Playground Safe Fall

Safe Fall is a fully certified chip that we supply to councils for playgrounds, as well as pre-schools, primary schools, early childhood centres and families that want to keep their children safe if they have play equipment at home. It is designed to create a cushioned landing if anyone falls off playground equipment. Our Safe Fall is used in the famous, much loved, Christchurch Margaret Mahy playground.
