Recycled rubber pavers and tiles offer several benefits, making them an attractive choice for various outdoor and indoor applications. Here’s a summary of their key advantages:
- Eco-Friendly: One of the most significant benefits of recycled rubber pavers is their eco-friendliness. These pavers are primarily made from used tyres, which helps reduce landfill waste and promotes recycling.
- Safety: Recycled rubber surfaces are known for their slip resistance, even when wet, which makes them a safer option compared to traditional materials like cement or clay. This slip resistance is particularly beneficial in areas prone to moisture.
- Low Maintenance: These pavers require less maintenance than conventional alternatives. They are durable and can withstand various weather conditions without significant wear and tear, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements.
- Comfort: Recycled rubber paver tiles provide a comfortable and protective floor covering. They are softer underfoot compared to hard materials like concrete, which can be beneficial for areas where people stand or walk frequently.
- Aesthetic Appeal: These pavers are available in various colours and designs, allowing for customization to match different aesthetic preferences. They can enhance the appearance of patios, walkways, decks, and other outdoor spaces.
- Water Management: Rubber pavers are somewhat porous, enabling water to pass through and preventing pooling on the surface. This feature can be advantageous in managing water runoff and maintaining a dry surface.
- Quicker Installation: Installing recycled rubber pavers is generally quicker and easier compared to traditional paving materials, which can save time and labour costs.
Overall, recycled rubber pavers and tiles are a sustainable, safe, and practical choice for various applications, offering a blend of environmental benefits, durability, and aesthetic flexibility.

How do you Install Rubber Pavers/Tiles?
Installing rubber pavers/tiles is a great way to create a versatile and long-lasting flooring option. Here are the general steps to help you install rubber pavers/tiles:
- Prepare the Area: Clear the area where you want to install the rubber pavers/tiles. Make sure the surface is clean, level, and free from any debris.
- Lay a Base: Depending on the surface, you may need to lay a base. For hard surfaces like concrete, you may not need a base. For softer surfaces like grass or soil, you may need to install a base of compacted sand or gravel to provide a stable foundation.
- Start Placing Pavers: Begin laying the rubber pavers/tiles from one corner or edge of the area. You can align them in a straight line or in a pattern depending on your preference.
- Interlock the Pavers: If your rubber pavers have interlocking edges, make sure to fit them together snugly to create a secure and seamless surface.
- Cutting: If you need to fit the pavers/tiles around obstacles or edges, you may need to cut them to size using a utility knife or a rubber cutting tool.
- Trimming: Trim any excess material or edges to ensure a neat and uniform appearance.
- Secure the Pavers: To prevent shifting or movement, you can use adhesive to secure the edges of the pavers.
- Finishing: Once all the pavers are in place, walk over the surface to ensure they are securely installed and adjust as needed.
Remember to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation specific to the type of rubber pavers/tiles you have. If you encounter any challenges during the installation process, feel free to ask for further guidance.
