One of the most common reasons for children hurting themselves when they are out playing is due to hard surfaces. For instance, you’ve probably lost count of the times when you, or your children, have hurt themselves on hard concrete or wood. And so you may wonder how to increase your children’s safety when they are out playing.

Bark is a simple solution for additional child safety. This bark is taken from the soft outer part of trees and then stripped and treated to remove any sharp edges. It is safe for children to play on and screened to reduce the chance of splinters.

This material can be installed into your own back garden and is often used in public playgrounds.
