Ground Surfacing

Ground Surfacing

Every great playground is built from the ground up

The surfaces children run, roll, climb and tumble on shape how a space looks, how it’s used and how safe it feels.

Our ground surfacing range covers synthetic grass, timber decks, rubber features and sports fields, each designed around your site and installed by our own team as part of an AS 4685 compliant playscape.

Whether you need a soft green lawn that’s ready to use after rain, a level deck that brings a sloping block into play, sculpted rubber mounds for toddlers or open space for ball games and races, we’ll match the right surface to every zone of your centre.

Why AG Playscapes?

Backed by more than 30 years’ experience and over 500 projects delivered, trust AG Playscapes to create custom playground elements that spark imaginative play and fit your space perfectly meeting AS 4685 safety standards.

Every custom element is designed and built by our Australian team. Because we fabricate in-house, including our own shade sails and posts, we control quality from the first sketch to the final bolt. Materials and finishes are chosen to handle Australian conditions and the wear of daily commercial use. One team designs it, builds it and stands behind it.

Safety is built into every design decision, not added at the end. All our custom elements are designed and installed to AS 4685, with careful attention to fall heights, impact areas, barriers and entrapment risks. We pair each element with the right ground surfacing, so the whole play space works together.

Safe doesn’t mean boring. We design for managed risk, giving children the challenge they need to test their limits and build confidence in an environment educators can trust.

We start with how children actually play. Our custom elements are designed to build gross motor skills, balance and strength, spark imaginative and cooperative play, and offer sensory experiences and quiet retreats. Every element has a purpose in a child’s day, from the thrill of the climb to the calm of a reading nook.

Childcare is our specialty. We understand the National Quality Framework and design with Quality Area 3, the physical environment, in mind. Our elements support mixed age groups, clear supervision and inclusive play, and are built to withstand the daily demands of a busy centre. We also design for OSHC services, schools and councils.

With more than 30 years in the industry and over 500 projects delivered across NSW, QLD, VIC, SA and WA, we know what works in real childcare environments. We manage everything end to end, from design and fabrication through to installation, so you deal with one team the whole way. See our latest builds on our YouTube channel.
