About GreenScape
Sustainable Surfaces LLC is a startup launched by playground surfacing experts with one goal in mind: to create an environmentally friendly, affordable safety surfacing material for playgrounds throughout the US and the world. This new material is also designed to be more durable and provide better value for your investment, compared to other surfacing materials.
We engineered GreenScape©, a state-of-the-art interlocking tile system that offers the safety and sustainability benefits required for today’s playgrounds. GreenScape’s thermoplastic polymer composition allows its unique design, resulting in the creation of a lighter tile with better structural integrity and durability. GreenScape has excellent energy absorption and therefore great fall height protection.
Because GreenScape is a thermoplastic polymer, it’s also 100% recyclable. And with its lower installation and maintenance costs, we’re confident you’ll discover GreenScape is the right choice for your playground.
Why is GreenScape Different?
Advanced design
- Easy to install 2 ft. by 2 ft. square tiles are a snap to power wash
- Tiles lock tightly along mating lines, eliminating gaps between tiles
- Bonded to the subsurface; no need for failure-prone mechanical fasteners
- Durable, consistent surfacing maintains its visual appeal
Excellent safety characteristics
- ASTM compliant for playground surfacing systems and fire-resistant as well
- Withstands fall impact of kids from different heights
- Slip-resistant, embossed surface reduces tripping hazards
- ADA compliant
Better for our environment
- Reduce — Tiles are lighter and thinner than other surfacing materials
- Reuse — Tiles can be remelted and reformed into new tiles
- Recycle — Made from 100% recyclable thermoplastic polymer
Compare GreenScape to Other Surfacing Products
Lighter in weight
With the same or better drop-test values, compared to other tile systems.
Competitively priced
Competitive cost per sq. ft., plus lower installation & maintenance costs.
100% recyclable
Compared to compression molded natural rubber and EPDM rubber products. No toxins or VOCs to harm kids.
Weather resistant
With consistent properties (e.g., hardness, elasticity), unlike compression molded rubber tiles.
FAQs
A thermoplastic polymer is a type of polymeric material that softens and can be molded into shapes when heated and hardens into that shape when it is cooled. Thermoplastics do not show any chemical or physical property change when heated or cooled several times, which makes them easy to recycle. This means that GreenScape tiles can be recovered and reused to mold new tiles via the same molding.
GreenScape is available in four colors (tan, blue, green and red), offering you the flexibility to design creative and fun playground surfaces.

GreenScape is the only 100% recyclable thermoplastic rubber tile surfacing available today. It is very competitive pricing-wise with other natural rubber crosslinked tile surfacing that does not interlock and requires physical fastening. However, the installation of GreenScape is faster and less expensive since it interlocks and needs no physical fastening.
