Versatex
A hardy surface perfect for both wet and dry surrounds.
Ultra-resilient and perfect for areas that need a tactile finish, Polysoft Versatex is a broadcast system that can be utilised to great effect in wet and dry surrounds.
A low profile makes it suitable for retrofitting unsightly concrete or painted surfaces. Unlike other systems which require a setdown, Versatex needs minimum site preparation. This reduces costs and makes it more economical than similar products on the market.
Because Versatex is impervious, it is easier to clean and maintain, and slip-resistance ensures a safer surface in all types of weather.
Versatex is easier on the eye, too. It is available in 18 different colour pebbles and unlimited blends.
Typical applications include inside and outside pool surrounds, amenity rooms, showers, change rooms and pathways.

Client Testimonials
So much fun here, my kids love the Splash zone. And I love the non-slip floor, I don’t need to worry about them slipping.

In the past, we tried EPDM, rubber tiles, artificial grass and more, but we were not satisfied until we discovered PolySoft. It has hundreds of advantages.
REX QIN
Project Manager, UpGreen Group, Beijing, China
The area has held its colour and integrity under the happy pounding of the thousands of tiny feet over the last 10 years.
TRACEY LAWSON
Project officer, facilities management, Royal Melbourne Children’s hospital, Melbourne, Australia
I am certainly very happy with PolySoft, as it holds up so well.
NEIL HOBBS
Director, Harris Hobbs Landscapes, Canberra, ACT, Australia
I like it a lot, they did a good job putting it in. When the park reopened, people loved it. It is beautiful. It really looks nice. It will have an impact on reducing the number of slips and falls.
BILL KING
Director of parks and enrichment services for the city of Mount Vernon, Washington state, USA
We are happy with the product so far. It’s been installed for four to five years and it is much, much better than the previous product which only lasted for three to four months.
If you have a hard material, it won't absorb any impact, it’s better to have a soft-fall floor. We believe PolySoft is very nice for the kids.
ALBERT ABOUD
Construction engineer, Banyule city council, Victoria, Australia
The light-blue and dark-blue PolySoft surface has retained its vibrant hues, it is the best surface we’ve come across.
SCOTT SCHEFFERLY
Duty manager at Leisurelink Aquatic and Recreation Centre, in Geelong, Victoria, Australia
PolySoft had the colours and the track record in materials for what we needed to do. We needed a material that could go on a concrete floor and that we could shape up for water play.

Polysoft is the coolest product I’ve walked on in hot weather.

At Ras Tanura, a housing project for senior and expatriate employees and their families, we installed PolySoft in two splash parks at either end of the eight-kilometre-long development. The architect specified PolySoft from the start, because of its safety features.
Having a product that doesn’t burn kids’ feet when they’re playing is very important.
The managing director, Ophelia Zhu, is very responsive to enquiries, and the company provided valuable training and clear instructions on how to lay the surfaces. We have a great relationship with PolySoft, which helps us carry out our work efficiently and to the highest standard.
NABIL RASHIDI
Managing Director, PremierQ, Kingdom of Bahrain
Safety was the resort’s first priority and, unsurprisingly, enduring quality was also among Bvlgari’s specifications.
The rounded granules give a premium look to the site.
The hotel’s managers are very happy with the way PolySoft colours maintain their polish, complementing the overall design values of the Bvlgari group, while providing a safe haven for their most valued guests.
SYED WAJID
Director, Tanseeq projects, UAE
The surface is firm and consistent, and at the same time provides good impact absorption.
The colours are very attractive, and the resistance to fading is one of the best we’ve used in playground surfacing.
