ESSENTIALS TIMBER MAKES FOR NATURAL PLAY
13 Oct 2016
Forpark introduces their newest range of play equipment – Essentials Timber. This hybrid collection of timber and metal structures is designed with the harsh Australian climate in mind.
We are lucky to live in such a beautiful country where there are still so many natural spaces accessible to everyone. Even as urban sprawl expands our cities, new developments are looking to incorporate natural play spaces to offset the concrete of inner city developments.
There is simply no substitute for the look and feel of real natural materials. However, there is no denying that when left to ‘weather the elements’ of the harsh Australian environment, many natural materials will degrade faster than manmade metals. This reality is one that becomes a major consideration for anyone looking for commercial playground equipment.
Looking to combat this issue and provide the ‘best of both worlds’ for their clients, Forpark has been developing the ultimate hybrid play equipment with gorgeous natural timber elements balanced with the structural integrity of aluminium and steel frames.
ESSENTIALS TIMBER
Forpark is pleased to introduce Essentials Timbers, their newest range of play equipment. Made from Meranti of the Shorea species, a light hardwood with a beautiful natural lustre, the Essentials Timber range offers a durable and attractive aesthetic.
Meranti timber has interlocking grains that give it a textured look that weathers well, with a surface that gets smoother as it ages. Meranti is known for its durability and resistant to insect attacks, making it the perfect choice for creating robust and attractive structures that will stand the test of time.
The Essentials Timber play range from Forpark has already proven to be immensely popular with developers who are looking for lasting playspaces with a natural touch.

+All Forpark timber is responsibly sourced through a FSC certified supplier.
