the shock of a child falling. Though no Fall-Height
protection level has been established for this product, in over
thirty years of usage on several million square feet installed
in the United States alone, billions of hours of play time have
been recorded, with not one reported serious head injury. |
