EcoCed wood fibre – a sustainable and safe choice for playgrounds
Made from residues of eastern white cedar, a tree known for its high resistance to decay, EcoCed wood fibre is screened to ensure uniform size and shape. Our shredder is specifically designed to generate fewer slivers, reducing the risk of injury and splinters when children play at the park or school.
Available in bags or in bulk, wood fibre surfacing creates a clean, eco-friendly, naturally looking playground.

Reassuring advantages for parents
Wood fibre is a sound alternative to fine sand, which is also used as a playground surface:
- For layers of the same thickness, wood fibre absorbs the shock of falls from greater heights than sand.
- Animals do not use wood fibre as litter.
- Cedar wood fibre has a pleasant smell.
Wood fibre for playgrounds is a sustainable and safe choice for children:
- Great shock-absorption capacity
- Low maintenance costs
- Suppresses weed growth
- Contains no toxins or allergens
- Facilitates drainage to keep the surface clean and dry
Wood fibre has been tested in accordance with the ASTM F1292-09 standard. The standard requires a layer with a final thickness of 12 inches when compacted.
