Welcome To Detroit Rubber Supply

Rubber Mulch

Rubber mulch is a newfangled landscape material made from recycled rubber, especially from used tyres which make it a versatile and environmentally sound alternative to traditional mulches offering a wide range of benefits for gardens, playgrounds, and other landscaping projects.

Rubber mulch manufacturing starts with gathering used tires. Those tires are then cleaned and shredded into small pieces. After removing the metal and fiber parts, only the rubber remains. These rubber pieces are further processed to create a uniform size and shape. 

Some natural dyes were added to this processed rubber to make it colorful and durable rubber mulch that comes in different colors as well as textures. Detroit Rubber Supply has incorporated this innovative way to redefine the lifecycle of rubber materials. Our company embraces sustainability and tries its best to renew used or worn-out rubber for effective further use.

Uses of Rubber Mulch

Rubber mulch has numerous applications across various sectors such as:

Landscaping where it improves the beauty of gardens, flower beds, and sidewalks among others while also having additional advantages like weed suppression or moisture retention.

Playgrounds since its cushioning ability make it an ideal surface for play areas lowering cases of injuries from falling off.

Gardening given that rubber mulch maintains optimum soil temperature, prevents weed growth and holds adequate moisture content making it ideal for plant health.
