Playground Markings & Safety Flooring
Manufactured in South Africa
Creating safe, engaging, and durable playground environments requires specialist surfacing products that meet safety standards while encouraging physical activity and creative play. Specialized Coating Systems (SCS) manufactures playground surfacing solutions at our Boksburg facility, covering both decorative markings and impact-absorbing safety flooring.
Our PLASTIFORM® preformed thermoplastic playground markings transform ordinary surfaces into interactive, educational play spaces. These factory-manufactured markings are heat-applied to asphalt or primed concrete, creating vibrant, durable games and designs that encourage movement, creativity, and social interaction. From hopscotch and number grids to custom educational designs, these markings last significantly longer than painted alternatives.
For fall-height protection, our seamless rubber crumb soft fall flooring provides critical impact absorption, meeting safety requirements for playground equipment installation. These colourful, poured-in-place surfaces combine safety performance with aesthetic appeal, creating inviting play environments while protecting children from fall injuries.
Both product ranges are manufactured and quality-controlled at our Boksburg facility. As a South African manufacturer, SCS provides schools, municipalities, property developers, and playground contractors with locally produced products, technical installation guidance, and reliable supply for projects across Southern Africa.

Frequently Asked Questions
What playground products does SCS manufacture?
SCS manufactures two main playground product ranges: PLASTIFORM® preformed thermoplastic playground markings (interactive games and educational designs) and seamless rubber crumb soft fall safety flooring for impact absorption beneath playground equipment.
How long do thermoplastic playground markings last?
Preformed thermoplastic playground markings are significantly more durable than paint, typically lasting 6–8 times longer depending on traffic and surface conditions. They are heat-bonded to the surface, creating a permanent, vibrant marking that resists wear, UV, and weather.
Does SCS soft fall flooring meet safety standards?
Yes. SCS rubber crumb soft fall flooring is designed to provide critical fall height protection, absorbing impact energy to reduce injury risk from falls associated with playground equipment.
Can SCS create custom playground designs?
Yes. SCS can produce custom preformed thermoplastic designs including educational themes, school logos, custom games, and bespoke layouts to suit specific playground requirements and age groups.
