    Robinson Saw Mill Works - the producers of "PGC" a loose laid wood fibre play surface from somewhere in the western US briefly describe their product. (Dec, '96)

    Rosebud - what I want to know is why this obsession with "Citizen Kane"?. Anyway this is a very nice site from Boise, Idaho in the USA that has lots of good detail on their "Fall Safe 200G" product which is a wood based loose fill system. Good explanations of the product, interesting links, and you can get a free hat. (Dec, 96)

    Solimentto (HK) Co. Ltd. - Hong Kong importer of among many other things safety surfaces for children's playgrounds. Not much information here on what they actually sell, but this would no doubt be a good contact point for anyone in SE Asia. They also do a wide range of sports surfaces. (Dec, 96)

    Surface America - excellent pages which explain what their synthetic bound systems are all about. (Dec, 96)

    Shade Sytems
