Rosehill TPV ® used on adventure play tower in Newcastle, Australia

Project Overview

Creating softfall surfacing for this landmark adventure play tower on Newcastle’s waterfront meant thinking beyond ground level.

With rope climbs, tube slides and elevated walkways spread across multiple levels, impact-absorbing surfacing was required not only at the base of the structure, but across three separate platform decks high above the ground.

Rosehill TPV® was selected for its ability to conform to the complex geometry of each platform, creating a seamless wet-pour surface across curved and irregular spaces while delivering consistent impact absorption throughout the play tower.

In Australia’s demanding climate, where UV exposure can quickly degrade many materials, TPV’s long-term elasticity and resistance to weathering help ensure the surface continues to perform year after year.
