THE PRODUCT

The shock pad under
the wear layer

SBR is black rubber granule made from recycled tyres. Bound with polyurethane binder, it forms the shock pad of a wet pour soft fall surface, and that is the layer doing the impact absorption. Its depth is set by the fall height of the equipment above it.

It is normally finished with a coloured EPDM wear layer, but it can also be laid on its own where colour is not the point, for the same impact absorption at a lower cost per square metre.

QUESTIONS

Questions about SBR

How much SBR do I need?

It depends on the area and the depth of the shock pad, and the depth is set by the fall height of the equipment. Send us the area and the equipment and we will work out the bags and the binder.

What is the difference between EPDM and SBR?

SBR is recycled black rubber and is normally the base layer. EPDM is a coloured synthetic granule used for the wear layer you actually see. Most jobs use both: SBR underneath for depth, EPDM on top for colour and durability.

Can SBR be used on its own?

Yes, where colour is not the point. It gives the same impact absorption as a two-layer surface at a lower cost per square metre.

Can I lay it myself?

Yes. Everything is available supply only, so you can lay it yourself or use your own contractor. If you would rather we laid it, we quote the whole surface, base preparation included.

Do you deliver, or can I collect?

Supply only orders ship, or can be collected from our Malaga or Jandakot showroom.

Want it laid instead?

Tell us the area and what is going over it, and we will come out, measure it and give you a fixed written quote.
