Discover the ingredients of our EPDM granules
Learned from tradition – the «Swiss Cheese Principle»
Foamed granules thanks to innovative SCP technology
SCP stands for “Swiss Cheese Principle”: similar to Swiss cheese, each individual granulate has tiny air holes / vents. This unique foam structure gives the EPDM base layer granules excellent damping properties and a high degree of flexibility. Thanks to the SCP technology, BSG granules are ideal for fall protection surfaces and guarantee maximum fall protection on children’s playgrounds.

Further grain sizes available on request!
The virgin EPDM granules were specially developed as base layer granules in fall protection systems. They are therefore ideally suited as a component in systems where special requirements are placed on force reduction. It therefore offers the highest level of fall protection exactly where it is needed most: on children’s playgrounds.

Recycled rubber granules for base layers
Recycling granules made from new rubber?
In addition to our EPDM base layer granules especially for fall protection systems, we also offer black recycled rubber granules. This material consists exclusively of excess material from industrial production. It is as good as new and is obtained directly after production. In this way, it passes extensive control processes and comes from traceable sources.
Recycling granules with outstanding properties
As opposed to many alternative products, GEZOLAN offers recycled rubber granules made from excess material of industrial production processes that is as good as new. Conventional recycled rubber granules have already gone through at least one product life cycle (e.g. as motor vehicle tires) and as a result may have lost their positive properties in terms of elasticity and UV resistance. Since GEZOLAN uses granules made from industrial scrap material that has never been in use, the mechanical and technical properties are identical to that of a new product.
GEZOLAN recycled rubber granules are only available in the color Black.
