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 onto 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 the 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 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 1 800 mm in all directions from the perimeter of stationary equipment such as climbing frames and slides. 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 of 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, each material is only effective when properly maintained. Materials should be checked periodically and replenished to maintain correct depth as determined necessary for the equipment in question. The choice of a material depends on thetype and height of the playground equipment, the availability of the material in a particular area, and its cost.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONSPARTS LIST

WARNING: Children MUST not use the equipment until properly installed. Anchors supplied must be fitted. The anchors should be inserted into the ground properly (not less than 17.5cm), as shown. This is to prevent the toy from tipping, overturning, or lifting the support members during anticipated use. All anchoring devices MUST be placed below the level of the playing surface to prevent tripping or injury resulting from a fall. If there is sandy soil please ensure anchors are concreted into the ground.

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 all main parts/fixings are tightly secured, well-oiled, and intact to avoid failure, injury, or hazards.

GENERAL ADVICE

It is of particular importance that this is followed at the beginning of each season as well as regular intervals during the usage season.

  1. Check the accessories monthly as well as the play equipment’s structure in order to prevent falling risks.
  2.  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.
  3.  Check all coverings and bolts for sharp edges and replace them when required.
  4.  Lubricate all moving metallic parts.
  5.  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.
  6.  Where applicable: check-swing seats, chains, ropes, and other means of attachment for evidence of deterioration.
  7.  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.

CLEANING

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