Robinia Pirate Ships

Ahoy, all daredevils and pirates, beware!

KOMPAN offers a range of FSC certified wooden pirate ship playsets for playgrounds. Crafted from durable Robinia wood, our pirate ship playground equipment provides endless hours of thrilling and imaginative adventures, keeping children engaged and exploring. The element of danger adds an extra layer of excitement to their play, especially on our pirate ship climbing frames, where children can imagine reenact thrilling ocean adventures.

Just like two pirate captains, no two wooden pirate ship play structures are the same. Each has its own unique character and features, thanks to the natural authenticity of Robinia wood. These pirate ship climbing frames are packed with opportunities to hide, climb, and role-play, helping young buccaneers develop character, communication skills, and physical abilities. These voyages of self-discovery offer more than just playtime—they're a journey of growth and exploration.

Designed for fun, safety, and long-lasting outdoor play, our wooden pirate ship is the perfect centrepiece for any play area.

Customisable Wooden Pirate Ship Climbing Frames

Our pirate ship play sets come in six standard designs, but each pirate ship structure offers the option to be customised with unique features, such as distinctive Robinia wood grain patterns, building on the original wooden pirate ship framework. These pirate ship climbing frames are available in three different sizes, all of which are expansive and dominate any playground. The placement of slides, ropes, and the pirate ship itself contribute to the allure of a swashbuckling adventure that is simply irresistible.

The Robinia tree is a remarkable natural wonder. It thrives in poor soil, promotes nitrogen production in the soil, produces Acadia honey, and even helps reduce CO2 levels through its leaves. It adapts well in urban areas and is often planted along streets and boulevards. Robinia timber is a highly durable material for play features. Moreover, each unique piece of Robinia wood dictates how it can be used, adding a degree of individuality to each commercial pirate ship playground.

Frequently Asked Questions About Robinia Pirate Ships

Are pirate ship playgrounds just for boys?

No. Girls can enjoy the adventure just as much as boys. In fact, there were many female pirates, such as Anne Bonny, Mary Read, and Rachel Wall, who are often overlooked. Female pirates also existed in Sweden, China, and France. Playing these characters can help with character development and allow for breaking down of conceptual barriers in the imaginative world. Who wouldn't want to pretend to be Keira Knightley or Johnny Depp?

Are the wooden ships painted?

Yes and no. The wood can be treated or untreated, the former giving it initially a darker hue, the latter aging gracefully with time. The wood can also be painted, with features in blue and red and sides in black.

What type of rope is used in pirate ship playgrounds?

 KOMPAN uses a special ‘Hercules’-type of rope with galvanized six-stranded steel wires. Each strand is tightly wrapped with PES yarn, which is melted onto each individual strand. The ropes are highly wear-and vandalism-resistant and can be replaced at site if needed.
