our playground surfaces

Kids Karpet® Wood Fiber surfacing is 100% natural; No trees are specifically harvested for our products. Produced from virgin wood sources, Kids Karpet® will not splinter like kiln dried wood. Kids Karpet® is never produced from recycled pallets or other sources containing potentially contaminated material. It contains small quantities of bark which means it is mostly wood fiber, which makes the product last longer because it will not decompose as quickly as regular bark mulch. Kids Karpet® is naturally resistant to flame.

How much Kids Karpet® material will I need to cover my play area at a compacted 12 inch depth?

Divide the square footage of the area that you need to cover by 27; this will give you the area in cubic yards. Next, the material will compact approximately 33% after it is first installed, so if you multiply your cubic yardage by 1.33 (33%), this will give you the amount of Kids Karpet® needed to cover the area at a compacted 12 inch depth.

Ex. 5,000 square feet needs:
5,000 / 27 = 185.19 x 1.33 = 246.3

In the example above, 246 cubic yards of Kids Karpet® is needed.
