Joliet, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/30/2015 -- One of the advantages of rubber mulch as opposed to wood mulch is that the recycled rubber components are non-flammable, as well as non-toxic. Whether the rubber mulch is used for landscaping, playgrounds or military obstacle courses, customers can be at ease in knowing that the material is not going to catch easily on fire or be a major factor in causing illness. The rubber mulch company, Recycled Rubber Products, LLC, is pleased to announce that the rubber mulch they offer is a safe substance according to valid testing results. Customers who are concerned about the possible harmful effects that rubber mulch can cause can be assured that the surface is not a hazardous material.
The rubber mulch product was tested by Testing Services, Inc. in Dalton, Georgia, in 2011 for flammability under the 16 Code of Federal Regulations Method of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act. The results showed that the mulch self-extinguished at a burn rate of 2.2 mm per second, which classified the material as a negative non-flammable solid. The rubber mulch also underwent a toxicity test that consisted of the material being immersed into a strong hydrochloric acid. The test resulted in no reaction to the crumb rubber, which exhibited that the chance of digestion if swallowed is very slim.
Rubber mulch can be used as a surface for a variety of applications, including horse arenas, playgrounds, landscaping, military obstacles courses and more. Recycled Rubber Products, LLC, offers high-quality colored rubber mulch in a variety of shades such as blue, red, brown and green. Customers looking to buy rubber mulch in bulk can rely on the company to provide them with the material they need.
