SAFE & PRACTICAL RESIN PLAYGROUND AND PATH

All Saints Academy in Dunstable required a large-scale transformation to improve their outdoor spaces, ensuring they were both durable and safe for students and staff. This extensive project took place throughout 2021, involving the installation of a high-quality resin-bound surface across multiple areas.

The process began with the removal of selected grassed sections, followed by the installation of edging and a sturdy tarmac sub-base to provide a strong foundation. Once this groundwork was complete, we applied over 2000m² of resin, carefully laid to create a smooth, low-maintenance surface.

As part of the design, the school’s logo was incorporated in a lighter resin shade, adding a bespoke touch to the installation. The result was a seamless, hard-wearing playground area alongside a stylish and practical pathway, enhancing both safety and accessibility throughout the academy grounds.

Mix made to match School brand colours

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I clean a resin bound surface?

A simple sweep with a stiff broom will remove debris. For deeper cleaning, use a pressure washer with a fan-type lance, keeping at least 200mm from the surface to avoid damage. Avoid turbo nozzles or high-pressure jets in one spot.

Resin bound surfaces are resistant to weed growth, but wind-blown seeds may settle on the surface. Regular brushing and occasional power washing will help prevent this. If needed, apply a mild weed killer that’s safe for resin.

For oil spills, clean the area as soon as possible using a biodegradable oil remover, followed by a rinse with warm water. Avoid harsh solvents or bleach, as they may discolour or damage the surface.

Yes – rock salt or standard de-icing products are safe to use on resin bound surfaces during cold weather. These won't damage the resin and will help maintain grip in icy conditions.

We recommend light maintenance every few months, including brushing, washing, and checking for any debris or algae in shaded areas. This will keep the surface looking clean and performing as intended for years to come.
