Mulch is often used to decrease erosion, hold moisture, hinder weed growth, and decorate flowerbeds, trees, landscapes, and play areas. Cedar or bark chips, grass clippings, straw or hay, saw dust, or newspaper are commonly used. However, rubber mulch Orlando is becoming another popular favorite. This product is eco-friendly, cost effective, and provides many benefits.

Manufactured from recycled tires, this outdoor material protects soil from the elements yet allows water and other nutritious substances. It prevents the growth of mold, fungus, weeds, and does not attract termites and other wood eating bugs. It is offered as chips or a manufactured mat that is free from toxic substances and odors. It is also flame resistant and will not blow or wash away in a storm.

This decorative yet effective material is beneficial in athletic fields for baseball and other sports as well as areas with play equipment especially in schools. It has an elastic quality which softens any harsh contact and reduces injuries. Children and adults with allergies are not affected by this product unless they have a rubber allergy. Physical contact also does not cause any skin reactions.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have deemed that this material meets and exceeds their guidelines. The International Play Equipment Manufacturer's Association (IPEMA) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) also approves this product, and it meets the standards of the Americans Disability Act (ADA).

Horse arenas where horses and riders train and compete prefer this alternative for its ideal traction and cushioning features. The appearance of mud and dust are greatly lessened, and non-fading colors provide a professional, maintenance free look to the area.

Landscaping around plants, flowerbeds, and trees use this sturdy, durable ground cover for protection and decoration. The need to pull weeds or use weed-killing products is decreased, and convenient paths result when laid between the rows of a vegetable garden. Colors available include blue, green, red, and the basic brown or black. Once it is laid down, it requires virtually no maintenance and will not decompose. This eliminates the need to resupply the area the following year with more ground covering material.

Rubber mulch Orlando saves worn out tires from being discarded in landfills or other areas which is an ideal way to go green. Turning one useable product into another benefits consumers financially, adds curb appeal, and is more cost effective than other materials. This product is easily installed in a variety of residential and commercial properties.
