Product Information

The product is exactly as pictured, has a beautiful deep red colour, large pieces of bark and a very high quality product. In play-schemes, when specific 'play bark' is used at the required depth, the natural cushioning ability of bark helps to protect children against injury, provides slip resistance and in most cases, prevents friction burns. Obviously other factors such as colour and texture will also play a part in the likelihood of staining. Our products are delivered in convenient bulk bags being able to fit 750 litres or 1 cubic metre depending on the product.

Fire resistant characteristics, confirmed by testing in accordance with BS 4790:1987, make Bark Nuggets particularly useful in areas of potential fire risk, e. These nuggets are also play area certified to BSEN 1177 meaning they are also perfect for use in play areas as an impact absorbion safety surface, they will last longer than almost any other play bark due to the chunky size and lack of fine particles. Ensuring paving has good slip resistant qualities is important for outdoor usage, especially when used by children or elderly people.Please Note: Due to the nature of this product and the screening process, oversized pieces of wood may occur. Endorsed by the RHS, Melcourt Bark Nuggets are also fire tested to BS4790 meaning they have the relevant fire resistant characteristics that makes the product particularly useful in areas of potential fire risk such as car parks, vehicle fuel filling stations or around public areas such as offices, walkways and housing estates. At AWBS we take our environmental responsibility very seriously and we endeavour to offer eco-friendly, recycled and secondary products as much as possible. The flexural strength is important as it ensures the paving is not overly brittle which would cause difficulties when handling and laying. Whilst all practical measures are taken to remove foreign matter such as metal, glass and plastic we cannot guarantee the complete absence of all extraneous material.

Our bark is produced from mixed conifer with a high percentage of spruce, with 90% of particles falling within the range of 8-35mm. Leave a gap of approximately 25mm-50mm (1″-2″) between the bark and base of the plant, to protect delicate plants. It provides a degree of protection against the more extreme elements for plant roots, but they double up as a great looking addition!Slip resistance testing is a complex and varied area however the two main tests for domestic paving are either the pendulum test (PTV) or the ramp test (R rating). Their natural properties make them a fitting choice for water features, bringing a rustic charm to any setting. Pine Bark Nuggets is a premium-grade, natural bark which lasts much longer than other bark products. Hoping they last as long as advertised (5-8yrs) as everything else I've used has mulched in 18 months and this is for a path so looking for the slowest breakdown possible.
