Rubber Curbs
Rubber covers for curbs to increase safety
Rubber curbs are rubber products designed to secure the edges around the square where the rubber plates are applied. Curbs, as the name suggests, are used to place them on the edges of an object or surface. In this case, in order to unify and give even more safety, it is installed or put on the edges of playgrounds made of rubber plates or rubber cubes. They are not just a purely aesthetic element, thanks to their shapes you can walk on them normally because they are not too steep. They protect the rubber plates from passing and falling to the curb as this cushions.
What are rubber curbs and what sets them apart?
Rubber curbs on the playground are safety elements that play a crucial role in defining the boundaries of the surface and increasing the safety level of users. Made of high-quality rubber granulate, they are characterized by high flexibility and resistance to mechanical damage. Their main task is to stabilize the surface and protect against accidental falling outside the impact-absorbing zone, increasing the safety of children during play.
Rubber curbs stand out for their high resistance to weather conditions, including moisture, UV radiation, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring their long lifespan. Their soft structure effectively absorbs impacts, minimizing the risk of serious injuries in case of falls. With an anti-slip surface, they provide stability and safe movement within the playground.
The modular design of the curbs allows for quick installation and adaptation to different shapes and surface layouts. Their aesthetic appearance and variety of colors allow for harmonious integration with other playground elements. This modern, durable, and functional solution improves comfort and safety in any recreational space.
In summary, here are the key properties of rubber curbs:
- Flexibility - rubber allows curbs to bend and shape into any form. They can be installed in a straight line, curved, or in a circular shape. By cutting them at an angle, corners can be created.
- Extremely strong - resistant to high pedestrian traffic, they can be stepped on.
- Durability - rubber curbs are resistant to cracking, intensive use, and harsh weather conditions.
- Easy installation - curbs do not require glue or specially prepared surfaces before installation.

Using rubber curbs on the playground
Rubber curb on the playground creates an aesthetic, designated play area. Safe playgrounds are equipped with a non-slip surface to minimize the risk of slipping or dangerous falls. Rubber curbs on the playground protect the edges of designated areas, which may be surfaced with rubber sheets, interlocking mats, or tiles. Rubber curbs, with their injury-preventing properties, enhance the safety of children playing on the playground. Therefore, combining rubber curbs with playground mats can significantly improve the safety of children during playtime.
Rubber curbs not only for playgrounds - where else can they be used?
Rubber curbs are a versatile solution that is used not only on playgrounds, but also in many other spaces requiring durable and safe delineation of surface boundaries. Their flexible construction and resistance to mechanical damage make them an ideal choice in areas with high pedestrian traffic, such as walking paths in parks, recreational alleys, or areas around outdoor gyms.
In sports facilities, such as multi-purpose courts, tennis courts, or running tracks, rubber curbs play a stabilizing role on the surface, while also protecting against accidental falls outside the user area. Their cushioning properties minimize the risk of injuries, which is crucial in intensively used training spaces.
Rubber curbs are also excellent in stables and horse stalls, where they serve as a flexible barrier protecting animals from accidental injuries. Their moisture resistance and ease of cleaning make them a durable and hygienic solution. Increasingly, they are also being used in kindergartens, schools, and recreational areas as aesthetic and safe boundaries for movement zones, improving comfort and safety in public spaces.
