The elegantly curved Butterfly makes a statement for climbing. With its twisted climbers, the Butterfly invites climbing attempts again and again. Thanks to the transparency of the Butterfly nets, the children can see each other and communicate across the wings. They have lots to talk about and try out: the twisted nets require clever climbing and balancing techniques, which stimulate the child’s cross-coordination and proprioception, both important for precise movements and ultimately for moving confidently through the world. The visible height adds thrills. There are fast and slow ways across and up into the Butterfly: quick access to the top frame on the curved climbers, and rapid glide to the ground on the banister bars. At ground level, balance disks suspended on ropes add swaying balancing movements, standing or seated. Development of balance is crucial for body control and concentration.

Key Features
Fully colored EPDM rubber discs with smooth surface. The moulded EPDM surrounds a hot dip galvanized steel core that ensures both the stability of the discs and durable fixation to the rope.
The stainless steel activities are made of high quality stainless steel. The steel is glass blasted after manufacturing to ensure a smooth gliding surface.
<p>Colored steel components have a base of hot dip galvanization and a powder coated top finish. This provides an ultimate corrosion resistance in all climates around the world. Other steel surfaces are hot dip galvanized inside and outside with lead free zinc.</p>
Corocord ropes with 19mm diameter or more are special 'Hercules' - type 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.
Corocord 'S' clamps are used as universal connections in Corocord products. 8mm stainless steel rods with rounded edges are pressed around the ropes with a special hydraulic press, making them the ideal connector: safe, durable and vandalism-proof, all while allowing the typical movement of rope play structures.
The rope is fixed to the large steel pipe by a unique KOMPAN designed tightening solution. It consists of inner and outer nylon (PA6) bushings that guides the rope to an outside threaded aluminum part that tighten the rope.

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).
