Black rubber mulch is a durable, long-lasting landscape ground cover made from recycled rubber, designed to resist fading, erosion, and decomposition. Unlike organic mulch, it does not break down, compact, or wash away easily, making it a low-maintenance option for landscaping and play areas. This steel-free material offers high purity, resists insects such as termites and carpenter ants, and dries quickly after rain since it does not absorb water. With guaranteed color stability for years and strong weather resistance, black rubber mulch performs reliably in both residential and commercial environments.
Common applications for black rubber mulch
- Residential and commercial playground surfaces
- Landscape beds and decorative ground cover
- Around swing sets and play structures
- Erosion-prone areas needing long-term coverage
For playground safety, a depth of approximately 3 inches for residential and 6 inches for commercial installations is typically recommended, with periodic depth checks to maintain proper protection.
