Loaded with play activities

Stomack-tickling

The tunnel slide is super fun with its perfect curve and inclination for a playful ride.

Cross-coordination

The internal transparent climbing panel is challenging and supports cross-coordination.

Relaxation

After thrilling fun and climbing the towers it is time to relax in one of the play shells below deck.

The challenge of heights

Balancing on the high plank bridge ­develops the vestibular system and cross-coordination.

Slide ride

Sliding trains core muscles when sitting upright going down, and cognitive skills in understanding of space, speed, and distances.

Climbing across ropes

The Tower net gives fast and efficient access on one half and is a challenging climb on the other, both supporting sense of space and muscle strength.

How to install a playground like this?

At KOMPAN we turn ideas into reality - all the way from defining the playground concept until the playground is installed.

Building a playground is not child’s play. It is a major construction. From clearing the area for foundations to finishing off the site, it involves heavy equipment, extensive materials, complex products and expert knowledge. All these factors must be precisely coordinated to avoid delays. Our expert teams have done it many times and are happy to take this load off your shoulders.
