History

Back in 1994, Karoleen Alexander, founder of USSA was appointed Vice-President of the product development division of an international, publicly traded tire recycling company to investigate and develop product markets and other uses for crumb rubber worldwide. After years in product and market development, working with government agencies as well as commercial clients, Karoleen lead the way in commercial product manufacturing of such products as mats, playground tiles, fitness flooring and encouraging the use of recycled materials and water conservation in new projects. The in-fill for synthetic sports fields, playgrounds and rubberized asphalt roads was just beginning in the US. She was instrumental working within the State Capital and state agencies to create an environmental impact using recycled plastic structural lumber from milk jugs in playground equipment and site amenities and recycled tires for the development of safety surfacing systems. Recycling grant programs and other incentives soon became available for public and private facilities throughout California as a result. With her growing experience she focused her efforts on improving safety, maintenance and reducing potential liabilities, as well as, addressing growing environmental concerns of a drought throughout the Western US with the introduction of synthetic lawns for sports fields and landscaping.
