Your partner from concept to completion
We’re more than a supplier - we’re your full-service partner. From the first idea to the final installation (and long after), we’re with you every step of the way.
if you're planning a playground or outdoor fitness site you might recognise these questions:
What equipment should I choose?
What's the best layout?
How do I make sure it's inclusive, safe, and future proof?
That's where we come in.
We help you outline goals, project scope, and site considerations to meet community needs, regulatory requirements, and budget expectations - setting your project up for success.
Our experts are ready to meet with you for a free consultation to review your plans and ideas. From here, we will provide you with sketches, renders, and a proposal with our recommendations, timeline and estimated cost.
A KOMPAN site installation process includes all the stops: project supervision, safety surfacing, landscaping, and core installation.
How can we know the equipment is safe? By working with professionals who have the knowledge and experience to correctly install all items and equipment. Our KOMPAN technicians work in accordance with all local safety standards and regulations, as well as our stringent KOMPAN guidelines and installation manuals.
As the owner, you are responsible for maintaining your playground or outdoor fitness site and its surroundings to ensure all equipment remains safe. A regular maintenance routine is therefore essential when your sites have been installed.
A proper maintenance routine involves everything from regular cleaning and upkeep of the grounds to scheduled inspections to check for hazards, ensure the equipment is in working condition, and make any necessary updates, repairs, or replacements.
At KOMPAN, we're happy to help with the inspection and maintenance of your site. And if anything needs to be replaced, we can quickly order the replacement parts and install them for you.
Grants are financial aid from various organisations that allocate funds for community projects. Grants are a great way to realise a playground project or an outdoor fitness site because not only will a grant boost the overall budget and help your project immensely, but the money allocated is free and must not be repaid. Grants can come from different pools, such as:
Corporate or business grants
National grants
Foundation grants
Individual grants
Applying for funding and grants can seem like a steep hill to climb, since many stakeholders are involved. Our teams of experts are here to help you in the application process. We are happy to help you right from the start of your funding journey.

Playgrounds - Let's Play
At the heart of everything we do are three powerful words: WOW. STAY. DEVELOP. They guide how we design playgrounds that inspires joy, invites people to stay, and supports growth - for all ages and abilities.
WOW - inspiring play and movement: The WOW factor is the visual impact our playground has on children: they can’t wait to play there. Our equipment is designed to spark the imagination by capturing children’s curiosity and creativity.
STAY - because great design makes people linger: We create playgrounds that motivate users to stay longer, play harder, and come back again. Our play areas are packed with fun and challenging features that grow with children.
DEVELOP - supports growth at any age: Our equipment is tested with children to ensure it supports their physical, cognitive, creative, and social-emotional development - helping children develop essential life skills through play.

Our outdoor fitness line gets adults moving. Each solution is evidence-based, user-tested, and inclusive, so everyone can join in.
