Playground Peace of Mind

According to the CDC, over 70% of non-fatal playground injuries are a result of children falling. SmartCells® Mats and Flooring are specifically designed to absorb impact and protect children from fall-related injuries during indoor and outdoor play. From custom landing areas to complete wall-to-wall flooring, SmartCells Fall Protection products are engineered to reduce injuries related to falling. Fall Safe.

How SmartCells Work:

1. Stable Support: Optimized for Human Performance
how_it_works_01_98a5da24

SmartCells® Fall Protection technology has a “resting state” – much like a non-compressed spring – with a natural, supportive, upright force that does not impair balance or mobility.

2. Cushion on Impact: The More Force, the Softer it Becomes

SmartCells® Fall Protection Products compress and absorb pressure/impact energy from standing, weight-shifting, walking, or from the impact of a fall. After reaching a “critical threshold” the cellular structures soften and collapse laterally, without bottoming out.

3. Return Energy: In Phase with your Natural Movement

Like miniature springs, SmartCells® Fall Protection floor mats and products store impact energy until pressure is reduced or eliminated. The SmartCells® resilient rubber material and structure work “in-phase” with body movements to actively rebound, relieving joint aches and pains..
