Premium Playground & Landscaping Safety Surface
Create a professional-grade, long-lasting outdoor surface with Slip-Not Black Rubber Chippings — the UK’s trusted choice for schools, councils, installers and homeowners.
Made from 100 % recycled UK tyres, these soft, non-slip chippings provide certified impact protection, all-weather durability and a smart, clean finish that stays looking new for years.
Safe & Impact Absorbing
-
Independently tested to BS EN 1177: 2008 for playground safety.

Built to Last – No Rot, No Freezing, No Fading
Unlike bark or mulch that decomposes and blows away, Slip-Not chippings are engineered for decade-long performance.
They retain their deep black colour, resist UV, rain and frost, and stay in place all year.
Once installed, expect a lifespan of 10 + years with zero maintenance.
