You’ll find design excellence on the inside and

outside of our components. We start with high-quality

materials and transform them into playgrounds

that meet or exceed the highest standards.

How do we measure excellence? One method –

listening to and watching kids on our playgrounds

– it isn’t scientific, but it plays a big part in

figuring out what kids like and how to keep

them safe. We put a lot of time into pushing

our innovations further, like our clatter bridge

with patented pinch free connections. Laughs,

giggles, and shouts of pure joy make all

of the hard work worthwhile.

Kids are natural-born climbers.

It’s no wonder they find the

crevices and bumpy handholds of our new

terra-forms™ irresistible. Its organic shape and

formidable scale spark imagination and

provide the kind of physical challenge

that develop strength,

coordination, and confidence.

Used solo or in a group,

terra-forms are a great way

to add a little Paleolithic fun

to any playground.

Kids always

need new

challenges. So we created Matrix™ –

our new brand of multi-dimensional

“web” climbers. Once kids enter

the Matrix, it’s a whole new world.

Kids can climb, sway, jiggle, and

bounce with every motion. Choose

from our many Matrix variations, and

add a whole new dimension of

playground fun!
