<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">Used tire accumulation can become environmental issue, but with the invention of rubber mulch has helped reduce the menace by a great extent.  The crumbs obtained were treated and then used for gardening and agricultural uses.  But recently, we have discovered that it can be used for other purposes too.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">It was observed that playground related accidents were taking a heavy toll on children and grownups alike.  Falling during boisterous play often resulted in fatalities.  But the advent of playground mulch has reduced this problem.  The mulch functions as a rubber cushion and prevents children getting hurt in  <a title="playgrounds safety" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/playground_rubber_mulch.asp" target="_blank">playgrounds</a>.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">Therefore, more and more people are getting their playgrounds cushioned by this ubiquitous material.  In addition to acting as a featherbed, it can prevent growth of weeds, pests etc too.  Colored </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/playground_rubber_mulch.asp">playground mulch</a></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"> can add to the beauty of the environs too.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.cihr-irsc.gc.ca/images/playground_1.jpg" alt="" />Parents are extremely concerned about the safety features of the play ground area. There can be <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatal_accident_inquiry" target="_blank">fatal accidents</a> happening when children play very enthusiastically. It is the property of the surface material to determine the level of injury sustained. <a href="http://playgroundblog.com/" target="_blank">Rubber mulches </a>play a vital role in safeguarding the interests of the children and other players using it. The cushioned surface will absorb all the shock leaving no injuries to the people use it. A playground cannot be safe more than having rubber mulch on its surface.</p>
<p>Rubber mulches are prepared by the recycling methods employed in tire industries. They do not harm the environment in any way. People can employ these rubber mulches on the ground surfaces for about 20 to 25 years and can still send it to the factory for recycling. It is highly advised to have a detailed look on the components employed in the manufacturing of the rubber mulch. The <a title="Playgrounds" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/" target="_blank">playgrounds</a> can obtain a superior look and feel with the improvement in the durability of the material. The players can have the peace of mind during the hard core practice sessions. Added to the credibility, White House has come forward in favor of the usage of rubber mulches. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Lady">First Lady of United States of America</a> has expressed her willingness to employ rubber mulch on the playground and have praised the safety features of this product. She is very happy to know that her kids are secured while playing on the grounds where rubber <a title="mulch" href="http://rubbermulch.com/" target="_blank">mulch</a> is employed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Press Release from PRWEB  regarding &#8220;<a title="Press Release about playground safety" href="http://www.prweb.com/releases/playground/safety/prweb3079434.htm" target="_blank">Cash for Clunkers</a>&#8221; Means More Tires to Recycle into Mulch Says Rubberecycle:</p>
<p><em>The popular &#8220;Cash for Clunkers&#8221; program helped the environment, but it also created a surplus of tires that are unsafe for the road. Millions of the tires from clunkers could end up in landfills as a result. Rubberecycle wants to help further the environmental benefits by <a title="recycled tires" href="http://www.rubbermulch.com/" target="_blank">recycling tires</a> and turning them into mulch products that can be used for playgrounds and landscaping.</em></p>
<p>Lakewood, NJ October 20, 2009 &#8212; RubbeRecycle, a company that recycles tires into <a title="mulch" onclick="linkClick( this.href );" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/" target="_blank">mulch</a> for playgrounds, wants to extend the environmental benefits of the popular &#8216;Cash for Clunkers&#8217; program. The program means over 800,000 cars were traded in for more fuel efficient models. The problem is that there are over 3 million tires from those cars that could end up in landfills.</p>
<p>Used tires can be managed in an environmentally sound manner by making tires into new products and finding new uses.<br />
&#8220;RubbeRecycle uses advanced technology to turn tires into new products like playground surfaces, rubber curbing and landscaping mulch,&#8221; said Keith Sacks, Vice President of RubbeRecycle.</p>
<p>Cities have been using recycled tire mulch in parks for more than a decade now. The White House recently chose to do the same. They built an environmentally-friendly playground at the nation&#8217;s capital. The surface they used is the Rubberecycle&#8217;s Mulch, which came recommended by the National Recreation and Park Association and the International Play Equipment Manufacturer&#8217;s Association.</p>
<p>&#8220;The products made from recycled tires have been shown to be safe for kids and playgrounds. There have been more than a hundred studies over nearly two decades. It&#8217;s recommended by the EPA and Consumer Reports has given it two thumbs up. It&#8217;s safer than wood mulch, gravel and sand products,&#8221; says Sacks.</p>
<p>He went on to say that besides the green aspect, <a title="playground safety" onclick="linkClick( this.href );" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/playsafer_FAQ.asp" target="_blank">playground safety</a> is a focus: &#8220;Playsafer passed the egg test. That is, we dropped an egg from the top of a 14 ft. playground. It landed on our 6-inch cushion of Playsafer, bounced, but did not break,&#8221; said Sacks.</p>
<p>The company currently processes between 10,000 and 12,000 tires a day and is designed to handle 2 million scrap tires annually.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Playgrounds are meant for enjoyment. Children wish to play and spend their evenings in the playground. Parents do take greater care in the issues regarding a play area. If the area is not well protected or secured, parents will not allow their children to play there. Gone are the days where people used traditional methods to keep the <a href="http://playgroundblog.com/childs-playground/">play area safe</a>. However, with the introduction of rubber <a title="mulch" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/" target="_blank">mulch</a>, the <a title="Playground safety" href="http://www.rubbermulch.com/playground.htm" target="_blank">playground safety</a> has been increased enormously. They offer protection by all means to the people who use the area.</p>
<p>The installation of rubber mulches on their surface will improve the playing conditions. It will reduce the risk of injuries. They are very similar to wood mulch but prepared from the rubber materials that are thrown away. By this way, environment is protected from the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_Substances_Control_Act_of_1976">toxic substances</a> that are given away by burning the waste rubber materials. All these are converted in to rubber mulch through a special process. They are so soft and do not create any forms of injuries when fallen down. It prevents the growth of weeds and has a longer life period. They are cost effective and offer a pleasant area for all.</p>

It comes in many colors to suit the tastes of the customer.  The material is commonly used in private and public gardens, parks etc to enhance the beauty of the landscape.  Being a rubber based product, it cannot be destroyed easily by rains, pests, sunlight, chemical reactions or oil spills. Such durability coupled with its adaptability makes it a favorite to gardeners all around.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"><strong>Landscape mulch </strong>is invariably obtained from used rubber tire treads.  The treads are separated from the steel belts and other impurities and made to go under extreme heat and pressure to exclude the chemical remnants contained. The resultant product is granulated, colored differently and packed beautifully.  The <a title="Rubber mulch " href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/aboutRubberRecycle.asp" target="_blank">material is available in every state</a> these days.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">The material adds drama and vivid colors to the drab surroundings.  The material can hinder the growth of pests and weeds also and thereby cuts down on maintenance charges of your garden. <a title="landscape" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/landscape.asp" target="_blank">Landscape</a> Mulch is maintenance free and because they stay in their places after installation no matter how the elements of nature behave.  If you are not still convinced, ask those who have used it once or visit a garden that uses the material for landscaping.  You will definitely return converted.</span></p>

However, with rubber mulch you can be assured about the </span>safety<span> of your kids. Most of the playgrounds <a href="http://www.ehow.com/how_5067338_ensure-playground-safety.html">these days choose</a> rubber mulch because of the cushiony softness that it offers all around the year, especially during the winters. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> Another advantage of using rubber mulch for playgrounds is that it has a high shock absorption capacity and even if your children fall from a height, you can be assured that they would not get hurt. Giving an artistic appearance to the playground these rubber mulches are easily available and are also easy to install on the playground surfaces.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> Being non-toxic in nature your children can enjoy their time playing and you can also leave toddlers around where there is rubber mulch flooring. Another point to be considered is that the rubber mulch does not rot and hence there is no chance that your kids can gain a possible infection or allergy because of the rotting mulches.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Available in different colors,shapes and styles, the </span><a href="http://www.rubberrecycle.com">rubber mulch</a><span> apart from increasing the safety of the playground can also give a good appearance to the area. </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">Every year, thousands of near fatal accidents occur in </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playground">playgrounds</a></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"> around the world.  The young and the old alike meet with accidents during boisterous physical activities.  As you know, playgrounds are places where people experience spontaneous energy overflows, resulting in heavy falls and other accidents.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">But the advent of rubber <a title="mulch" href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/" target="_blank">mulch</a> and its variant, the </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/playground_rubber_mulch.asp">playground mulch</a></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">, has brought about a credible solution to this problem.  This material, which is obtained after cleaning and processing used rubber tire treads, is being increasingly used as ground cover to playgrounds to act as shock absorbers.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">Not only that, playground mulch improves footing and provides more grip.  The chances of accidental slips are also minimal in areas where the material is spread.  It comes in several colors also.  Thus, not only does it prevent accidents, but it adds to the aesthetics of the playground too. </span></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;">The success of </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.rubberecycle.com/">rubber mulch</a></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"> in preventing playground related accidents has been replicated in horse racing arena and military training areas too.  Another added advantage is its easy availability.  It is easily maintainable too, as the material cannot be eroded by forces of nature, nor it decays like other mulches.   In other words, playground mulch is both eco-friendly and user-friendly at the same time.</span></p>
