The Jelly Bean Rubber Mulch is tested to ASTM F1292-09 which is the standard for critical fall height for head injuries . At 6 inches of compacted depth the Jelly Bean Rubber Mulch exceeds the test parameters which are 17ft. Certain state regulations may require licensed childcare facilities to have a certain depth.

What color is it?
The color is how the product gets its name, Jelly Bean. The Jelly Bean Rubber Mulch is a mixture of many different colors. Over 60 percent of the tiles we recycle are in the grey family so from a distance the material appears to look like gravel on a playground. To get an idea of the color take a look at the photos on this page and order a sample below.
This is one of the biggest advantages of the Jelly Bean Rubber Mulch is the fact that unlike tire mulch the material does not have a coating. Ask anyone who has had tire mulch for an extended period of time and they will tell you about how the color eventually comes off on the kids. Even the best coatings are only warrantied for 15 years against total color loss.
Does The Jelly Bean Rubber Mulch meet ADA requirements?
Does the material mold or mildew, what maintenance is required?
Mold, Mildew… not at all! The tile we are recycling has an anti-microbial and anti-fungal baked in so its perfect for humid climates. The only maintenance is occasional raking as needed in high traffic spots. The Jelly bean Rubber Mulch tends to stay put better than tire rubber mulch due to its piece size.
What is the life span of the material?
Unlike wood mulch that rots and has to constantly be replaced the Jelly bean Rubber Mulch does not degrade. The material is warrantied for 20 years against degradation. While the cost is more upfront you’ll sleep well knowing the safety surface your responsible for is always in compliance and will cost less over time.
