Manufacturing

The Play Factory! The strength and quality of niche British manufacturing are qualities that we have been perfecting for over 150 years.

Within our purpose built facility in West Yorkshire our team of highly skilled designers, engineers and fabricators transform raw materials into finished goods used within play area projects throughout the UK and further afield. Our pride is no secret and the door is always open to visitors to view first-hand the processes involved with the manufacturing of our products.

As well as holding an annual Home Show, where guided tours of the facility are interspersed with play related seminars, we offer an open invite to all to drop by and see us.

With a local British manufacturer, comes real benefits.

  • Lead times are shorter and with our own flexible team on hand we are ideally placed to satisfy sudden surges in demand.
  • A more sustainable and environmentally acceptable route to market with product manufactured close to the location of intended use generating fewer carbon emissions.
  • Spares requests can be handled swiftly and are dispatched within days, from stock and at local UK delivery rates.

Where it all starts… our team of highly skilled fabricators transform raw materials into the formed metal components that are used throughout all our play equipment.

Our own inhouse, experienced welding team use assembly jigs to transform the individual metal components into a fully welded handmade assembly.

Having a highly durable finish on all our products ensures that our play equipment is going to be durable for any location.

Galvanising, anodising and powder coating provides the environmental protection covered by our extensive warranties as well as bringing some colour to the equipment.

Continual investment in new machinery ensures that we are always at the forefront of technology. Our routers transform sheet HPL (High Pressure Laminate Panels) into colourful and playful panelling used throughout our product ranges.

Impact resistant, graffiti-friendly and UV stable HPL is the perfect material to withstand the rigours of any play area.

Using hard wearing polypropylene steel core ropes ensures that our scramble and climbing ropes are vandal resistant and highly durable. They are assembled by hand specifically for each piece of equipment.

The end of the manufacturing process and where the metalwork, panelling, ropes and numerous fixings all come together.

Our Assembly Team have gained years of experience assembling the wide array of products available within this catalogue and are proud to be part of Made In Britain.

As a UK manufacturer our responsibility to quality and the environment is embedded into all aspects of the business. All our manufactured play equipment has been independently tested and certified as proof of compliance to the European Playground Safety Standard EN 1176.

The quality of all our locally sourced materials is continually monitored through our ISO 9001 certified Quality Assurance Procedures.
