Sarasota mixed-color EPDM rubber granules

Sarasota is a pre-mixed blend of 3 granule colors: 40% CH-15, 15% CH-47, 45% CH-07, per the Resin Rubber color blends chart. Those percentages describe the granule colors in the bag, not a binder mixing ratio.

Sarasota is one of the lighter options, and lighter colors generally stay cooler in direct sun than dark ones, which suits barefoot areas. It will show dirt sooner, so plan on regular rinsing. Confirm slip resistance and drainage for wet areas with your installer. Blues and teals are popular around pools because they tie the deck to the water.

Popular pairings are Resin Rock Blue, Light Blue and Dark Grey. Use a contrasting solid color for borders, inlays or zone markings around a Sarasota field. Check the pairing with physical samples, since screens do not show granule color accurately.

Sarasota comes in 55 lb bags. The number of bags depends on the area and installed thickness, which your specification sets. Approved trade customers can get an estimate from the material calculator, then have the materials team confirm quantities. Order the whole job at once for the closest color match.

For any layer that stays exposed to sun, use UV-stable aliphatic binder so the color does not yellow. Aromatic binder suits base layers and covered work. Ask the materials team to confirm the binder and request the current data sheets. See the resin binder guide.

Yes. Request a physical sample of Sarasota before ordering and look at it on site next to the paving, planting and building. Screens and printed charts can shift color. You can also try it in the rubber visualizer first.
