Corner Guards and Wall Guards

 For parents, it is important to the development of their child that they are not ‘wrapped up in cotton wool’. However, allowing your child to play freely does not mean that parents have to compromise on their children’s safety. There are is a wide range of floor and wall padding available which can prevent injuries sustained by children if they trip or fall whilst playing. However, such padding is not only suitable for use by parents for their children, it can also be used in public buildings such as hospitals and sports centres to prevent injuries through tripping or falling.

Wall Guards

 Wall cushioning is suitable for use in playgrounds, schools and children’s play areas in parks and other public places. This padding can be installed quickly and easily and can dramatically reduce the likelihood of injury caused by trips, falls and collisions. For use of children, such padding is available in a spectrum of colours such as red, blue and green amongst others. These wall guards are highly durable and are resistant to shock, making them also suitable for use in sports centres where there is a risk of trips and collisions. 

Floor Guards

 Floor guards, like wall guards, are highly durable and resistant to shocks and scratches, meaning that the use of such padding drastically reduces the likelihood of serious injury being sustained following a trip or fall. These floor guards are also available in a wide range of colours and can be applied for several purposes such as for use in kindergartens, schools, play areas in retail outlets and also in leisure centres. Also, like the wall guards, the floor cushioning is quick and easy to install.

 The use of these wall and floor guards is a guaranteed way for parents to have peace of mind as these guards allow children to play freely and, most importantly, safely.

Corner and Wall Safety Cushioning

The well-being and safety of a child is understandably a major concern to any parent and although there is the old and very true saying that “You cannot wrap them up in cotton wool”, there are other precautions that can be taken to ensure that a child is able to play happily in a safe environment.

Nevertheless, safety does not only apply to young children, many people of all ages each year are injured by walking into, colliding with or falling onto sharp edges such as the corners of tables and walls. There is, however, a selection of easy to apply and durable safety cushioning for corners and walls available in a selection of colours suitable for any purpose.

Corner Protection

Sharp edges, such as the corners on tables, stairs and counters, can be dangerous and cause injury if someone were to fall on them. However, a range of safety cushioning is available which can help to dramatically reduce the risk of injury resulting from collisions, trips and falls onto sharp corners. This cushioning, made from an integral urethane skin rather than common PU material, complies with safety regulations and is quick and easy to install.

Such corner padding is suitable for a wide variety of applications and comes in a range of colours accordingly. For example: red, yellow, green and blue for use in kindergartens, schools, theme parks or even just around the home and white, brown and grey for use in hospitals, retirement homes and public buildings.

Wall Padding

As with the corner padding, wall cushioning is quick and easy to install and it’s thickness makes it highly durable, being resistant to shocks and scratches. This cushioning is also available in a spectrum of colours for any required purpose from schools and amusement parks to public places and sports areas.
