About ChildsPlay and Our Playground Surfacing Systems

Choose ChildsPlay for your playground refurbishment or new facility and, unlike grass or traditional safety surfacing, benefit from greater design flexibility and long-term performance.

The ChildsPlay system is topped with durable VHAF NottsSward artificial turf, available in a range of 15 colours. This allows for vibrant patterns, graphics and games that inspire children’s imagination. Its flexibility also enables the inclusion of mounds, slopes and ramps, creating more dynamic and engaging playground environments.

Notts Sport provides expert advice to help bring your playground to life, whether using our ready-made designs or developing your own bespoke concepts.

Value for money & peace of mind

ChildsPlay systems are designed to deliver around a decade of durability, even in high-use environments. Over time, they can offer significant cost savings compared to sand and bark surfaces due to lower maintenance requirements. They are also a cost-effective alternative to wetpour and rubber tiles, which often require higher upfront investment.

ChildsPlay is an environmentally responsible choice. The EPP (expanded polypropylene) tiles used for impact protection are 100% recyclable, helping to reduce landfill at end of life.
