Robinia timber outdoor fitness equipment by KOMPAN
Are you looking to create a wooden outdoor gym that’s suitable for most workout disciplines and attracts users of varying ability levels? KOMPAN’s durable Robinia wooden gym equipment is the ideal solution.
Robina is one of most suitable wood types for wooden outdoor workout equipment, as its natural preservatives and oils make it highly resistant to outdoor elements. Not only will your KOMPAN wooden gym equipment be highly functional and visually appealing, but it will also last for years to come. Because of its durability, our wooden fitness equipment requires minimal maintenance.
Our portfolio includes wooden exercise equipment inspired by two fitness disciplines that have been popular since the ‘70s and ‘80s – namely outdoor callisthenics gym and obstacle course equipment. Throughout the years, the typical outdoor workout equipment for these disciplines has been known for having an urban steel look. But with KOMPAN’s wooden fitness line, we have made those products available in Robinia, making it possible to fit your favorite street workout and obstacle course equipment into a nature-inspired outdoor fitness zone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do outdoor gyms work?
While many outdoor facilities are promoted as gyms, they do not provide weight-based resistance training and instead focus on improving mobility. This main distinction has created a negative image on the idea of outdoor gyms, portraying them as ineffective, at least compared to indoor gyms. However, we at KOMPAN have developed true outdoor fitness equipment which is suitable for both high-volume calisthenics and weight training. Additionally, outdoor gyms provide the benefit of being in nature and enjoying fresh air, in contrast to enclosed - and sometimes crowded - spaces like indoor gyms.
Is wood a good material for outdoor fitness equipment?
As a rule, many durable hardwood types are great for outdoor fitness equipment. However, through research and over 50 years of experience, we have found Robinia wood to be one of the most durable wood materials for most types of outdoor equipment, This is also confirmed by external research. We use Robinia wood throughout our product ranges - such as our natural playground equipment - on thousands of projects around the globe. Other than for the natural look and feel, Robinia wood is also often chosen for being a strong and long-lasting material with a very high level of natural oils. Thus, Robinia wood makes very durable fitness areas which are close to maintenance-free and able to last for many years.
