Why choose Essentials?
UniPlay and UniMini Essentials are classic examples of circular design principles. Circular design, also known as the circular economy, is a sustainable approach that aims to minimize waste and promote the longevity and reusability of products.
In the context of these play systems, this design philosophy offers several compelling benefits:
• Low cost
• Sustainable
• Playful
• Durable
Low cost
The UniPlay and UniMini units are designed for affordability, featuring carefully chosen components to minimize production costs. These units also have a lower fall height, reducing surfacing expenses upon installation. Despite the focus on cost-efficiency, the quality of UniMini and UniPlay components remains uncompromised.
