Climbing Structures for Schools with lower carbon emission
Schoolyard news
Climbing structures made of 76% recycled waste
The new climbing structures are not only greener, but they also serve as an educational aspect for pupils. The climbing structures are made from textile and post-consumer waste sources, which lower the carbon emission footprint compared to the standard versions. Calculations are available on all products, see example here.
Lower carbon - how?
Posts made of textile waste
The posts on the climbing structures are made of recycled textile waste. A new ground-breaking innovation in greener playgrounds - we call it TexMade™. Texmade™ posts have a 49% lower carbon footprint compared to traditional steel posts.
Panels made of ocean waste
The panels on the climbing structures are made of 95% post-consumer ocean recycled waste and have a lower carbon emission footprint than traditional panels.
"... for older children, and even adults, new research has shown that climbing supports the working memory [...] In a child’s universe, it is the ability to remember what the teacher just told you"
From the "Climbing Clever" white paper by Jeanette Fich Jespersen & Suzanne Flannery Quinn - KOMPAN Play Institute
Simple, yet so important
Why add balancing & climbing equipment to your schoolyard?
By climbing, children have fun while important functions are trained, like motor skills that also enhance their reading skills and their memory.
Why is that? Climbing and balancing greatly impact skills like balance, cross-coordination, and cognitive development. All this, just by having fun.
