Want to let your child play safely? Choose the BERG PlayBase!

At BERG, safety is always our top priority. Whether you're swinging, climbing, or simply playing, our products are designed to provide endless and carefree fun outdoors. The BERG PlayBase is no exception. But how do we ensure the PlayBase is so safe, and how is it tested? We’re happy to tell you more in this blog.

The foundation: the frame

The steel frame of the PlayBase is the heart of its design. During development, we subjected the frame to extreme testing to ensure it can handle anything. Did you know that we hang as much as 1,250 kg from the frame during our tests? That’s the weight of about 20 children playing at the same time! The frame remains rock-solid – ready to provide years of fun for the whole family.

Despite this high test weight, it’s crucial to stick to the maximum user weights for your PlayBase frame and accessories to ensure safe use and to maximize the product’s lifespan.

Swing testing: durability and safety in one!

For many children (and let’s be honest, adults too!), a swing is the highlight of any play area. That’s why we test the PlayBase swing suspension down to the smallest detail. How exactly do we do this?

  • 100,000 cycles: The swing suspension is exposed to over 100,000 cycles to see how it holds up during long-term use. This gives us rapid insights into the wear and safety of our product, even under intensive use.
  • Always safe, for everyone: To understand the limits of our products in terms of wear and safety, we also test how much weight the swings can handle before breaking. This ensures the PlayBase far exceeds the highest safety standards.

Why is this important?

At BERG, we believe that outdoor play should not only be fun but also worry-free. That’s why we test every detail so you don’t have to worry about safety. Whether you choose a swing, climbing wall, or basketball hoop, you can trust in the strength and safety of the BERG PlayBase.
