Next time you take your kids or pets to the city park, take a closer look at the playground. It has gone green and high-tech! Playground equipment has taken on a whole new design and style. Not only can they now withstand the wear and tear of thousands of children playing day after day on them, but they are also built with green in mind.
“All of the equipment we build and install comes from recycled materials,” says, Dick Olivas, president of Sierra Winds, a commercial play systems, site and sport furnishings company. “These products can withstand the weather and lots of play time. Not only are the structures engineered for green but so are the playground surfacing products.”
“Low maintenance is the key,” says Olivas. Business owners and recreation managers are looking for equipment, surfaces and structures that have a long life and can be recycled and reused. “We recently replaced the playground surfaces on 3 city parks. There were a lot of advantages to the city to replace the surfaces with our green product. The Bonded Wood Fiber mulches by Zeager Bros does not require any maintenance work, prevents serious injuries, won't blow away and is fire safe.” Check out our website for more information on our products www.sierra-winds.com
