EN1177 Certified Safety Grass Mats

EN1177 Certified Safety Grass Mats — Playground Safety Surface | 1.0m × 1.5m BS EN 1177:2018 certified playground safety mats with a realistic artificial grass upper surface. These 1.0m × 1.5m mats combine the safety credentials of a certified impact-attenuating surface with the natural appearance of a grass finish — making them the preferred choice for schools, nurseries and garden play areas where aesthetics matter as much as compliance. Available in 23mm (up to 0.6m CFH) and 16mm (up to 0.4m CFH) thicknesses, with or without ground pegs and ties. ✓ EN1177:2018 Certified 🚚 Free UK Delivery ★ Schools & Nurseries 📞 EN1177 Docs Provided Technical Specifications Mat Size 1.0m × 1.5m Thickness Options 23mm (up to 0.6m CFH) · 16mm (up to 0.4m CFH) Safety Standard BS EN 1177:2018 — Impact Absorbing Playground Surfacing Critical Fall Height 23mm = up to 0.6m · 16mm = up to 0.4m Surface Artificial grass upper — non-slip, natural appearance Base Recycled SBR rubber Colour Green Weight per mat Approx. 5.5 kg (23mm) Drainage Permeable throughout — drains to ground UV Resistance UV-stable rubber and grass fibres Frost Resistance Yes — year-round outdoor use Fixings Ground pegs and ties (variant dependent) Choosing the Right Thickness Thickness Critical Fall Height Best For 23mm Up to 0.6m Low swings, balance beams, toddler equipment, sensory trails 16mm Up to 0.4m Crawl-through tunnels, stepping stones, very low equipment only Always match the mat thickness to the highest accessible point on your equipment.

EN1177 Compliance Documentation All EN1177 certified products are supplied with a test certificate from an accredited UK testing laboratory confirming the Critical Fall Height. This documentation is required by Ofsted for school inspections and by most local authority procurement frameworks. Request a copy with your order or contact us before purchasing if you need documentation in advance for tender submissions. Installation Lay on short-mown grass or compacted earth, cleared of stones and debris. Secure with ground pegs through the mat anchoring holes at 500mm centres around the perimeter. For safety-critical playground installations, secure internal mat joins with ties. Ensure full EN1177 fall zone coverage — minimum 1.5m beyond equipment on all sides. Grass will grow through the mat openings over time, improving appearance. Maintenance Inspect pegs and ties termly in school environments. Re-secure any that have worked loose. Remove leaf and debris accumulation from the mat surface. Annual inspection by a Registered Playground Inspector (RPII) is recommended for public and school installations.
