Success beyond the surface PLAY Your complete guide to playground matting, surfacing and shade solutions
Numat PLAY 2016 It’s time to get serious about play. Be it with small steps or great feats you need to know their experience on the field and through the playground is dependably safe and wholly exciting. Our goal is simple: to grow imaginations, to protect bodies, to inspire action. We do so by ensuring our products are of the greatest quality and that they are installed to the highest standard.

Numat PLAY 2016
In early childhood centres, schools, sports
fields and playgrounds across New Zealand
we assess, design, install and maintain a
wide range of surface, structure and shade
solutions as part of our work providing the
very best in play landscapes.
Good playground surfacing doesn’t just take the ‘ouch’ out of ‘oops’.
It instigates play, encourages exploration and inspires imagination.
It protects, challenges and grows. And, ultimately,
it ensures safe, happy and thriving children.
We deliver such results by carefully managing the entire process of
playscape development. From initial assessment through to construction
we make certain every client receives both service and products
uniquely crafted and correctly fitting their specific requirements.

Care for
people
Kids love to climb higher and
go faster. Yes, we must always
encourage them to do so. But we
must also be ready for when they fall.
We have produced fall zone safety surfacing for
more than 15 years. In this time our systems
have consistently delivered for community,
school and pre-school playgrounds.
These systems have fully certified Critical Fall Height (CFH)
factors of up to three metres. The CFH of our safety surfacing is
increased by the installation of additional shockpads under the
top layer of matting. You can feel the difference these soft,
shock-absorbent rubber surfaces provide.
Numat is tested and certified in accordance with NZS5828:2004
Playground Equipment and Surfacing Standards in New Zealand.
Our shock absorption performance is evaluated by the HIC
(Head Injury Criterion) test, a careful analysis that measures fall
impact through multi-axial deceleration. A second test measures
kinetic energy at impact, in which a standardised head,
equipped with highly sensitive acceleration sensors, undergoes
free fall.
These tests are comprehensive and exacting – and with good
reason. Each year in New Zealand approximately 7400 children
aged 15 years and under are treated at emergency departments
for injuries sustained while using playground equipment, More
than 1100 are subsequently hospitalised. Many of the injuries are
a result from falls.
When fall heights exceeded 2.5 metres 55% of equipment did
not have impact absorbing surfaces below it. Of those that did,
only 4% complied with the safe fall requirement.

Care for
the planet
There are over one billion tyres
manufactured worldwide each year.
Each has a limited lifespan on the
vehicle it is originally intended for.
And then what? How do you turn this
wide-ranging, long-term waste into
a valuable resource? Sometimes the
answer is at your feet…
We are committed to environmentally friendly
products and sustainable manufacturing
processes.
Almost all of our matting products are made from rubber
recycled from waste vehicle tyres using a clean and efficient
recycling process in New Zealand, Europe or Canada. Rubber
used in these tyres comes from sustainable forests of the Pará
rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis. On average over 1500 tyres are
used for the 200m2 of Pour’n’Play matting.
Our dedication to reducing, recycling and reusing ensures we
can minimise wastage as we maximize play spaces. This is a
company-wide mindset – our work is about small feet, great
feats and, with our focus on sustainability, a smaller footprint for
our business.
We also take pride in the long-lasting strength of our product
range. We scope each project and deliver well-matched,
correctly fitted solutions to ensure our customers have a
carefree future. Ours is not a ‘throwaway’ product. And that’s
what it’s all about: taking care, growing up, protecting bodies
and sharing adventures, be it with this generation or the next.

Prime2, our renowned base
surfacing process, provides
your playground with the finest
of foundations – a carefully
engineered, built-tough sub-layer. Step 1: Excavation
The base layer beneath any playground surface needs to be both fit
for purpose and enduring in firmness.
For core strength and supreme safety our Prime-2 layer delivers a
superior substructure to Kiwi playgrounds. Built to last year after year Step 2: Geotextile layer
without any degradation in quality and consistency, Prime-2 provides
peace of mind for the out of sight support.
Like many things in life, achieving the right result means working
your way up. To start the construction sequence we remove all
surface vegetation and topsoil and excavate the site to the highest
standard. We remove any weak materials from the surface before
undertaking a sub-grade evaluation.
From there a minimum of 100mm of high-grade supporting fill will
be placed, ensuring our geotextile layer can go down over that with Step 3: Shockpad layer
even consistency. Compaction is key here. From small bumps big
problems grow – so we make certain everything is smooth and flat.
One of the greatest strengths of a playground can be hard to see, but
it’s nevertheless highly important. Prime2 provides this important
capability with assured confidence.
