Meeting New ADA Requirements and Improving Inclusive Play HAGS SMP is one of the leading playground manufacturers in the UK. In London we have a designated Area Manager Martin Potts who looks after our customers covering all the London boroughs providing an excellent support as we feel being geographically close to our clients is very important. Over the years we have provided a number of play areas including a fantastic project in the London Borough of Islington where we installed our Arena Duo system which meant we could provide the perfect solutions for this unique site in Islington.
City of Your Town Receives New Playground Grant Bathford Council contracted HAGS to design and create a new play area that gives local children plenty of opportunities to play and socialise. The challenge was set for designers to come up with a well thought strategy to make best use of this existing narrow space where an old playground used to sit. The play area had to be low maintenance, provide play equipment for all abilities and have safety railings to distinguish it from the adjacent sports field. We provided a range of equipment ensuring children would be kept entertained for hours. For the younger users (age 1-4) we provided the Zingo Nau, Zingo See Saw and a Zingo Bubble to integrate bright colours within the park. The Zingo product range promotes social interaction and development, as well as providing a challenging physical exercise. For older children, the NRG Altitude 11B was chosen as a centrepiece and
With our wide range of products we can adapt to any environment. We offer products that are suitable for urban environment as well as equipment suited for the natural surroundings. Our UniMini and UniPlay multiplay units can be constructed just about anywhere by adapting the constructions to the natural surroundings. Our UniMini modular system offers plenty of opportunities to play together, learn through collaboration and play role for the younger children whilst our UniPlay provides the most unique modular system unit. You can build high, long, low, down slopes and over hills! Whatever your requirements are – size or type we can design a bespoke play area to suit your needs and budget. For full details, contact John Doe at (843) 555-1212 or john@hags.com.
instinctively appeals to all children with a sense of adventure, providing challenges to get them moving so they never get bored. In addition, we’ve provided playground essentials such as the Olympic 2 seat swing with 2 cradle seats, a 2.4m Basket Swing and a Rota Roka to complement this play area. To encourage cognitive stimulation, we included the Crazy and Ball maze panels, Talk Tubes, 3 in a Row Panel and a ‘What Time Is It?’ panel.
Our custom designed products are suitable for urban environment as well as equipment suited for the natural surroundings.
