Product Overview
The Eco‑Recycled EPDM Sports Surface is designed for sustainability‑focused projects. The base layer uses 100% recycled SBR from post‑consumer tyres. The top layer uses a blend of 30–40% recycled EPDM (from industrial waste) and virgin EPDM to maintain colour stability. The total recycled content reaches 50–60% depending on the thickness ratio. Despite the high recycled content, the surface provides good UV resistance (3–4 years colour retention) and meets all safety standards. End‑of‑life materials can be ground and reused again.
✅ Ideal for: LEED‑certified schools, green community centres, eco‑resorts, corporate sustainability campuses, and projects pursuing environmental certification.

Q: Does recycled EPDM affect colour?
→ We blend recycled EPDM with virgin EPDM and add UV stabilisers. Colour performance is slightly below all‑virgin premium grade but acceptable for 3–4 years.
Q: Is it more expensive than standard recycled base?
→ Slightly (approx. 5–10% more) due to recycled EPDM processing. But it offers higher recycled content for green certifications.
