Evaluate FM-PU 8004 with the selected EPDM layer, water exposure, compatibility, mixing and curing conditions. Review the applicable technical documentation before project use.
Use color, patterns and graphics to create recognizable zones while keeping the surfacing structure, drainage and maintenance plan underneath the design.

Colors for Water-Play Stories
Explore ocean, animal, rainbow, geometric, color-zone and custom graphic directions. Approved single-color and mixed-color formulas can be recorded for repeatable factory production.
Design principle: Graphics enhance the experience; they do not replace the underlying Splash Pad surfacing structure.

Splash Pad Surfacing FAQ
Answers centered on water exposure, drainage, materials, design and quantity planning.
What type of surfacing is suitable for a Splash Pad?
An EPDM wet-pour surface combining EPDM Rubber Granules and PU Binder can be evaluated when water exposure, drainage, base condition, intended use and project requirements are reviewed together.
How does water exposure affect EPDM surfacing?
Repeated water exposure makes drainage, substrate moisture, binder selection, cleaning and curing conditions central to project planning.
How should drainage be considered in Splash Pad design?
Plan falls, drains, outlets and surrounding water routes before surfacing so the completed area works with the hydraulic and base design.
What EPDM colors are suitable for water-play areas?
Choose colors around visibility, themed design, surrounding equipment and the selected binder. Confirm approved colors with physical samples.
How do I choose PU Binder for Splash Pad surfacing?
FM-PU 8004 can be considered where bonding strength and water-play exposure are priorities. Final binder selection and mixing requirements should be confirmed for the selected EPDM layer and project.
Can Colorful 3D EPDM Graphics be used in Splash Pads?
They may be evaluated where the graphic system is suitable for the water-play design. Graphics enhance the experience; they do not replace the underlying surfacing structure.
How do I calculate EPDM and PU Binder quantities?
Use the project area and confirmed layer thickness in the FieldsMaster Material Quantity Calculator, then verify consumption and site allowances before ordering.
