SBR and EPDM Rubber Granules
SBR Rubber Granules (Styrene-Butadiene Rubber)
SBR is a popular material for creating safe surfaces on playgrounds, sports arenas, and recreational areas.
Description
- Made from recycled tires, particle size 1–4 mm.
- Composed of styrene and butadiene, ensuring elasticity and wear resistance.
Main Advantages
- High elasticity that absorbs impacts.
- Durability and resistance to heavy loads.
- Chemical resistance (oils, fuels, weak acids).
- Temperature stability: from -30°C to +60°C.
- Cost-effective compared to EPDM.
- Eco-friendly, as it is made from recycled materials.
Where Is It Used?
- Playgrounds
- Sports areas (running tracks, football fields)
- Recreation zones
- Pedestrian paths and parking lots
- Underlays for gym equipment
Installation Process
- Prepare the base (concrete, asphalt).
- Mix SBR granules with polyurethane adhesive.
- Apply the mixture evenly.
- Allow full curing (12–24 hours).
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer)
EPDM is a synthetic rubber obtained through the polymerization of ethylene, propylene, and diene monomer, offering excellent properties for outdoor use.
Key Characteristics
- UV and weather resistance.
- Flexibility and elasticity even at low temperatures.
- Long lifespan — 15–20 years.
- Eco-friendly — safe for people and nature.
Where Is It Used?
- Poured-in-place playground surfaces
- Sports zones (tennis courts, running tracks)
- Decorative areas in parks
- Surfaces for pools and water parks
Usage Benefits
- Wide range of colors for creating patterns.
- High wear resistance.
- Enhanced safety for children and athletes.
Adhesive for Rubber Granules
- One-component — convenient for small tasks, cures upon contact with moisture.
- Two-component — stronger, for large areas, requires precise mixing.
Manufacturers
- SikaBond, Polytan, Kraiburg, RubberTite, Rekortan
Important to Note
- Adhesive viscosity and average curing time (12–24 hours).
