WHAT THEY DO
Playtop installs fun and vibrant safety surfacing for playgrounds, sports courts, and walkways.
They source the rubber they use for the impact absorbing base layer from Tyrewise registered processing partners using hundreds of tonnes of used truck tyres every year.
Used rubber surfacing from playground repairs is also returned for processing so it can be chipped and reused by Playtop in their base layers – a truly circular product.
“The Tyrewise scheme helps us in a number of ways. Collection of used tyres is now properly controlled, removing the risk of dumping that was a big problem, and now we get to work with other reputable operators in the industry to keep on top of the flow of used tyres.”
