QUALITY YOU CAN RELY ON: PREMIUM MATERIAL SELECTION FOR EXTENDED ASSET LIFE

One of the key factors that sets WillPlay apart is its careful consideration of materials and the desire to offer extended product life and value for money over the entire lifecycle of a project. This means WillPlay can offer a lifetime structural warranty on its play and fitness systems, and offer designed systems that are 100 percent recyclable at end of life.

Premium material selection starts at the heart of every play and fitness system, with all posts, rails and structural items being manufactured from marine-grade aluminium or stainless steel. The units are further protected with a premium polyester powdercoat system, ensuring that your investment will stand the test of time.

When shortcuts are taken on material selection, product life is reduced and maintenance costs increase. Rusting components not only look horrible but can become an issue very quickly, compromising structural posts and footings and reducing asset life. WillPlay’s custom-designed aluminium extrusions ensure that your investment will last beyond its expected asset life and continue to be a drawcard well into the future.image2

In addition to aluminium and stainless steel, WillPlay have incorporated recycled plastics into its designs. Reducing the strain on landfills and conserving valuable natural resources using recycled plastic elements offers numerous advantages over traditional wood and steel products. Being highly resistant to moisture, insect infestations and rotting, these elements reduce the need for frequent maintenance and replacement. Moreover, it provides a safe play environment for children, creating a sustainable legacy for generations to come.

A major cost hit to any asset budget is timber play equipment, which requires expensive ongoing maintenance and can be susceptible to hidden dangers due to footings rotting in the ground. WillPlay understands the importance of aesthetics and the desire for natural looking elements in playground design and has designed a low-maintenance alternative.

The company’s recently updated Treehouse range utilises timber-look aluminium and composite wood options. Timber-look aluminium provides the warm, inviting appearance of wood while retaining the durability and low-maintenance benefits of Australian-made marine-grade aluminium. Unlike traditional wood, timber-look aluminium is weather-resistant and does not splinter or decay over time, ensuring playground equipment remains sturdy, safe and long-lasting, even in the harshest coastal conditions.

These systems have captured the essence of timber without compromising on safety or environmental responsibility. Similarly, composite wood, made from recycled wood fibres and recycled plastics, offers the beauty of wood while being highly resistant to decay, insects and moisture. These alternative materials provide playground equipment that blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings, creating an aesthetically pleasing and sustainable play experience.

WillPlay firmly believe that playgrounds should be designed with the end of its useful life in mind. That’s why WillPlay’s equipment is designed to be easily recycled at end of life. The modular nature of the WillPlay range allows for efficient separation of materials, such as aluminium, stainless steel, recycled plastics, timber-look aluminium and composite wood. By prioritising recyclability, WillPlay is contributing to the principles of a circular economy, minimising waste generation and maximising resource efficiency. This not only creates cost-effective maintenance and upgrade opportunities, it also sets an example for children and communities, inspiring environmental awareness and responsibility.

Willplay understand that sustainability is not just a buzzword, it is a responsibility embraced wholeheartedly. Its focus on creating sustainable playgrounds extends beyond compliance with regulations and into seeking innovative ways to reduce its environmental impact and set new standards for the industry. Choosing Willplay means you can be confident in providing children with playground equipment that is not only safe, durable and visually appealing, it also contributes to a greener future and a stronger Australian economy.image3
