The quirky shapes, toothy top and triangle platform invite the curious 6-12 year olds to investigate the Spica. The rotation point of the Spica is at the centre and it takes exploration and problem solving to master how to spin. The curved pole can be held on to at any position and the child will figure out that leaning in to the pole will increase the spinning speed and leaning out will decrease the speed. Mastering the rotation element stimulates the cognitive skills of the child, in particular the logical thinking. The agility, balance and coordination skills are challenged as the Spica invites different body positions when spinning. The triangular shape of the seat allows room for up to three children, stimulating the social skills of cooperation and turn-taking.

Quality that lasts
The Spica bearings are installed in a one-piece design bearing house with integrated drain holes for water passage. The two large steel bearings are fully closed and lifetime lubricated.
The unique GALAXY super triangle deck plate has an inner core of galvanised steel and soft outer layer of PUR rubber. The rounded edges has a non-skid pattern for safe play.
The coloured top is made of injection moulded high quality nylon (PA6) which is UV stabilised to ensure long life time. The two component design is assembled with steel pins around the steel pipe.
The steel surfaces are hot dip galvanised inside and outside with lead free zinc. 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 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).
