Keeping The Kids Safe In The Garden
When you have kids, you usually need a serious re-think to your garden planning. Say goodbye to neat and tidy, you can guarantee that your once-pristine lawn will now have a scattering of plastic toys or a trampoline adorning it, and any delicate shrubs or flowers are inevitably going to be on the wrong side of a badminton racquet or inquisitive fingers at some point.
It doesn’t have to be a negative experience though: turning a section of your garden into a nice play area will keep the kids from destroying most of your other plants and also let you section off an area that you won’t have to maintain so heavily. Turning that wild bit of the garden into a space covered in playbark is a good way of keeping a straggly section of garden under control, and if properly contained with some boundary boards will keep and area looking relatively smart whilst keeping a soft surface for your children to play on.
Playbark differs from other bark mulch chippings as it conforms to strict guidelines concerning size, source and chemical treatments. Council play areas that use playbark will only use material that meets these criteria. It is possible to use standard bark chippings in a domestic setting, but bear in mind that these may have had unsuitable chemical treatments, or have sharp material or infectious substances in the chippings that have not been sterilised or processed.
You can approach your local council to see which companies provide their playground surfaces material, they will probably have a variety of suppliers that use natural impact absorbent products to synthetic rubberised compounds, but there is most likely a number of local companies you can find that will help you out too. Although you won’t be able to purchase at cost price, this will give you a place to start if you are out of ideas.
Lots of topsoil suppliers however will have bark chippings and bark mulch as one of the alternatives that they supply customers, and you may find that some have the approved grading selection for playbark and can provide the suitable assurances regarding the treatment of the wood and its suitability for a play area covering.
