Safe, Durable Playground Surfaces Transform Elementary School Experience

Project Overview

ForeverLawn Northeast Indiana successfully completed a comprehensive playground transformation at a Columbus elementary school, installing 2,340 square feet of Playground Grass Ultra synthetic turf. The project addressed critical safety concerns and maintenance challenges that educational institutions commonly face with traditional playground surfaces. School administrators sought a durable, weather-resistant solution that would provide consistent performance while prioritizing student safety during active play.

Our Approach

Our team implemented a systematic installation process, beginning with thorough site preparation and proper drainage infrastructure. The artificial grass for playgrounds solution featured advanced shock-absorbing technology specifically engineered for high-impact play activities. We utilized specialized installation techniques to ensure optimal drainage capabilities and seamless surface integration. The comprehensive approach included detailed quality checks throughout each phase to guarantee long-term performance and safety compliance.

Key Highlights

The completed installation delivers exceptional impact absorption, significantly reducing injury risks while maintaining consistent performance across varying weather conditions. Superior drainage capabilities prevent water accumulation, ensuring the playground remains functional year-round without safety compromises. The synthetic turf requires minimal maintenance compared to traditional surfaces, allowing school staff to focus resources on educational priorities. This innovative playground surface supports children’s physical development and creative play while meeting stringent safety standards for educational environments.
