Bonded Rubber

Bonded Rubber is poured on-site like poured rubber, but consists of shredded rubber pieces, as opposed to granular pieces. It provides the same seamless surface and can be used in similar applications as poured-in-place rubber.

About Our Bonded Rubber

Our bonded rubber is an alternative to traditional poured rubber surfaces. It provides the same highly accessible one-piece surface but utilizes larger pieces than poured-in-place rubber.

It is poured onsite in a single-layer system that resembles bonded rubber mulch, achieving a natural appearance for your outdoor facility. It is porous, drains well, and dries quickly. Some of our custom colors resemble wood fibers or other natural materials, but since the material is bonded together, it doesn’t require the same upkeep and maintenance. Our bonded rubber surfacing will not blow away, or migrate outside the play area.

Benefits of Bonded Rubber

Bonded rubber is a seamless surface that mimics engineered wood fiber but is easier to maintain. 

Bonded rubber can provide a lower cost option than other seamless surfaces because it doesn't take as much time to install. It does not absorb water, and will not freeze. It's a great option for paths, walkways and playgrounds. Other reasons to install bonded rubber mulch:

  • Rubber is 100% recycled
  • Larger particles provide the natural look of loose fill surfacing without the disadvantages of displacement
  • Its single layer may offer a lower cost and quicker install
  • UV and moisture resistant
  • Comprised of a precise combination of 100% wire free, clean recycled rubber, a polyurethane binder, and a pigmented colorant
  • The binder is a 100% Single Component MDI based Polyurethane binding agent.
  • Installed and troweled by hand to provide a resilient, seamless appearance

Applications

  • Playgrounds - Bonded rubber surfaces add a natural look to any playscape.  The advantage of this poured process is the elimination of displacement and refill that loose fill surfaces will require.
  • Rubber Trails - Robertson specialized product Trail Turf, can be used for paths, walking or jogging trails, tracks in football stadiums and courtyard paths.
  • Landscaping - Bonded rubber is a great alternative to loose fill landscapes as well.  Perfect for hotels, neighborhood shared areas, church courtyards, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bonded rubber is a single-layer, seamless surfacing system poured and troweled onsite. It uses larger rubber pieces than poured-in-place rubber, giving it a natural appearance similar to mulch or wood fiber while remaining bonded together as one cohesive surface.

Both are seamless, accessible surfaces, but bonded rubber uses larger rubber particles and a single-layer system rather than the two-layer system used in poured-in-place rubber. This can result in a lower cost and quicker installation time.

Bonded rubber is comprised of 100% wire-free, clean recycled rubber combined with a pigmented colorant and a 100% Single Component MDI-based Polyurethane binding agent. It is installed and troweled by hand onsite.

Bonded rubber is available in six natural colors and three colorful mixes. Some options are designed to resemble wood fibers or other natural materials.
