Designed for Safety and Durability

ProShield Finish™

Specifically designed to withstand the demands of extreme heat, harsh climates, moisture, and UV exposure, ProShield finish combines a specially formulated primer with a high-quality, architectural-grade, Super-Durable, TGIC polyester powder coat. 100% lead free.

Polyethylene

The heavy-duty rotationally molded polyethylene material ensures strength and durability while resisting cracking, fading, and peeling.

Recycling Plastic Lumber

Looks like wood but longer lasting and easier to clean. Created from 100% recycled high-density UV-stabilized polyethylene material to prevent warping in direct sun.

Textured Rubber Belting

Textured 3-ply black rubber belting with polyester fabric layers provides a grippy texture for climbing or relaxing. Braided belt is patent pending.

Handgrips

Specially designed handgrips mimic the performance and feel of those on professional climbing walls. Attached by two bolts, they stay tightly in place, reducing maintenance and providing gap-free safety for clothing and skin. With a superior grip that everyone can count on, kids feel confident whether they are climbing up, down or sideways.

Hot Dip Galvanized (HDG) Steel

The Hot Dip Galvanized distinctive zinc patina eventually take on a matte gray appearance, blending in well with the styles of many different play environments – urban, sculptural, modern, industrial, and more. Also, if you happen to live in a coastal area, this durable finish provides an extra level of protection against the harsh elements.
