It’s
no accident that over 50,000 playgrounds
in the U.S. and Canada are surfaced
with Fibar Engineered Wood Fiber. It
is designed and tested to be a superior
product with long-term, trouble-free
performance:
* Superior
raw material. Fibar
EWF is made from 100% virgin wood fiber,
not used wood, which may contain things
you don’t want in your playground
(see Certificate of
Purity below).
* Superior testing and verification. Fibar
EWF is tested regularly to make sure
it complies with all relevant ASTM standards:
F1292 for impact absorption, F2075 for
material purity, and F1951 for wheelchair
access. In addition, the testing is independently
verified by the International Play Equipment
Manufacturers Association (IPEMA).
* Superior performance. Unlike
some other brands, Fibar EWF is carefully
controlled as to type and size of wood
fibers. This means that the fibers knit
together to provide a surface springy
enough to cushion falls, yet firm enough
for wheelchairs. Another advantage: Rain
water passes through, so kids can play
right after it rains. Finally, it simply
looks good. The varied colors of natural
wood please the eye and blend in with
any kind of setting.
* Superior support. Over
the past 25 years, Fibar has become the
world leader in playground surfacing.
We’ve learned the ins and outs
of how to produce and deliver Engineered
Wood Fiber in a way that means peace
of mind for specifiers and buyers alike.

satisfaction with every delivery.

Top-offs
for Your Fibar Playground
To minimize
serious injuries from falls on your
playground, it is essential that your
Fibar playground surface be topped
off periodically. The kids pictured
above at a South Dakota playground
show topping off a FibarSystem
is child's play!
Topping off your FibarSystems
play surface provides children with the
protection they deserve, and it protects
your investment in safe play. Maintaining
the correct surface depth is an essential
condition. See FibarSystems
| Maintenance for details.
Experience has shown
us that installations typically require
top-offs after three (3) years of use
(on some playgrounds, maybe sooner).
Top-offs can sometimes be scheduled with
other deliveries to minimize the freight
cost.

When
ordering your Fibar top-off,
we strongly recommend you order FibarMat
wear mats for
under swings, at the base of slides
and other heavy wear areas. |
