The project of setting up an indoor playground generates a wide range of benefits for children. Play is essential for their development and the interpersonal relationships they build, and when it takes place in a safe perimeter, built from scratch alongside specialists in the field, this activity becomes even more enchanting.

Design and arrangement of indoor playgrounds
Waterboyz custom-makes playgrounds for indoor spaces, available in a wide range of themes: Jungle, Safari, Jurassic Park, Aquatic Universe, Enchanted Forest, Unicorn World, Candy, Magic Castle, etc. The structures are specially designed for 3 age categories: 0-3 years; 3-8 years; 3-12 years (maximum allowed weight - approximately 45 kg / user).
The design and arrangement of indoor playgrounds are carried out considering factors such as: available space, budget allocated for this development project, or the preferences of the beneficiaries. Regardless of the choices made, Waterboyz specialists make no compromise regarding the quality of the equipment.
For such an arrangement in an indoor perimeter, the minimum available space must measure at least 3.5 m width x 4 m length x 2.2 m height. It is also necessary to consider the integration of safety zones on the sides of the module, at least 0.5 m.
All equipment in the range of indoor playground structures comes with instructions, EN 1176, EN 1177/TUV certification, as well as all the necessary accessories for assembly and operation. Waterboyz specialists provide consultancy regarding the design and choice of games that will be part of the playground structure.
There are many interactive solutions available for setting up such a perimeter for children's play:
- ball pools;
- slides;
- obstacle courses;
- tunnels;
- sponge ball cannons;
- zip lines;
- basketball hoops;
- small bridges;
- tic-tac-toe games;
- climbing walls;
- indoor trampolines;
- horizontal and vertical obstacles;
- giant balls and many other surprises.
What guarantees do we offer for the indoor playground?
Beneficiaries of the indoor playgrounds of Waterboyz enjoy the following forms of warranty:
10-year warranty (with the possibility of extending the warranty up to 15 years) for metal structures;
5-year warranty for panels (these representing on average 80% of the entire structure of a playground);
5-year warranty for the plastic elements in the structure of indoor playgrounds (being of superior quality);
24-month warranty for the internal elements of play structures, such as small bridges or obstacles made of sponge and covered with PVC (these components can be quickly replaced, being easy to assemble/dismantle).
We provide consultancy in choosing the elements of the playhround structure, as well as in the design stage of an indoor playground. From the moment of placing the order, the delivery time of the equipment is 30 working days. The assembly of modular equipment is not a service included in the price, but Waterboyz ensures, at a cost, authorized assembly.
Characteristics of Waterboyz's Indoor Playgrounds
Our indoor playgrounds are made from prefabricated panels, which eliminate human error during assembly. These panels come already assembled and are easy to install. Such a system contains a factory-welded metal frame, mesh, and sponge wrapped in PVC with textile insertion, heat-sealed. It is certified EN 1176.
Unlike the "bar to bar" systems (China), those made from prefabricated panels do not require so-called zip-ties for attaching the mesh and sponge. These clamps are dangerous for children's safety, posing a risk of injury during playtime.
Moreover, the meshes of systems made from prefabricated panels have square meshes and are perfectly tensioned from the factory, so they do not lose firmness over time. Also, these joining systems have perfectly made finishes right from the manufacturing stage. In addition, the PVC used in their production has a textile insertion, does not peel off, and cannot crack.
Prefabricated Panel System vs "Bar to Bar" Attachment System
Unlike modular systems made from prefabricated panels, those made in a "bar to bar" system have a metal frame mounted using pipes and screws. The PVC used for their production does not have a textile insertion, cracks, and can peel off. Since their mesh is manually mounted, it loses firmness over time, not being optimally tensioned.
The so-called "Chinese style" attachment system requires over 1000 zip-ties to attach the sponge and mesh. Such equipment is of low quality, impossible to certify ISCIR or according to the EN 1176 standard.
Therefore, we recommend choosing indoor equipment with the best quality-price ratio, compliant with current standards, and that can ensure the highest levels of safety, comfort, and durability for multiple uses.
