INSPIRATIONAL PLAYGROUND CONCEPT
The Owl
'The Owl offers 360-degree play for children from the age of 4 and above. From the top platform, the children get to take in the world through the eyes of The Owl, and experience thrill and stomach tickling when sliding down the wide slide together ...'
Play Designer, KOMPAN Design Studio
Developing body, mind and friendships
On The Owl strategically placed climbing grips and nets on the wings and body help challenge children's balance, cross-coordination and muscle strength. The top platform can also be accessed through a maze of platforms inside the stomach of The Owl. A hammock hidden underneath the tail gives the opportunity for a short, swaying break with friends.

Turning themes, ideas and stories into playgrounds
KOMPAN Design Studio
For more than a decade, we have built tailor-made and highly unique playgrounds that WOW children and adults to come and play. Our playgrounds can come in a range of themes and can be localised and thematised to your local area and community, or to fit a specific environment. No matter the theme all our units are packed full of play value. The play structures are made of highly durable and vandalism-resistant materials that make them last for decades to come. Also, they are safe and certifiable like all products we have built over the past 50 years.
Loaded with play activities
Challenging climbing
Dexterity and concentration trained in layers of climbing play, with varied supports, grips, nets and inclined surfaces.
Sliding side-by-side
The wide slide (of H: 178cm) allows for a fun and social sliding experience together - even next to each other.
Connected nets
Interconnected, responsive climbing nets – support cross-coordination and muscle strength, and support social interaction with the inside thanks to their transparency.
Through the eyes of the owl
Eyes – imagine taking in the outside world through the eyes of the owl.
To the top
Inside The Owl is a platform maze – where children need to climb up and through to reach the top.

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.
