At Active Playground Equipment, we are indeed a playground manufacturer. This means that we control all the playground manufacturing directly at our facility, managing all quality control. This means that in the unlikely event that there is a warranty issue, you are dealing directly with the manufacturer of the playground equipment, not a supplier. Each piece of commercial playground equipment has been designed and manufactured specifically for CSA safety standards. Because each commercial playground equipment example is custom designed for you, each one has a unique appearance and is manufactured to fit your unique surroundings. As each play structure is manufactured one at a time, and since we are the playground equipment manufacturer, we would be glad to offer some customization at no additional charge. If you have a favorite colour theme or climber that you have seen somewhere else, there is a good chance we can custom make it for you. That is the benefit of being the playground equipment manufacturer.
