Safety Turf Inc. was founded in 1989 by Samuel Stewart Jr. and his family, after he partnered with a chemist from the Franklin Institute who had developed a resilient flooring made from recycled tires. The company specializes in manufacturing and installing playground safety surfacing that comprises primarily recycled rubber, ensuring a safe playing environment for children. Safety Turf’s innovative use of EPDM granules not only adheres to safety standards but also allows for a variety of aesthetic options in color and design, making playgrounds more visually appealing, functional, and safe.
Safety Turf has played a pioneering role in the industry, being one of the earliest companies to meet the evolving safety requirements outlined by ASTM standards concerning playground surfacing. With over three decades of experience, the family-owned business has a strong reputation across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and parts of Virginia for its dedication to quality, reliability, and customer service. They are known for their seamless installation processes and environmentally friendly products, including their Corkeen® surfacing, which is made from 100% organic cork and contributes to the eco-friendliness of playgrounds.
Safety Turf not only focuses on providing a durable product but also emphasizes the need for maintaining safety during play. All installations are carried out with the utmost care to meet specific fall height and fall zone requirements, which significantly reduce injuries resulting from playground accidents. The company's commitment to using high-quality materials and their extensive testing ensures that their surfaces not only meet but typically exceed industry safety standards.
In addition to installation, Safety Turf offers maintenance and repair services to ensure the longevity and durability of their surfacing. They aim to create playgrounds that are not just safe to play on, but also visually pleasing, thereby enhancing community playgrounds and recreational areas for families and children. Overall, Safety Turf Inc. is a trusted name for creating safe, enjoyable, and sustainable playground environments.
