If you can afford a waxed surface it won't blow .
I have large rubber pieces and silica sand a little escapes but very little has blown .

It can get very windy here, we have rubber crumb on sand and it has never blown about in the 3 years it's been down.
I have 4 kickboards instead of the usual 2 though, as I have a leaning fence design, which might help.
ETA its 2" of rubber crumb over 5" of sand.

Silica sand Is used in schools .
Get a copy of H and H always lots a ads in there , ring some companies and do some research .
Waxed surfaces are basically coated in a Vaseline type stuff they dont need watering and don't blow but are firm .
