The global market for playground surfaces material has experienced significant growth in recent years. By the end of 2017, the market was already valued at $3.73 billion. However, this looks set to explode to $5.85 billion by the end of 2026. The increase in value represents growth of 1.5 times in just under a decade. This is a market that has shown significant activity, as well as plenty of innovation, as organisations working globally have sought to improve the options that are on offer as playground surfaces materials, as well as how these impact in terms of sustainability and durability. It's a market that includes a wide range of different materials, including synthetic turf, wood chips, sand and rubber, among many others. Key requirements forplayground surfaces are that they are easy to use and comfortable while also adhering to vital safety standards.

There are lots of benefits to installing a Multi Use Games Area (MUGA). From the low maintenance to the enhanced activities provision and the opportunities it offers for giving people more chances to try different sports, there are clear advantages to having a MUGA on site. The right safety surfacing can also make a big difference too - effective wet pour surfacing not only helps to improve performance but also minimises the potential for injuries. Abacus Playgrounds is the UK's largest installer of safety surfacing and we have helped many organisations and communities to access the benefits of a MUGA.

Safety surfaces create more options for playgrounds and ensure that they can be safely used and enjoyed by everyone. There are many different types of surfaces available and these can be tailored to the specific needs of an individual project to give it the required finish. This is flooring that can be used in many different locations, whether that's for a school playground, a public play area, the play space in a nursery or for sports facilities. Abacus provides a range of comprehensive safety surfaces that will bring the area to life and create many more opportunities for use.
