Cost Effective

Polygreen padding is often half the cost of many competing absorption and drainage pads and is cut into standard sheets that make estimating easy, minimize waste, and fit efficiently in a standard semi-trailer.

Environmentally Friendly

Polygreen padding is made from recycled, non-contaminated, post industrial cross-linked closed cell polyethylene foam. It is completely free of rubber, lead and heavy metals and is 100% recyclable.

Dry

Stay Drier

Quick Draining

Polygreen pad's unique drainage characteristics allow water to drain very rapidly both vertically and laterally so playgrounds and fields stay drier, safer and cleaner. The highly porous material does not absorb water or other liquids so it is ready to be played on shortly after the rain stops - creating more hours of enjoyable play time each year.
