Thanks to the tiles many benefits they can be used in ways we may have never even thought of which is what makes them such an exciting product. Below are just a few examples of how our Rubber Tiles have been commonly used and continue to be used:
Playground Flooring
Our interlocking rubber tiles can be used in both low-level commercial playgrounds and domestic play areas under smaller play equipment to create a stable, non-slip and low maintenance safety flooring. Tested to BS EN 1177 standards, each tile has a critical fall height of one meter so is suitable for low level child’s play. Available in Red, Green or Black you can create attractive, stimulating and vibrant ground whilst increasing the safety of the play equipment. As well as being used next to play and climbing equipment, some customers have also used the tiles in sensory gardens, outside exploring areas and so much more. The tiles create a soft, safe and decorative flooring to encourage children to continue their development safely outdoors whilst giving you piece of mind that there is a safe flooring where your children are playing.
Roof Tiles
The strength, durability, easy maintenance and weather resistance of our rubber tiles make them an ideal product for creating hard standing and attractive rubber surfaces for single pitch or flat roofs. A rubber roof is easy to create using our tiles by simply laying a waterproof substrate before using rubber adhesive to secure rubber tiles to the substrate. Once installed, you will have an attractive, noise reducing, thermally insulating and anti-slip roofing solution that will last for years to come.
Balcony Flooring
Our rubber tiles are a fantastic and easy to install product which is great for creating a balcony, terrace or veranda flooring that will carry benefits that other products are not able to produce. The previously mentioned benefits will allow you to have a soft surface so you are able to walk barefoot, a weather resistant floor which will not rot if exposed to water or be affected by extreme hot and cold temperatures and a secure covering that will not separate when walked on.
How Do You Install Rubber Tiles?
Interlocking Method (For use on a granular base):
Prepare your granular sub-base of soil or sand etc. You must ensure that your hardcore is level and well compacted by
using a vibration plate.
Measure and mark out your area where the tiles will be installed. Install an edging system around the perimeter of where
the tiles will be laid to prevent outer edges moving (this can be made from concrete, plastic, timber or rubber).
On top of the prepared granular sub-base, start in one corner and lay the tiles one row at a time, connecting and butting
together any neighbouring tiles using the interlocking pegs. Push the interlocking pegs half way into the pre-drilled holes
of a tile before pushing the next tile onto two of the pegs sticking out and ensure they are pressed tightly together with
no gaps visible. Repeat this process of laying one row at a time (either straight or brick-bond for more flexibility) and
connecting as you go along until the entire area has been filled.
If desired, polyurethane adhesive can be used in the joints of each tile to ensure total integrity and ensure the tiles are
fixed sufficiently to prevent migration of materials.
Non-Interlocking Method (For use on a solid base):
Prepare your sub-base, concrete or tarmac. Ensure your concrete is seal, fully cured, crack and gap free. Or ensure that
your tarmac is hard, flat, dry, fully cured over 30 days and is free of all impurities.
Measure and mark out your area where the tiles will be installed. Install an edging system around the perimeter of where
the tiles will be laid to prevent outer edges moving (this can be made from concrete, plastic, timber or rubber).
Using an appropriate polyurethane adhesive, apply 4 rows of the adhesive to under side of the tile in a 3mm bead. Secure
the tile in place and ensure there is a 3-4mm joint between each tile that can be filled with sand or another fine-grade,
porous medium which allows for tile expansion over time. Repeat this process until the area has been filled and the tiles
are butting with the edging installed earlier.
