2063C-Antioxidant Red EPDM Rubber Granules

Anti oxidation red EPDM rubber granules are a new generation of elastic filling material specially developed for high demand outdoor scenes. They are produced using a non sulfurized process, which greatly improves the antioxidant performance at the molecular level. The red color is long-lasting and bright, not easy to fade, and remains stable under high temperature and strong ultraviolet environments. The product is odorless and meets food grade hygiene standards, and is widely used in fields such as plastic running tracks, children's playgrounds, permeable walkways, and garden landscapes. With over 25 years of industry expertise and a complete set of advanced production lines, we support full-color and multi granule flexible customization to meet the differentiated procurement needs of global customers.

FAQ

Q1: What is the essential difference between antioxidant red EPDM granules and ordinary red granules?

A: The core difference lies in the sulfur free process. Ordinary sulfur containing EPDM will gradually oxidize and decompose under the action of ultraviolet radiation and high temperature, resulting in red fading and powdering. Our sulfur free technology makes the molecular structure more stable, greatly enhances antioxidant capacity, and maintains color retention far beyond traditional products. It remains bright and new even after long-term use.

Q2: What specific indicators are reflected in the improvement of antioxidant performance?

A: This is mainly reflected in three aspects - the service life is increased by more than 3 times, the performance retention rate is increased by more than 5 times, and the elasticity and tensile strength are increased by 2-3 times (with a tensile strength of 4-7 megapascals). This means that under the same laying conditions, our granule decay rate is extremely slow, and the overall cost of use is significantly reduced.

Q3: Can we customize other colors and granule sizes? Is there a minimum order quantity requirement?

A: Fully supported. We offer full-color options (red, blue, green, yellow, black, white, and any mixed colors) and customized services for multiple granule sizes (0.5-6mm), with samples available for replication. The minimum order quantity is flexible, and we can respond quickly from testing samples of tens of kilograms to bulk purchases of tens of tons.

Q4: What does food grade standard mean? Can the children's playground be used?

A: Food grade hygiene standards mean that the product meets the safety level for contact with food in terms of raw material selection and production processes. Odorless and harmless, it is an ideal choice for scenarios such as kindergartens, playgrounds, and community children's activity areas. Environmental testing can be easily passed.

Q5: How about high temperature resistance and aging resistance? Which climate regions are suitable?

A: The sulfur free technology endows the product with better high temperature resistance and strong anti-aging capability. Even in the high temperature and humidity environment in the south or the strong ultraviolet environment in the north, the color and performance are not easy to decay. Suitable for both North and South, adaptable to all climates.

If you are facing challenges such as rapid fading of venue red color, granule oxidation powdering, constant odor complaints, and renovation after one or two years of use, antioxidant red EPDM granules are born for these practical challenges. It allows your project to maintain color and performance for a long time after delivery, without the need for repeated maintenance costs or concerns about environmental protection and safety testing - one installation, long-lasting peace of mind.

Advantages and Application Value

Strong antioxidant: sulfur free process, stable molecular structure, long-lasting bright color, not easy to change color - the red site remains new for a long time, the visual effect does not decay, and the project quality is improved

Odorless: No sulfur-containing components, sulfuric acid does not decompose under high temperature/ultraviolet radiation - can be used indoors and outdoors, zero odor complaints, more reassuring for children's scenes

Ultra long lifespan: increased service life by 3 times, performance retention rate by more than 5 times - significantly reducing refurbishment frequency and maintenance costs, with higher return on investment

High elasticity and high tensile strength: tensile strength of 4-7 megapascals, increased elasticity by 2-3 times - comfortable foot feel, strong impact resistance, preferred for sports venues

High temperature resistance and anti-aging: stable performance in high temperature environment, greatly improved anti-aging capability -- North South universal, all-weather adaptation, wider application range

Food grade environmental protection: meets food grade hygiene standards and has antioxidant function - easily passes environmental testing, suitable for high demand scenarios such as kindergartens and amusement parks

Three dimensional texture: low packing density, strong water chestnut feeling - after laying, the visual hierarchy is distinct, with both aesthetics and professionalism

Typical application scenarios

Plastic track/track: antioxidant and color retention, trampling resistance, long lifespan

Children's playground/kindergarten: food grade safety, odorless, elastic cushioning

Permeable Colorful Trail: Strong weather resistance, long-lasting color, beautiful and durable

Landscape/Roof Greening: UV resistant, non fading, highly decorative

Fitness trail/basketball court auxiliary layer: high elasticity, impact resistance, comfortable foot feel

Customer Application Cases

Renovation Project of Red Track and Field Runway in a Municipal Sports Center

The sports center was built in 2016, and the original track used traditional sulfur red EPDM granules. However, after less than three years of operation, severe fading occurred - the red color turned dark red or even white, and the surface was clearly powdery. After the rainy season, the venue emitted a clear rubber smell and received multiple complaints from athletes.

When bidding for renovation in 2024, the owner explicitly proposed three hard indicators: a red retention rate of not less than 90% (5 years), zero odor detection, and a tensile strength of not less than 5 megapascals. After multiple rounds of screening, our company's antioxidant sulfur free red EPDM granules (granule size 1-3mm) were ultimately selected, with a total usage of approximately 150 tons.

The project was completed in the summer of 2024 and verified by a third-party testing agency: no odor indicators were detected, the tensile strength was measured to be 6.1 megapascals, and the red color difference value Δ E was less than 1.5 (almost unchanged to the naked eye). As of the end of 2025, the runway has been in operation for over 18 months, experiencing a whole summer high temperature and two rainy seasons, with a red retention rate of over 96% and no pulverization phenomenon.

Customer feedback: "Previously, it had to be refurbished every two years, which was very expensive. This time, we used your antioxidant granules, and after running for a year and a half, they still looked like new, saving a lot of later costs
