The Butterfly is a transparent, social climbing magnet for children. The elegantly curved wings with their twisted climbs invite climbing try-outs again and again. Thanks to the transparency of the Butterfly nets, the children can see each other and communicate across the Butterfly, and from ground level to top. This adds social interaction and a possibility for cooperation and sharing. The twisted blue membranes on top add a fun, Glide-feel destination for meeting. Climbing the Butterfly trains cross-coordination and balancing techniques, which stimulate the child’s ability to control movements, and ultimately to move confidently through the world. The visible heights add thrill. There are faster and slower ways across and up into the Butterfly: Curved Climbers add fast access to the top frame. On ground level two blue Loops invite fun, swaying meetings, two, four or more together.

Quality that lasts
Hangout pod designed with a welded frame of two steel rings which are hot dip galvanized and powder coated. The membrane consist of friction-proof rubberized material of conveyor belt quality with excellent UV resistance.
Corocord membranes consist of friction-proof rubberized material of conveyor belt quality with excellent UV resistance. Tested and compliant with REACH requirements for PAH. Embedded is a four-layered armouring made of woven polyester. The armouring and the two surface layers result in a total thickness of 7.5 mm.
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.
Corocord ropes with 19mm diameter or more are special 'Hercules' - type with galvanised six-stranded steel wires. Each strand is tightly wrapped with PES yarn, which is melted onto each indivudual 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 enable 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).
