This is my first time dealing with the subject of playgrounds. What is the quickest way to get an offer that meets my requirements?
Which wood is used for outdoor playground equipment
Different types of wood are used for our playground equipment, depending on the installation situation and requirements: pine kdi, larch, robinia, oak, fir, ash. The classic woods are supplemented with panel materials made of glued wood or HPL or HDPE panels. Steel and stainless steel are also processed for individual components.
What do you have to look out for when buying playground equipment?
With us, you will be assisted in the selection and planning by our respective specialist consultants on site: The top priority is the play value for the respective user group. Attention is paid to whether the devices fit the respective terrain, whether the age group fits, or what fall protection is required. Make sure that the devices are certified according to EN 1176. Personal advice and the long-term supply of spare parts are particularly appreciated by our customers.
Outdoor playground equipment made of wood or metal?
Depending on the play function, component, desired aesthetics or installation location, there are different advantages and disadvantages. In natural playgrounds, wood is obviously preferred. A heavily loaded beam over a group swing can be made of metal. Otherwise, the haptic perception is z. B. on climbing equipment, even in cold or wet seasons, to evaluate wood positively.
Yes and no: TÜV certification is not mandatory, but the applicable standard EN 1176 must be complied with. For the customer, the TÜV test has the advantage that the safety of the device is determined by an independent institution. The certificates can be downloaded from the respective playground equipment!
All types of soil used in playgrounds have advantages and disadvantages and offer different design options. A comparison of costs in relation to the useful life is recommended. In the case of loose fall protection materials, the layer thickness must be increased by 100mm in the appropriate places (where there is a lot of movement or great heights of fall) due to the play-away effect. It should also be taken into account that sand and gravel, for example, can be "tolerated" in other areas or, for example, the accessibility with prams or wheelchairs can be important.
