Engineered
Wood Fiber Surfacing
This product is manufactured from engineered,
non-toxic, crushed wood fiber (comprised of
softwoods or hardwoods), consisting of randomly
sized wood fibers, the majority of which do
not exceed 1.5"-3" in length, containing
10%-20% fine pieces to aid in compaction.
(It is generally understood that the manufacturing
process allows a few oversized pieces.)
Once the newly installed product has settled,
it forms a "knitted" or compacted
layer that will support a wheelchair, crutches,
walkers, etc. It does not utilize any wood
containing paint, chemicals or additives.
The product has minimal bark and is free of
twigs, leaf debris and other organic materials.
Drainage is important, and the product may
freeze if wet in cold weather conditions.
Wood fiber is one of the most economical surface
choices initially, but will require more maintenance
and occasional topping off to maintain the
recommended depth, and remain compliant with
standards and warranty. Wood fiber can be
installed by volunteer labor, as well as by
an installer. It gives your playground an
attractive, natural look.

about necessary additions as well as options
for wood fiber installation.
