Frequently Asked Questions

How much wood carpet for playgrounds do I need to meet safety standards?
You need 8 inches of WoodCarpet Engineered Wood Fiber for equipment up to 8 feet high, or 12 inches for equipment up to 12 feet high. Measure your playground's use zone — the area 6 feet around all equipment plus the height of the equipment itself. A 2,000 square foot playground with 8-foot equipment requires approximately 50 cubic yards at 8-inch depth.
Does WoodCarpet meet ASTM F1487 fall protection requirements?
Yes, WoodCarpet Engineered Wood Fiber is IPEMA-certified and meets ASTM F1487, CPSC Handbook for Public Playground Safety, and ADA guidelines for playground surfacing. The 8-inch depth provides critical fall height protection for 8-foot drops, while 12-inch depth protects for 12-foot falls. Your site plan must include an accessible route to equipment per ADA guidelines.
What maintenance does engineered wood fiber playground surfacing require?
Rake WoodCarpet monthly to maintain proper depth and add fresh material annually to replace decomposed fiber. Check depth with a probe rod after heavy use or weather — you need consistent coverage across the entire use zone. Plan for 10-15% material replacement each year to maintain ASTM F1487 compliance and fall protection ratings.
