Consumer Information Sheet for Playground Surfacing Materials
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that about 100 000
playground equipment-related injuries resulting from falls to the ground
surface are treated annually in US hospital emergency rooms. Injuries
involving this hazard pattern tend to be among the most serious of all
playground injuries, and have the potential to be fatal, particularly when the
injury is to the head. The surface under and around playground equipment can
be a major factor in determining the injury-causing potential of a fall. It is
self-evident that a fall on to a shock-absorbing surface is less likely to
cause a serious injury than a fall onto a hard surface. Playground equipment
should never be placed on hard surfaces, such as concrete or asphalt, and
while grass may appear to be acceptable, it may quickly turn to hard-packed
earth in areas of high traffic. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, tine sand or
the gravel are considered to be acceptable shock absorbing surfaces when
installed and maintained at a sufficient depth under and around playground
equipment.
Table B.1 : lists the maximum height from which a child would not be
expected to sustain a life-threatening head injury in a fall on to four
different loose-fill surfacing materials if they are Installed and maintained
at depths of 150 mm, 225 mm and 300 mm.
TABLE B.1: Fall height in millimeters from which a life-threatening head
injury would not be expected.
TYPE OF MATERIAL
DEPTH OF SURFACING MATERIAL:
| 150mm| 225mm| 300mm
---|---|---|---
Double Shredded Bark Mulch| 1800| 3000| 3300
Wood Chips| 1800| 2100| 3600
Fine Sand| 1500| 1500| 2700
Fine Gravel| 1800| 2100| 3000
However, it should be recognized that all injuries due to falls cannot be
prevented, no matter what surfacing material is used.
It is recommended that a shock absorbing material extend a minimum of 1800mm
in all directions from the perimeter of stationary equipment such as climbing
frames and lids. However, because children may deliberately jump from a
moving swing, the shock absorbing material should extend in the front and rear
of a swing a minimum distance f twice the height of the pivot point measured
from a point directly beneath the pivot on the supporting structure.
This information is intended to assist in comparing the relative shock-
absorbing properties of various materials. No particular material is
recommended over another. however, ache material is only effective when
properly maintained. Materials should be checked periodically and replenished
to maintain correct depth as determined necessary or the equipment in
question. The choice of a material depends on the type and height of the
playground equipment, the availability of the material in a particular area,
and tsp. cost.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Please keep for future reference.
We recommend regular maintenance to be conducted at the beginning of each
season as well as at regular intervals during the usage session for your play
equipment to ensure ll main parts/fixings are tightly secured, well-oiled and
intact to avoid failure, injury or hazards.
GENERAL ADVICES
It is of particular importance that this is followed at the beginning of each
season as well as at regular intervals during the usage season.
-
Check the accessories monthly as well as the play equipment’s structure to prevent falling risks.
-
Check and retighten screws, bolts, and all other hardware elements as necessary.
a. Do not over tighten to avoid damaging the thread or cracking the surrounding wood. -
Check all coverings and bolts for sharp edges and replace when required.
-
Lubricate all moving metallic parts.
-
When signs of oxidation and / or rust appear on various metallic parts of your equipment, sand rusted areas and tubular members and repaint using a non-lead-based paint when required.
-
Where applicable: check swing seats, chains, ropes, and other means of attachment for evidence of deterioration.
-
Replace when required in accordance with the owner’s manual.
If your play structure is disassembled, be sure to clearly mark any attached metal plates to prevent accidents. Check all bolt covers and sharp edges and replace them if necessary. For longer accessory life, we suggest storing them during the winter.
WOOD ADVICE
Our products are manufactured from premium timber. Great care is taking in selecting, machining, and treating the timber before it is sold to you.
- Inspect wood parts monthly. The grain of the wood sometimes will lift in dry periods causing splinters to appear. Light sanding may be necessary to maintain a safe environment. Treating your Product with protection (sealant) after sanding will help prevent severe checking/splitting and other weather damage.
- We have applied a waterborne translucent stain to your unit. This is done for colour only. Once or twice a year, depending on your climate conditions, you must apply some type of protection (sealant) to the wood of your unit. Prior to the application of sealant, lightly sand any “rough” spots on your set. Please note this is a requirement of your warranty.
Bear in mind that timber is a natural product and may experience changes throughout the course of its life. It may:
- Develop openings/checks (gaps, slits, apertures, cracks) along the line of the grain.
- Fade as the timber reacts with sunlight.
All woods are hygroscopic, that is, it will absorb or discharge moisture to attain equilibrium with the surrounding atmosphere. Timber openings/checks occur due to the moisture content between internal and outer surfaces of the timber. No two pieces of wood are exactly alike. Each piece has its own characteristics and personality and reacts differently to climate changes. When any wood products are exposed to the elements, it develops ‘wood checks’. A check is the radial separation of the wood fibres running with the grain of the wood. These are caused by the varying temperature and moisture conditions. A check does not affect the strength or durability of the wood or structural integrity of the play set.
WHEN SHOULD WOOD CRACKS BE A CONCERN?
Most of the wood splits will never become large enough to affect the
reliability and strength of our products, however, there can be rare cases
where splits can occur. This appends when a crack develops past the halfway
point from the timber, splitting it into two separate pieces. Feel free to
contact us with detailed pictures of your product so we can assess and ensure
that your playground remains safe.

Do not use any abrasive cleansers for the cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to
eliminate dirt and dust.
