Universally designed - all natural

ShockDeck™

ShockDeck™ is a system for building an impact-absorbing ground cover using wooden decking. The solution is perfect for universally designed playgrounds and activity areas, and does not result in microplastic emissions. The ground cover is certified for fall heights up to 160 cm.

Environmentally friendly and universally designed ground cover

ShockDeck™ provides effective shock absorption for safe play on standard terrace boards. It replaces fall protection such as poured rubber or artificial grass and is suitable as a surface for all types of activity and play equipment.

  • Fall height up to 160 cm (EN 1177:2018).
  • Supplied as shock absorbers with adjustable feet. The wooden decking itself is easily built from pressure treated wood in standard dimensions.
  • Calculate approximately 4 shock absorbers per square meter. Choose the number of shock absorbers below.

Design and building
ShockDeck™ design
  • Approx. 3.5 shock absorbers per square meter.
  • The decking is constructed using standard Cu-impregnated terrace boards measuring 100 or 120×28 mm, mounted on battens measuring 30×48 mm.
  • Harder wood species such as larch should not be used.
  • Construction is done with the edges of the decking fixed to the ground. The specified shock absorption is achieved 30 cm from the edge.
