Seamless resilient safety surfacing for indoor and outdoor water parks

Seamless and resilient safety surfacing made with RUBAPRO aqua granules is suitable for indoor and outdoor water play environments.

Highly resistant to water chemicals, salt water and UV, it is slip resistant in wet and dry conditions.

The system allows creation of quality, colourful, safe, skid-resistant aesthetic surfaces. 2D and 3D designs can easily be integrated in order to obtain creative, eye catching functional spaces. With its odourless feature, the surfacing system is also suitable for indoor applications.

RUBAPRO aqua system is highly skid-resistant when wet. Top priority has been given to health and environmental compatibility.

Aqua granules fulfil the stringent requirements of the EN 71-3 standard “Safety of Toys” and REACH “Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals” regulations.

All systems can be tested according to EN-1177, European standard for impact attenuating playground surfacing. Surfaces fulfilling the test requirements of this standard are considered to comply with the requirements for impact attenuation in EN 1176-1. By choosing measurement of Head Injury Criterion, HIC as safety criterion, the method considers only the movement of the head when it hits the surface of the impact area.

Aqua granules are free of heavy metals, halogen compounds, phthalates and PAH “Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons”.

RUBAPRO outdoor systems are easily installed. Thickness is determined according to the fall heights, please see playground manufacturer declarations. 

The installation can be realized by craftsmen trowel or by automatic elastic layer pavers. 

Thanks to its remarkable elasticity, the surfacing system absorbs safely the expansion and contraction of the existent surface, absorb vibrations, and permit soil movements due to earthquakes or ground settlement. It fills the cracks, eliminates blemishes of the surface. It is also a good self-leveling coating. It permits thermal contraction and expansion. No need to create sections. This is a real long-term and reliable seamless surface with a beautiful finish!  

High-quality aqua granules retain their basic properties like optimal resistance to tearing, elongation at break, abrasion and elasticity for years. They have high polymer content (23-24%).

The choice of binder determines the lifespan of the entire system.
