The US Consumer Product Safety Council statistics say over 200,000 children are hospitalized annually as a result of playground injuries, and over 80% of these are the result of children falling from the equipment.
Recycled playground surfaces dramatically reduce serious injuries from falls and eliminate splinters from wood mulch.
Products of Tireless Work
The improved function and long-lasting characteristics of recycled rubber bring quality to customers’ product lines while serving the important function of reaching conservation goals.
As manufacturers discover the inherent value of recycled rubber and embrace the environmental impact of recycling, scrap tires continue to be shredded and ground into various sizes of powders, crumbs and nuggets for use in more and more products.
Much of the recycled rubber produced by Liberty Tire is used as crumb rubber and industrial feedstock for manufacturers, as tire derived fuel for use in industry, or as rubber mulch in landscaping and playground applications.
