Materials and craft, specified to the bolt

Most outdoor playground failures start in the bill of materials. Our quotes carry BOM-level specifications — so your engineer can audit them before you order, not after delivery.

Standards we design and assess to

For European projects we engineer to the EN 1176 equipment series and EN 1177 impact-attenuation requirements, and handle GPSR obligations with you. Our wording is deliberate: we design and assess to these standards — we do not claim to hold their test reports.

EN 1176 series

Playground equipment — structural safety, entrapment, entrapment gaps and age-appropriate design, applied part by part.

Read the EN 1176 brief

EN 1177 & surfacing

Fall height vs. critical fall height, and the impact-attenuation duty of your safety surface — EPDM, rubber tiles or sand.

Surfacing requirements

GPSR & CE boundaries

What GPSR requires of an importer, where CE marking applies — and the honest limits of a factory’s role in your compliance file.

Compliance path explained

From your site plan to an installed playground

Seven stages, each with a checkpoint you can verify. Nothing is produced before your drawings are signed off.

01

Site data

CAD or measured sketch, photos, obstacles, age mix, budget.

02

3D concept

Free concept model and layout against your dimensions.

03

Engineering

Production drawings, BOM, surfacing and foundation schedule.

04

Production

Steel, timber, HDPE and rope works in our own workshops.

05

QC pre-assembly

Trial assembly, weld and coating checks, numbered parts.

06

Packing & shipping

Container-optimised packing, photo record, customs papers.

07

Installation guidance

Manuals, videos, remote engineer support; local crew coordination.

Lead time, trade terms and documents, stated up front

Our standard production window is 25–45 days from approved drawings. We would rather explain the number than hide behind it.

We quote EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF and DDP against your port or your door, and prepare the full shipping file — invoice, packing list, origin certificate and destination classification paperwork for the importing country. After drawing approval you receive a weekly production report — steel, coating, pre-assembly, loading — so the wait is visible, not blind.

STEEL & WELDING
≈ 8–14 days — cutting, forming, welding, grinding
SURFACE SYSTEM
≈ 7–12 days — galvanising and dual-coat powder curing
TIMBER / HDPE WORKS
≈ 5–10 days — parallel with steel where design allows
QC PRE-ASSEMBLY
≈ 2–3 days — trial fit, inspection, numbered packing
LOADING & DOCS
≈ 2–3 days — container loading, photo record, customs file
INCOTERMS
EXW · FOB · CFR · CIF · DDP — quoted per project, against your port or door
PAYMENT
Deposit at order; balance tied to pre-shipment inspection and photo record
SHIPPING DOCUMENTS
Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin; destination classification paperwork prepared per importing country

Five times we will tell you not to buy from us

A supplier who never talks himself out of a sale is selling you something. Here is where we are the wrong choice:

  • Your tender requires a held EN 1176 / ASTM / IPEMA test report. We design and assess to these standards but do not hold their third-party certificates. Tell us in your first email — we will say plainly whether we can meet the requirement, and what it would take.
  • Your budget only fits a trading-company price. We are the factory. Our quote carries real material grades, coating specs and QC — if a much cheaper number is the only target, we are not it.
  • You need equipment installed within weeks. Standard production is 25–45 days from approved drawings. We will not promise a date we cannot build to.
  • You cannot provide site dimensions or photos. Real layouts need real site data — trees, services, slopes, boundaries. Guesses produce designs you cannot use.
  • You want a payback-period promise. Anyone quoting you one is guessing. We will give you costs, dimensions and capacity — the rest is your business case.

And ask any supplier — including us — for these five documents before you order: material certificates · coating thickness and salt-spray reports · weld inspection records · HDPE/PE material reports · timber treatment and moisture reports.

Three things we do differently

Not slogans. Each one is something you can check on your first order.

First quote in 24 hours, not days

An engineer reads your site data and returns a first quote — usually with the questions that make it accurate. Not an auto-reply, not a template with your name pasted in.

Photographs of your own order before it ships

Trial assembly, welds, coating and numbered packing — shot on our line, for your order, before the container is sealed. You see what you are paying for.

Specifications you can audit before ordering

BOM-level detail in the quote itself: material grades, coating thickness and salt-spray hours, fastener grade, timber treatment and moisture content. Hand it to your engineer.

Questions buyers ask before the first quotation

Answered the way we would answer them on a call.

What do you need from me to start a design?
A site plan (CAD preferred, or a hand sketch with measured lengths and widths), a few site photos, the position of trees, services and other obstacles, the age group you serve, and your budget range. With that we return a layout concept — usually within 24 hours of a complete brief.
How fast is the first quote?
A first, engineer-reviewed quote within 24 hours of receiving your site data. Final pricing follows once the configuration is confirmed — we would rather quote late and accurately than fast and wrong.
Does the quotation include installation?
We do not send installation crews from China as standard. Your quote includes detailed installation manuals, reference photos and videos, and remote engineer support throughout assembly; we can also coordinate a supervised installation where required. Local contractor installation keeps cost and schedule under your control.
What is the lead time?
25–45 days from approved drawings for standard configurations, depending on scale and surface treatment. After drawings are signed off you receive a weekly production report — steel, coating, pre-assembly, loading.
Which safety standards do you design to?
European projects are engineered and assessed against the EN 1176 equipment series and EN 1177 impact-attenuation requirements; we also plan for ASTM where a project heads to North America. To be precise: we design and assess to these standards — we do not hold their test reports unless a report number is explicitly stated on the relevant page.
Do you sell standard products, or only custom?
Both. Slides, swings, spring riders and fitness units are available as standard items; full custom structures are engineered from your drawings. Standard units can also be recoloured and re-themed.
What are your trade terms and payment schedule?
EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF and DDP are all available. The payment schedule is agreed per project — typically a deposit at order with the balance tied to pre-shipment inspection.
Can we verify the factory before ordering?
Yes — a live video walkthrough of the workshops on request, plus photographs of your own order in production before packing. We encourage it; a factory you cannot verify is just a website.
What is your minimum order quantity?
There is no published minimum for custom projects — a single playground structure is a normal order, and each one is engineered from your drawings. Standard items such as slides, spring riders and fitness units also carry no minimum; pricing simply scales with quantity. Tell us your quantity and site size and the quote will reflect it.
Do you prepare shipping and customs documents?
Yes. Every shipment leaves with a commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, plus destination classification paperwork prepared for the importing country. We quote EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF and DDP — against your port or your door.
Can we visit the factory in person?
Yes. The plant is in Qiaoxia Town, Yongjia, Zhejiang — arrange a visit and we will walk you through the workshops, from steel cutting to trial assembly. Remote buyers can request a live video walkthrough of the production line instead.
What happens if parts arrive damaged or are missing?
Every structure is trial-assembled, inspected and numbered before it is disassembled for shipping, and the numbered packing list is matched to those records. If something arrives damaged or short, send us the packing list and photographs and we will arrange replacement parts.
