Play Chip BS Certified

Our BS Certified Play Chips are an amalgamation of Soft and Hardwood Chips, making them adaptable and appropriate for use in a wide range of areas such as pathways, chicken runs, horse manages, and garden borders.

These Certified Chips are a great option if you are on the hunt for hardy and long-lasting chips that will not get destroyed when placed in a garden. Visually, these Play Chips are a combination of golden, light and tan brown chips. They are a natural product that is suitable for gardens and outdoor areas with any theme and will complement the colour scheme.

Play Bark BS Certified for Your Garden Borders

Our Play Chips are not dissimilar to the Woodland Mulches we supply as they are both derived from natural wood. What differentiates them from each other are their shapes and sizes. Path Chips have a more uniform and regulated shape and size, most in square or rectangle shapes; on the other hand, Woodland Mulches are much for haphazard and varied in shape and size.

Due to the reasons mentioned above, you will be able to use Play chips around your garden, either as a border or a play area, and be reassured that the plants and soil in your garden will be protected in the same fashion as our Woodland Mulch would, but unlike the Mulch, the Play Chips are much more visually appealing. The Play Chips also work as added protection against the heavy rain, the sun and the cold during winter.

Play Chip BS Certified for Pathways

Our Play Chips are an effective way to create an easy and straightforward walkway leading around your property, or even a path leading to your garden. You can also use these chips to use in your front garden if you were looking to design something uncomplicated. Play Chips are durable and substantial, therefore creating a stable surface to walk on without disintegrating. The Play Chips are also on the heavier side so you do not have to worry about them being blown away by the wind.

One suggestion we would make in regards to the Play Chips is that, if you decide to have them in your garden, you should dig out the area where you want the chips to go, to a depth of 50mm and for extra security add in Scalpings to create a base layer. This will enable you to have a secure and stable base to work with rather than just plain clay ground.

A weed Membrane is also essential when creating a pathway. The worst thing that can happen on your shiny new pathway would be for weeds to start sprouting out. Therefore to counteract their spread, we suggest your purchase some Weed Membrane which will give your garden a clean, professional look.

The Story of Our Eco-Friendly Play Chip BS Certified

The development of our Play Chips did not add to deforestation as they were not chipped from virgin wood. We are able to confirm that all our Play Chips derive from trees that have already been cut down for other purposes by tree surgeons. 

Any remaining pieces from trees that have been cut down from gardens and public areas are then transported to a site where they are cut into shape using a wood chipper, after which they are mulched down, and then finally are brought to our Stone Zone warehouse ready to be sold.

As a result of going through this development process, we can guarantee that trees are not destroyed for the sole purpose of creating Play Chips. In fact, it is upcycling used parts and ensuring that the trees that have been cut down are not going to waste.

Moreover, all out Play Chips are acquired locally in and around Dorset, which ensures that we are keeping our carbon footprint at a minimum as the transport time and distance are low.

The reasons mentioned above are why our Play Chips are a great, environmentally friendly option, both for your garden and for us to supply.
