The first one is the playground mats. Maybe they are the most common because we can see and use in many fields. Permeable playground mats are finished in a short time. What is more, the performance of them achieves each indicator. Because of the easy repairs and affordable prices, they became the first choice of colleges and schools. One type of playground mat is not the most stander, so it is suitable for the kinder gardens or primary schools. In usual, we know playground mats are mainly in red and green colors, but actually they can be made in many colors.
