Your Children. Our Business.

Since 2002, Soil Express has been providing Texas and Oklahoma with a superior and competitively-priced service for maintaining playground safety. Our expertise lies in the inspection, manufacturing, and installation of playground safety surface material, particularly engineered wood fiber (a.k.a., playground mulch, wood chips, etc.). With a Certified Playground Safety Inspector on staff and IPEMA certified playground safety surface material, we can help ensure that your playground meets the standards set by the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission.

You wouldn’t take a chance with your children’s safety. So, neither do we. That is why our material is routinely submitted on an annual basis for certification by the International Playground Equipment Manufacturers Association (IPEMA). As a result, you can be assured that our playground wood chips meet ASTM standards F1292 (impact attenuation) and F2075 (engineered wood fiber). In addition, our engineered wood fiber is ADA compliant.

1. SPEED: A typical installation can be performed within two hours, including clean-up. This ensures minimal disruption of your activity schedule.

2. SMALL CREWS: One or two uniformed professional installers will complete the job. This is especially important for those who need to maintain the security of their site. Each of our blower truck operators have been screened in order to ensure compliance with Texas Senate Bill 9.

3. EQUIPMENT: Our trucks remain stationary and remote during the installation process, virtually eliminating any potential damage and costly repairs to the playground or the surrounding structures or landscaping.

4. MATERIAL PLACEMENT: Pneumatic application allows for a very even distribution of safety surface material and the ability to mound the material under identified “fall zones,” such as the outlet of a slide or beneath a set of monkey bars.
