California Sports Surfaces® Supports Playground Resurface Project in Senegal
In collaboration with Germany’s AV Syntec Europa, California Sports Surfaces Australia provides resources for its Rebound Ace® Synpave System to be installed for a community playground in the country.
ANDOVER, Mass. – October 9, 2024 – For California Sports Surfaces and its parent organization, ICP Group, making a positive community impact is a top priority. That is why the organization recently supported a playground resurfacing project in Senegal, using its Rebound Ace® range of products.
The project was a collaboration with AV Syntec, a German sports surfaces distribution partner of California Sports Surfaces Rebound Ace®, and several community partners. Rebound Ace® products were chosen for the surface of this project due to their superior UV resistance and longevity on hard courts in harsh climates.
The paved substrate was a difficult canvas to turn into a usable court. Rebound Ace® Sports & Rec was chosen as the basecoat for its superior adhesion qualities. This was followed with an acrylic filler coat to level out the playing surface and finished with Rebound Ace® Synpave as the topcoat, giving an aesthetically pleasing finish in the colors of Senegal as well as a fantastic surface to play on.
“This was an amazing project, and we jumped at the opportunity to participate,” said Caroline Field, Vice President and General Manager, Australia and Asia Pacific, California Sports Surfaces. “Our representatives who supplied and installed the Rebound Ace® system were able to witness the joy of the children using their new playground—and that’s the kind of impact we hope to have in communities around the world.”
