Here at the buzz we have featured many ways in which Rubber Bark™ can be used including landscaping, playgrounds,
art,
transportation projects and wait, hey, we just thought of a new one... ROCK CLIMBING AND ATHLETIC GYMS!

Rock climbing gym in Minnesota using
rubber mulch as ground cover |
Most rock climbing gyms need a flexible and durable ground cover to help the climbers in "the fall zone" and last a long time with heavy foot traffic without eroding. Because most modern rock climbing gyms are equipped with synthetic walls and holders, rubber is a great choice to round out the flexibility of the gym. A lot of rock climbing gyms currently have rubber mats for climbers to sit (which are great alternatives, check out some options
here) but if safety is a first priority, rubber mulch is known to be more flexible, especially at higher heights.
Do you have other ways in mind that Rubber Bark™ can be used? Or know of an indoor rock climbing gym or athletic gym that would benefit from some Rubber Bark™?
If so, leave 'em in the comments section.
