The WARCO playground safety mat with grid structure combines certified fall protection with natural surface design for play and leisure areas. Its open grid resembles a grate and allows permanent greening of the surface, while the PU-bonded rubber granulate provides elasticity, shock absorption and dependable safety. Unlike an unreinforced grass surface, the grass in the grid mat is not worn down even in wet conditions – assuming correct installation – and muddy areas do not form.

Applications

The mat is designed for extensively used play and leisure areas where a natural, green surface is preferred. Typical uses include playgrounds, play lawns, event areas as well as slopes and embankments that need extra stabilisation.

Material & structure

Made from PU-bonded rubber granulate, the mats are elastic, slip-resistant and durable. Each mat measures 100 × 50 cm and is available in thicknesses of 4.5 cm, 6.5 cm and 8 cm. The open grid must be filled at least halfway with substrate. Grass or other vegetation then grows through the openings, ensuring the surface stays green, biologically active and usable in all weather conditions.

Connection & installation

Installation is loose-laid on a suitable load-bearing base. Integrated hook connectors interlock the mats to form a stable surface. Staggered bond installation increases stability and creates an attractive joint pattern.

Properties & benefits

The thicker the mat, the greater the shock absorption and fall protection. The open grid design ensures the surface is fully permeable: rainwater seeps naturally into the ground, avoiding surface sealing. The textured rubber surface is slip-resistant and resilient, even when wet. The area remains safe and functional in both dry and rainy weather.

Maintenance & economy

A properly installed surface of playground safety mats with grid structure can be maintained like a regular lawn – by mowing or even grazing. Thanks to the modular system, individual mats can be replaced if necessary. Simple installation and the combination of fall protection with natural greening make the system a sustainable and cost-efficient solution.

Selected colour Grass Green

Grass Green is a fresh, vibrant shade of green that resembles the natural colour of grass. This colour is achieved by using a coloured binder to coat the ELT particles (black rubber granules from scrap tyre recycling). Grass Green is a natural, soothing colour that is ideal for use in gardens, playgrounds or recreational areas. It gives any surface a fresh, natural look and blends well with other colours to create a harmonious and inviting atmosphere. The colour coating will fade over time.

Material – Components and Structure

The product consists of black rubber granules and a polyurethane binder. The rubber granules used come from the recycling of used tyres, which is why they are called ELT (End of Life Tyres) granules. This origin gives the granulate its typical black or anthracite colour. Chemically, ELT is a blend of natural rubber (NR) and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR). A colourless binder is used for the anthracite products, while a coloured binder is used for the coloured variants, giving the black granules a coloured coating.

Installation – Processing – Assembly

Each side of the grid mat has a number of rubber granule hooks that engage with the corresponding recesses in the adjacent mat during installation. This system securely connects the individual grid mats, creating a stable and cohesive surface. The mats are laid directly onto a prepared sub-base, known as a planum. Once installed, they can be filled to half their height with substrate before a permanent lawn is seeded, further stabilising the surface.

Apparent density - scale value 2 = 780 to 840 kg/m³

2 / 5

The apparent density of a material describes the ratio of its mass to its total volume, including all pores, cavities, and air inclusions. For WARCO products, this value typically ranges between 600 and 1250 kg/m³. To clearly present the apparent density of a specific product, WARCO uses a scale from 1 to 5, with each scale value corresponding to a specific density range. For example, scale value 2 represents an apparent density between 780 and 840 kg/m³.

The physical density, also known as mass density, indicates the ratio of a substance’s mass to its pure material volume without considering cavities. It is expressed in units such as g/cm³ or kg/m³. For comparison: Water has a density of approximately 1 g/cm³ at 4 °C.

WARCO processes rubber granulate in its products, which is predominantly obtained from recycled used tyres. This so-called ELT granulate (End-of-Life Tyres) mainly consists of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and natural rubber (NR) and has a physical density of around 1200 kg/m³. Some WARCO products also contain, or exclusively consist of, newly manufactured ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM), with a density of about 1600 kg/m³.

Since WARCO products are not made from solid rubber but from a mixture of rubber granulate and polyurethane binder, pressed into shaped elements with a defined proportion of pores and air inclusions, the specification of apparent density is crucial. It significantly influences the properties of the final product:

• Surface structure and resistance: Higher density leads to a firmer, smoother, and more resistant surface.

• Water permeability: Products with lower density are generally more water-permeable, making them particularly suitable for applications such as sports or impact protection flooring.

• Elasticity: Lower density results in softer and more elastic materials, while denser products are harder and more dimensionally stable.

By precisely adjusting the apparent density to the intended use, WARCO products can be optimally tailored to various requirements – from shock-absorbing impact protection mats to durable floor coverings for heavily used areas.
