Trailhead Park Splash Pad

Project Type: Splash Pad

Location: Winter Haven, FL

The City of Winter Haven, FL built the splash pad at Trailhead Park in 2016. The city opened it originally with a concrete finish for the surface and they've resurfaced it since about 3-4 times with different products. After experiencing some slip and fall incidents, they tried a rubberized paint with a sand-like substrate in it; however, injuries were still problematic. The aquatics division performed a significant amount of research as they searched for the best solution until Life Floor's Account Executive, reached out over FRPA's E-Connect and introduced them to Life Floor. The committee at Winter Haven ultimately opted for this safety surfacing, pleased with the fact that Life Floor met all of the requirements they needed to solve while also being certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN Standard 50.

Not only does it look awesome but it meets many criteria of fall and slip resistance and we’ve gotten nothing but great feedback from the product and that we did something to address our slip and fall issues.
