INSPIRATIONAL PLAYGROUND CONCEPT

The Stratus Cloud

'The Stratus Cloud is designed as a second generation of the original Corocord® spacial nets, re-created and re-innovated with a new technology. With three peaks – and almost 9m high – the Stratus Cloud spreads out its climbing landscape, with a space on top for softly bouncing walks and crawls ...'

The Stratus Cloud - LARGE

A transparent climbing landscape

Underneath, the Stratus Cloud holds a wide range of dynamic activities, such as three sets of EPDM drops and several super cool fun items such as liana ropes and stepping pods. Best of all, the inside of the Stratus Cloud is literally a whole playground in itself! It’s bouncy and packed with fun activities such as the fantastic swaying and turning drops made of EDPM similar to the discs and available in all custom colors. The interior space can be entered via the tunnels around each support post or through the three access nets.

Loaded with play activities

Challenging entrance

The rope climb access adds harder and easier climbs up into the cloud, training cross-coordination and concentration.

Hello everybody!

The Talk Tubes engage children who can communicate with others at ground level through the tubes. This adds an element of wonder and stimulates communication and turn-taking.

Soft walks and crawls

The softly bouncing coromesh net spurs cautious walks and crawls on the outside and wild climbs on the inside, adding a social and highly physically demanding play journey which trains both motor skills, thinking skills and muscles.

A playground inside the playground

The central hang-out is a spacious, protected meeting destination and a bouncy platform to socialise and enjoy.

What a view!

The outlook hang-outs are great destinations and a bouncy platform to socialise and enjoy.

Swaying fun

The Sturdy Drops make for an extremely appealing, swaying break. Sitting, hanging or leaning on the drop is a calming movement, which adds to a social understanding and gives a feeling of connectedness to other players as the movements of the climbers in the big cloud above are replicated into the drops.

Is this playground durable?

Yes! All KOMPAN playgrounds are built to withstand decades of weather and usage.

Our engineers carefully calculate the static strength of each playground structure, and our production uses only the highest quality materials. Fifty years of testing through play around the world has given us extensive knowledge on how to achieve extreme durability. This results in minimal downtime and a low total cost of ownership. For generations of children, this means endless hours of play.

Is this playground safe and certifiable?

Yes! All KOMPAN inspirational playground equipment is safe and certifiable - as is every product we have designed for more than 50 years.

At KOMPAN we have, since 1970, developed outdoor play equipment that stimulates and challenges children, with safety as the paramount consideration. Every part of the design, engineering, production and construction process is geared to ingrain safety into the final products that are certifiable by TÜV.

How to install a playground like this?

At KOMPAN we turn ideas into reality - all the way from defining the playground concept until the playground is installed.

Building a playground is not child’s play. It is a major construction. From clearing the area for foundations to finishing off the site, it involves heavy equipment, extensive materials, complex products and expert knowledge. All these factors must be precisely coordinated to avoid delays. Our expert teams have done it many times and are happy to take this load off your shoulders.
