Quality and Craftsmanship

Playworld exists to unite communities through innovative and authentic play, creating equal play opportunities for all. Craftsmanship is our hallmark; it runs deep in our veins. We hold true to our high-quality manufacturing heritage, building every playground with passion and pride to enrich the lives of all through unstructured, outdoor play. We all know that the world gets smaller every day. We’re here to expand the possibilities, lifting us all up through play.

The Building Blocks Of Great Play

What goes into Playworld products? A lot of pride, a healthy dose of imagination, and an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship. Our products are made in the U.S.A., in our central Pennsylvania manufacturing facility, from domestic and foreign content. Only a few pieces of miscellaneous hardware, ropes, and mechanisms are made in modern factories in Germany and China and purchased through U.S. companies. What does that mean to you? It means we have the utmost control over processes, materials, and testing, so we can guarantee quality through and through. After all, our commitment to play value is only as strong as the integrity of our products.

Torture-Testing

Our products provide play around the world, so they need to stand up to the extremes—sun and rain, hot and cold, use and abuse. That’s why we test every one thoroughly and aggressively.

Rust & Fade Resistance

We’ve baked our materials in dry Arizona sun and wet Florida heat to ensure superior resistance to rust and fading. Our materials and finishing are tested in 4,000 hours of salt spray.

Weight Loading

We encourage kids to play together, so our equipment must be strong enough to carry the weight. We test each of our designs to ASTM F1487, CAN/CSA-614 and EN1176 standards.

Impact Testing

When we incorporate new materials into our products, we test them to the breaking point—even if that’s hammer blows at -20°F.

Wildcard Testing

It’s our responsibility to expect the unexpected extremes, so we test with blowtorches, wheelbarrow strikes, and more. We even test our electronics under water.
