Children’s play surfacing in 3D!

A range of colourful characters to enjoy

At Star Rubber Environmental Ltd, we have a wide range of colourful and amazing 3D graphic animals, including fish, frogs, turtles, ladybirds, snails, dragons and penguins. Aimed at 2-10 year olds, these Star Buddies are ideal for schools, nurseries, public parks and open spaces. These detailed 3D graphic life-like creatures look great and are easy for children to climb on and use for imaginative play. With a wealth of experience in the trade, we are able to transfer children's (or anyone’s) art to surfaces. We can also customise our 3D graphic creatures to your specifications.

Log and stone steppers


We now create, supply and install specialised log and stone steppers perfect for any play needs that require a more natural feel. Our log and stone steppers are made entirely out of rubber to ensure a safer method of play than natural wood and stone. The log steppers do not rot like natural wooden steppers and the rock steppers do not collect moss unlike natural stone thus making both our products safer and easier to maintain.


Spheres and half spheres


We offer a wide range of spheres and half spheres for playgrounds, available in all of our colours and entirely made from rubber. Our full spheres are seamless and are made as one whole sphere, meaning there is no chance of it splitting in half. We offer any and all forms of design on these products, no colour is too wild, and no graphic is too difficult.
