From the supplier: Statistics on playground surface injuries were compiled from the Consumer Products Safety Commission and the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System to evaluate the safety aspects of surface materials. Results show that 80% of the surface injuries were caused by unsuitable materials such as asphalt and concrete. The type of injuries sustained were found to be different for various playground surfaces.
