Will Rainbow Mulch blow away?

Will Rainbow Mulch blow away?

Rainbow Mulch is specifically manufactured so the shredded rubber pieces settle together naturally once installed. While the material is softer and less dense than many recycled tire rubber products, the shape and cut of the pieces help the surface knit together and stay in place during everyday weather and play.

Unlike many loose-fill surfaces, Rainbow Mulch was designed to create a more stable playground surface over time. The rubber composition helps reduce shifting while maintaining cushioning, softness, and drainage performance.


Can a Leaf Blower Be Used?

Yes — many customers use leaf blowers to remove leaves and lightweight debris from the surface.

Using a lower blower setting and keeping airflow angled slightly above the surface can help clear debris while minimizing disturbance to the mulch.


Weather and Drainage Performance

Because Rainbow Mulch does not absorb water like traditional wood mulch, it maintains drainage performance during rain and changing weather conditions.

The material is designed for long-term outdoor use in playgrounds, landscaping applications, and recreation spaces.


Maintenance and Surface Care

Routine maintenance is minimal and typically includes:

  • Removing debris or leaves

  • Occasional surface leveling in high-traffic areas

  • Checking edging or borders periodically
