Benefits of Rubber Mulch


 Are you debating on whether to purchase rubber or wood mulch for your flowerbed or play area?

There are many benefits of using rubber mulch and they vary depending on the type of space one uses it in. The type of rubber mulch you decide to use will also determine the amount you need to purchase to adequately fill the space. For playgrounds and landscaping, rubber mulch has many benefits over traditional mulch or sand. Using rubber mulch will be the end of erosion, which will help better protect play equipment. Rubber mulch is much heavier than other loose-fill playground and landscape fillers and also slows the growth of weeds. For playgrounds, rubber mulch is much softer and offers better fall height protection against head injuries in children. It’s softer on their skin and leaves NO splinters!



We all want our flower beds and other landscaping to look fabulous and rubber mulch is a fantastic alternative to traditional fillers! It will drastically cut costs because it eliminates the need for annual mulching, which is one of its biggest benefits. Rubber mulch has a longer lifespan and is offered in both shredded and nuggets and in a variety of colors.


As our world gets more knowledgeable and aware of how important it is to be green, using rubber mulch is just another way to help promote these values. Our rubber mulch is 100% recycled from shredded tires. Choose rubber mulch and help show the significance of recycling!

Rubber mulch can be used for many applications such as playgrounds, landscaping, walking and jogging paths and equestrian environments. Although rubber mulch isn’t the traditional mulch, it outperforms wood in many areas! Bonded rubber mulch is another great option if your looking for a solid surface. Bonded rubber mulch has a more natural appearance than poured-in-place safety surface because it can be installed over leveled earth. 

Check out the recap of rubber mulch benefits below!


·   Staying Power: Rubber Mulch is heavier than wood mulch, so it’s not going to move like wood mulch in strong winds or floods.

·   Weathering: No Fault Rubber Mulch has a five year color fade warranty. Traditional wood mulch starts to fade after too much sun exposure within the first year!

·   Time & Money: Although rubber mulch is slightly more expensive initially, flowerbeds must be re-mulched annually with wood mulch. By using rubber mulch, you will eliminate that yearly chore and expense!

·   Cushion: The more shock absorbent a surface is, the lower the likelihood of a serious injury. No Fault Rubber Mulch protects children against falls up to 12 feet, depending on the depth of the mulch and meets ASTM and ADA standards.  More wood mulch is required to reach the same fall height protection, it displaces, and you run the risk of getting splinters. Ouch!

  1. Aside from the fact that rubber playground mulch can used for aesthetic purposes, the safety they gave to our kids is also priceless.

  2. Rubber mulch for landscaping is a good idea. It is a healthy environment for plantings because it inhibits mold and fungus growth, is excellent for drainage and does not compress or flatten out, so water continues to get to plants while controlling weed growth and not attract nesting insects.

  4. Rubber landscape mulch offers an eco-friendly and long-lasting alternative to standard timber mulch. Its sturdiness and resilience make it a smart choice for preserving tidy and occasional door space protection while repurposing recycled materials.
