Our Mission ENVISION
Playmore Design Corp. strives to create and innovate active learning environments that engage our children and benefit our ecosystem.
Our Plan of Action DESIGN
Children are often told how important it is to take care of their health and the health of our planet. We bring this lesson full circle by creating fun and flexible play modules out of recycled products such as plastic milk jugs and other recyclable plastics. Children see first-hand how the items they recycle can have another purpose, serving a useful and exciting function in their lives.
BUILD Our Structure
Playmore Design Corp. builds both stock playground items featured in this catalog as well as custom play environments tailored to individual customer design, site, and budget specifications. The foundation of each structure is our 100% recycled plastic lumber. Our material is not just the best choice for the environment, it also happens to be the best material available to build playgrounds. We incorporate our other top quality materials to create a premium playground product. Our staff of NRPA Certified Playground Safety Inspectors designs, manufactures, and installs our playground equipment. They follow Consumer Products Safety Commission and ASTM International safety guidelines and IPEMA standards to keep our children safe and our playgrounds sound.
PLAY Our Motto: Playing is Learning
Our name is PLAYMORE. Our job is play. We love our job. We know that something unexpected happens when children are at play: they learn. Active play fosters gross motor development. Artistic play builds imagination and fine motor skills. Dramatic play develops social skills. We incorporate academic themes in most of our equipment to create playgrounds that serve as outdoor classrooms. Our name is DESIGN. At Playmore Design Corp. we design play tools that positively assist in the learning process. Our catalog is divided into sections focused on various learning concepts fostered by design.

WHO WE ARE
PLAY GREEN From wasteland to playland. Playmore Design Corp. is a pioneer in designing and manufacturing recycled plastic playgrounds. We’ve been at it since 1995 – well before “green” became a movement. Each play structure incorporates thousands of milk jugs or equivalent recycled materials. Recycled plastic playgrounds are the best option for many reasons: Better
for the Environment • Using recycled plastic instead of wood saves our forests. • It endures longer than wood or metal systems resulting in less landfill. • Steel playground equipment requires coal burning for smelting. • Plastic used for playgrounds stays out of landfills. • Harsh chemicals used in wood or metal systems may leach hazardous materials into the soil.
Better
for Children • Less exposure to harsh chemicals or rust. • Less chance of splinters from wood or cuts from exposed metal. • Provides a tangible example of recycling.
Better
Product • Longest lasting material; it will not rot, corrode, rust, fade, splinter, crack, or split like wood, steel, or hollow plastic structures. • Lowest maintenance material; our solid, color-core plastic never needs painting sealing or sanding. • Will not stain under normal conditions, making cleanup easy. • Dries quickly for faster use after inclement weather.
Best of all, recycled playgrounds foster awareness of environmental issues for the children that use them. In the best application, our play equipment serves as an example of how recycling can be fun!

Playmore designed this structure for Alisha and Curtis King and their Step By Step Home Daycare in Charlotte, NC. The Kings were the recipients of an Extreme Makeover Home Edition house, aired on Sunday, October 17th, 2008 on ABC. This was a special project for us because we knew how hard the King family worked to provide daycare services for families with little to nothing in return. In a whirlwind week of demolition and rebirth, we were honored with the responsibility to provide and install an integral part of a wonderful project.
Extreme Playmore provides diverse play elements for a variety of ages that fit in a small, residential setting. It features a straight slide, clover climber, tri-rung horizontal ladder, concentration panel, steering wheel wall, block wall and a multi-crawl tube. We chose a color palette that blends with the home design, but also provides the pop the Kings and the show’s designers wanted. Our solid recycled plastic structure was perfect for the show’s green theme and will provide a long lasting, low maintenance playground for their daycare needs. Have a playground ready for an extreme makeover? If so, Extreme Playmore is the perfect fit. Child Capacity: 19 Dimensions: 19’L x 12’W x 9’H Safe Play Zone: 31’ x 24’

Playmore builds custom sandbox covers for all of our sandboxes. In many states and municipalities, covers are required to protect children from illness spread by cat waste.

For larger sandboxes, we use marine grade boat cover fabric with sand channels sewn into the edges to provide the weight needed to secure them in bad weather.
