The Balance Beam is a great playground classic, that attracts children again and again. It can function as playground glue, connecting activities, and friends. It can also function as a point for a break, providing seating for children sharing, or parents or carers in need of a point from which to observe the children play. When children balance across the Balance Beam, they train their equilibrium immensely. The sense of balance is a fundamental motor skill, that is basic for the development of all other skills. The sense of balance for instance makes it possible for children to sit still and concentrate. So the fun of physical play supports child development. The spaciousness allows for ample social interaction and cooperative play.
Quality that lasts
Beams are made of pine wood from sustainable European sources. The wood is pressure impregnated Class 3 with Tanalith E preservative.
The steel surfaces are hot-dip galvanised inside and outside with lead free zinc and with powder coated top-finish. The galvanisation has excellent corrosion resistance in outside environments and requires low maintenance.

The overall framework applied for these factors is the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), which quantifies "environmental information on the life cycle of a product and enables comparisons between products fulfilling the same function" (ISO, 2006). This follows the structure and applies a Life-Cycle Assessment approach to the entire Product stage, from raw material through manufacturing (A1-A3).
