We won the tender to produce a colourful new play environment for Fowey Primary School. Our colourful creation was a combination of both 2D AND 3D graphics cleverly blended into a new multi coloured wet pour playground surface which we installed across the whole playground!! This new fun and colourful playground replaced an old tarmac surface which included ramps leading to the building, seamlessly flowing to the changing ground heights and entrances. In the middle of this playground are two well established trees, we used Agri-Flex bonded rubber around these as this is more pliable to tree roots. Watch our video of this colourful engaging playground We included the follow clever new 2D/3D playground graphics into this play space: 3D 1x 3D Octopus Tunnel with 3D tentacles 3x 3D Shark Heads 1x 3D Dolphin 1x 3D Head Of crocodile 1x 3D Miss Hippo 2D 1x 2D Lighthouse 4x 2D PalmTrees 1x 2D set of 6 Bubbles 3x 2D Fish 1x 2D Turtle 1x 2D Sea Star

Agri-Flex for Daily Mile running tracks and more
- Safety Surfacing
- 01-12-2018
AN IDEAL SOLUTION FOR DAILY MILE running tracks and more Agri-Flex is a 100% recycled rubber product that has been developed to be bound together with high-grade polymer resins to create a strong, durable and long lasting surface that resembles the look of aggregate and can be used within landscaping areas. It provides a resin bound stone effect. You can choose from a wide range of materials in a variety of colours. TK Play serve commercial and residential customers in the South of England and across the UK. Agri-Flex is ideal for tree pits and pathways. With great porosity, Agri-Flex retains oxygen and nutrients for the root system. It will not create trip points due to root heave and will not trap food or discarded sharp/broken glass. For pathways, it acts as a safer surface with excellent slip resistance. With Agri-Flex, there is no need for edges such as timber edges and pin kerbs that would only rot away. See our Daily Mile track challenge mapping to find your track position. AGRI-FLEX IS IDEAL FOR Tree pits Pathways Golf buggy tracks Seating areas Bin areas Shady muddy areas Skate parks

TK Play Ltd “Your local playground specialists”... A Devon based, family run company - proud to be working locally!
Beaford play space, Beaford, Winkleigh, Devon
Terry and his team have installed 3 pieces (so far) on our village green, and from Terry’s first visit through all the site planning, choice of equipment/manufacturer and advice on grant options -everything was first rate. Throughout the build the site was tidied away each day, allowing continual access around the fenced in site.
Too often what you see in the brochure isn’t what you see on site, however Terry’s team install to a very high standard; from the stone in the sub-base to the highest flag, ensuring the image becomes the reality.
The finish and fit, from the safety surface to the reinstatement of surrounding turf, was seamless and this high standard and zero requirement to revisit for snags, so delighted our grant giving partners on their site visit, that we have been successful in obtaining another large grant from them not 9 months later. Grant giving bodies set tight time frames to complete projects, which can seem daunting, but even with a manufacturer’s lead time of 6 weeks the team were finished with install and invoices sent to the grant body with over 2 weeks to spare.
Ask Terry to visit, you won’t be disappointed.
