Description
Technical Parameters
Rubber Shock Pad for Artificial Grass
Rubber Shock Pad for Artificial Grass is a composite elastic underlayment specifically engineered for synthetic turf systems in garden, landscape, and backyard environments. Produced from a 50% EVA and 50% PE formulation, this pad delivers superior impact absorption, weed suppression, and drainage support while maintaining a density of 145–150 kg/m³ per ASTM D1817. This pad in 1.45m × 1.1m sheets with thickness options of 2cm, 2.5cm, 3cm, and 5cm to suit different sub-base conditions and safety requirements.

Why Choose This Composite Formulation
The 50/50 EVA-PE blend offers distinct advantages over traditional polyurethane or recycled rubber pads. First, it contains no heavy metals or phthalates, verified through ROHS and REACH compliance. Second, the material emits no rubber odor, making it suitable for enclosed backyard installations adjacent to patios or playhouses. Third, the closed-cell structure does not absorb pet urine or standing water, allowing simple hose-off cleaning. Fourth, the SGS-certified flame retardancy (EN 71-2 PASS) provides peace of mind for applications near barbecue areas or fire pits.

Landscape architects specify this pad beneath artificial grass on rooftop gardens where weight is a constraint (density similar to mid-grade foam). Homeowners installing synthetic lawn over existing concrete or compacted clay use the pad to create a resilient, non-slip playing surface for children and pets.
Packaging, Storage, Handling and Transportation
The Rubber Shock Pad for Artificial Grass is flat-packed in poly-wrapped bundles of 25 sheets (for 2cm thickness) to 10 sheets (for 5cm thickness). Bundles are palletized horizontally with edge protectors. Store flat in a dry indoor area; do not store on edge as this may cause permanent bowing. Optimal storage temperature is 15–30°C. The product is non-hazardous for international shipping and exempt from fumigation requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does the pad need to be glued or fastened down?
A: For most residential installations over compacted sub-base, the weight of the artificial grass plus infill holds the pad in place without adhesive. For sloped or high-wind areas, use landscape staples through the nonwoven layer every 1–2 meters.
Q: Can I install this pad directly over existing grass?
A: No. Existing vegetation must be removed and the area compacted to a stable sub-base. Installing over live grass will result in uneven settling and organic decomposition gases that may cause the pad to bubble.
Q: How does the 50% EVA + 50% PE pad compare to XPE foam alternatives?
A: This composite offers higher tear resistance (1.2–1.4 N/mm vs. 0.8–1.0 N/mm for standard XPE) and better dimensional stability under temperature fluctuation. The added PE component reduces compression set over time, meaning the pad stays thicker longer under heavy use.
