Our Mission - Stuart Evans

We have thoroughly enjoyed putting together the design concept for your new school play area. We pride ourselves on designing play areas that can be used by children of all ages and abilities, ultimately creating play areas for all. The underlying mission for eibe Play, is to create play areas that help develop and promote fit and healthy children . We also pride ourselves on designing natural play spaces that fit into the surrounding area, with sustainability at the forefront of our minds, from the timber we use to the installation teams who bring them to life. Our aim is to create low maintenance, long lasting play spaces that can be enjoyed by children for years to come. Your design brief and location really excited us, as we felt that our mission was evenly matched with your brief for this new play space. We feel this play area will become a very popular addition to the school and will be well used and loved for years to come. We have chosen equipment that we feel will benefit the children using it and offer the right amount of play value and features for your school children. In accordance with your brief and our discussions it was vital that we include equipment which can be used by children with a wide range of abilities. We felt it was vital that we challenged the school children with the play features our play equipment offers, and that the equipment helps promote key development skills such as eye hand coordination and social and team work skills.

Your new play area also focuses on providing social play value by delivering and environment where children can take part in cooperative play, social interaction dramatic and imaginative play.

Ultimately, we feel our design offers the optimum play value, opportunities and experiences for your children using the play space.

We are keen to work with you as a partner, so please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Exact positions & orientation of new items may be subject to a final site survey and setting out plan. Any inconsistencies on site should be verified with eibe before commencement of work. eibe recommend that existing trees are risk-assessed by the client to ensure the integrity of accessible branches, that overhanging limbs do not conflict with new play equipment or vehicle access and that the canopy will not produce excessive leaf drop which could cause a hazard within the play area. This design layout conforms to the relevant EN Safety Standard. GRASS & GRASS MAT SURFACING Where equipment is installed directly into grass and the free height of fall is between 0.6m and 1.5m it is the responsibility of the playground operator to ensure that the grass sward is maintained in good order. Where equipment is installed with grass mat surfacing it is the responsibility of the playground operator to ensure that the grass is maintained in good order. When laid directly onto existing grass this surface will follow the natural contours of the ground. RUBBER MULCH SURFACING eibe recommend the use of a 50mm stone base when installing rubber mulch. If installed without the finished surface will be a reflection of the ground beneath it, following any undulations, & will not be a completely flat surface. Rubber mulch will not cure any existing drainage problems & will require foundations and/or some kind of drainage system prior to installation.

Jubilee Park is situated in the heart of Waterlooville, Hants, and is a well-used and loved playing field. The playing fields are often used for community events and are also home to a MUGA, Skate Park and numerous sports clubs such as Bowls and Cricket. Havant Borough Council has previously preferred to use metal play equipment for their play spaces due to past experiences using timber. However, in 2021 eibe Play arranged site visits of three play spaces around Fareham with the Park Officers for Havant Borough Council. Fareham Borough Council installed these play spaces over two years, which previously had the same opinion. All three of these destinations play spaces have been

a great success and changed Fareham Borough Councils’ mindset on the quality and durability of timber play equipment. After visiting these play areas with eibe Play and speaking to the council members from Fareham Borough Council, the council saw the quality. It felt the durability was suitable for both parties to feel confident enough for eibe Play to tender for any of their play area refurbishment schemes. A few months passed, and then eibe Play received the tender paperwork for the exciting redevelopment of the Jubilee Park Play Area. We were highly excited to tender for this scheme, and after a site visit, to better understand the requirements and the playing space as a whole, eibe Play started the design stage of the tender submission. We felt this play area, especially the local community, deserved a WOW factor play area to fit in with the destination feel for the rest of the park. This was at the forefront of our minds with the initial design work. We also thought that the play area needed to represent elements of the nature found around the park, which would help with the theme of the play area and educate the local children. However, this can be seen

all around the play area, with the theming within the wet pour surface. The play area also needed to be inclusive and include play equipment that children of all abilities can use. The play equipment eibe Play has chosen for this play space included elements designed for reasonable access for all users; however, it also allowed all children to play together without being singled out. This can be seen in particular with the inclusion of the Inclusive Floor Roundabout and the Play Unit Lauren which has an accessible ramp leading up to the main platform, surrounded by play panels. Another critical factor when designing any play space is accessibility for all users. Therefore, we have created all the play equipment accessible via a hard-standing surface. Which also helps the equipment to be used all year round. In February 2022, eibe Play was excited to hear the news that we had been awarded the contract for the refurbishment of Jubilee Park Play Area. The work commenced in April 2022, with a predicted finish date of the May bank holiday weekend. With much hard work, we managed to meet this deadline, where

the play area was opened to many excited children keen to use the great new play equipment the play space had to offer. eibe Play was keen to support the council and the Friends of the Park group to create a grand opening worthy of this great new play space. Therefore, eibe Play donated balloons, ribbons, bunting and goodie bags for the first children to use the play area. Eibe Play is looking forward to a fantastic working relationship with Havant Borough Council to ensure the play space is a success and well-loved by the local community for years to come.

Fabulously located along the A27 on Southampton Hill next to Titchfield Abbey in Fareham. Abbey Meadows story started back in 2018 with the council looking to install a brand-new natural style play area ranging equipment for different ages and abilities. Following a consultation, the residents and young people took part in an online game where they had the chance to pick the equipment they would like to be installed. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the work on preparing the site

area was delayed; therefore, the project began in 2021 and was opened to the public by the Mayor of Fareham Councillor, Mrs Pamela Bryant, on Wednesday 7th June 2021. This new play area has been designed with the full consideration of the history of the 16th century ‘Titchfield Abbey’ and complements the surroundings of the park’s location. eibe play is also proud to have designed and installed the council’s two other destination play areas at Holly Hill and Daedalus Common. The new Abbey Meadows play area features a range of equipment for all ages and abilities, including a multi-climbing unit themed bespoke by the designers at eibe play, which is suitable for children with reduced mobility, meaning all

children will be able to experience play and have fun together. eibe worked closely with the council to ensure the play area was functional, adventurous but still challenging and safe, which is essential for a child’s development. Alongside the junior castle play unit, eibe installed a nest swing, junior and toddler swings, rockers and a snake swing which are all situated on top of a bonded rubber mulch surface. Executive Member for Leisure and Community, Cllr Sue Bell, said: “This play area will be a huge benefit for the local community and visitors to Titchfield. It is incredibly important that children of all abilities can play together, so the large multi-climbing unit allows children with reduced mobility to come and play with their friends. “I would like to thank the residents of Titchfield and the Titchfield Village Trust who were involved in the consultation process and particularly the children from Titchfield Primary School who shared their ideas and helped us. I would also like to thank Eibe Play for coming up with this fantastic design.”.

Following a successful play area refurbishment in Findon for Arun District Council, eibe Play was asked to provide options to replace an older climbing structure that had passed its usable date at their play area at Hotham Park. Hotham Park is the only large park to serve the people of Bognor Regis. Some 23000 people live within half a mile of the park, and an estimated 14000 live within that distance. The park is close to the town centre, Butlins Holiday Centre, the University Campus and the seafront.

The brief was that the client wanted to create that WOW factor and provide a climbing structure designed for children aged seven and above, where they could experience a lot of challenge and problem-solving.

After consultation with the council, it was agreed that the exciting Kaya Play System was the unit with which the council wished to move forward. The council loved the multiple climbing opportunities that the Kaya had to offer. The various timber beams, located at different heights and angles, make this item challenging to climb and balance. The council also liked the fact that once the children got to the top of the structure, they would get a sense of achievement. However, on the flip side, if they want to get off at any point, they can. The internal nets and crossings make it one of our most challenging climbing structures for juniors and teens, with plenty of opportunities to grow and improve key development and risk taking skills. Such as hand-eye coordination and upper-body strength.

Made from durable Pine, with metal feet and stainless steel fixings, this play structure fits into any surroundings. And offers a lovely warm, and natural play experience. The installation went without a hitch and was completed within two working weeks. The installation was complemented with a brand new bonded mulch surface that was laid over a new Type one stone sub base. eibe Play cannot wait to hear the feedback from the local children and will work alongside the council to ensure it’s a repeated success for many years to come.

Adur and Worthing Council and eibe Play share a fantastic relationship and have previously worked on various play spaces across Worthing, including Tarring Park and Gull Island. Following these successful projects, eibe Play was asked to visit Adur Recreational Ground to meet the council’s Ranger teams and to discuss the potential options open to the council to replace a climbing unit that had come to the end of its working life.

The play area is very popular with the local residents , and as it is located right next to the River Adur, it is often used as a destination by families out for a walk along the River. Families frequently use the fields surrounding the play area for picnics, dog walkers and community events. The council approached local schools and communicated via their social media streams to ask the general public what they would like and what their preferred climbing unit was. After a few weeks of gathering votes, the council chose to use our amazing play unit Similaun. The council and public were drawn to the unique duo slide, as well as the challenging climbing nets and crossings. They were also overjoyed to hear that this was the first one to be installed in the UK, as it is new to the eibe Plays range. The Play Unit Similaun, is designed for children aged between 5-12 years old and is from our popular Ecorino range. Made fromdurable Pine with galvanised steel feet, this fantastic unit is the perfect match for any natural play space. Themetal feet ensure nomoisture

will affect the timber, and with its stainless steel fixings, it is also perfect for a seafront or waterside location. The Similaun is also packed full of play features, including the unique tunnel net, tunnel and challenging ramp and criss-cross ladder. Once the children access the top of the Similaun Unit, they can enjoy the great views across the river and beyond. eibePlaywasaskedto install theclimbingunit into theexisting bark pit and started the installation by laying the groundwork and footings ready for the assembly of the climbing unit. The works were carried out during the winter of 2023, so our installation team had to deal with both rain and severe frost; however, theymade a good process andmanaged to complete the installation within ten days. The play area was opened by the council in time to be enjoyed by the children over a gloriously sunny winter’s weekend, and the initial feedback we have received has been very positive. eibe Play hope that the Similaun Unit will be loved and well used by local children for years to come!

Foundations No Timber in the Ground

• eibe play equipment requires minimal maintenance. The timber can age naturally without any upkeep apart frommaintenance checks relating to moving components, nuts and bolts etc. If vandalism does occur then this can be easily addressed and remedied. For example, graffiti can be removed by sanding the wood, returning it to its natural condition without any need to re-treat the timber. Furthermore, should part of the equipment be deemed damaged beyond economical repair, due to its modular nature, eibe equipment may be easily repaired by replacing only the damaged section rather than a major section of the equipment. • eibe uses Galvanised or Stainless Steel feet, as required, for mounting our equipment onto the ground foundations and does not install timber support posts directly into the ground. With this and the CCB (Copper Chromium Boride) treatment, we have eradicated any problems or potential weaknesses in the structure of the equipment caused by rot or damp. All equipment is designed and installed to facilitate ease of access for inspection and maintenance throughout the whole of the play area • The wooden elements of the equipment will add a softness and subtlety to the play area which will not be present in an all- steel design. We believe in blending our designs into the natural environment and this is more easily achieved and aesthetically pleasing than non-organic materials.

Surfacing Bark Mulch

As with most Playbarks and Play Woodchips available, they are manufactured from natural, organic bark and wood type materials. Therefore they provide an attractive but very safe impact-absorbing surface if used within our guidelines. Utilising nature’s own products as such, determines these products may contain a small quantity of splinters which ultimately knit together to assist in providing the impact-absorbing surface. Play Chip is wood sourced from the inner most part of the tree - it’s chipped, and treated. It’s lighter in colour than Play Bark and creates a natural, rustic look. Play Chip is generally the harder wearing of the two materials and will therefore last longer. We recommend it for play areas that receive very heavy foot traffic and require substantial durability. Such surfaces are usually commonplace in public play areas in parks and school playgrounds, along with more expensive options such as the rubber surface layer you sometimes see beneath the larger climbing frames. They can also be employed in private play areas in gardens to make the ground less dangerous to fall on.

• Products are clean, safe and 100% natural. • They are cost-effective alternatives to synthetic surfaces • Very easy to install and maintain. • Our safety surfacing materials are FSC sourced.

HDPE

High Density Polyethylene

HDPE

• UV stabilized for fade resistant outdoor use • Will not rot, delaminate, splinter or crack • Stain and graffiti resistant for easy cleaning

• Durable orange peel textured finish • Moisture and chemical resistant • High impact resistant • 100% recyclable and non toxic • Easily machined and engraved • No heavy metals • No phthalates

High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) sheets are extruded and co-extruded thermoplastic materials that are used worldwide in the manufacture of panels and components for the Playground, Sport, Leisure and Recreation Industries. The versatile properties of this material, including UV stability, make it resistant to fading, moisture, weather, stain and graffiti. The perfect choice for outdoor environments. HDPE is easily routed or engraved using current CNC technology, in the case of 2-colour sheet options, you can remove the outer colour and revealing the colour inside to create almost unlimited design capabilities. Increasingly used across a wide range of industries and applications, HDPE panels are being used to replace timber and composite panel components. Whilst the initial cost of these materials may be lower, the long-termmaintenance requirements and shorter life expectancy make their choice a false economy. HDPE also offered as softer, warmer and more play friendly feel to it. In addition to all the product and user benefits, HDPE is 100% recyclable

Aftercare and Maintenance Maintenance

Support

eibe supplies all relevant installation and maintenance instructions for each piece of equipment . This references the information provided above and in addition, provides specific requirements for the item of equipment. Combining the installation and maintenance instructions ensures that individual parts can be clearly identified and provides an understanding of how the equipment is assembled which will assist with any maintenance requirements. Where required, eibe supply specialist tools in order to carry out the required equipment maintenance – examples of this include specific drill/screw pieces in order to tighten anti-tamper fixings. Should the Customer wish to receive installation/maintenance instructions for each piece of equipment suggested as part of this tender response, these are readily available.

eibe playground equipment is designed and manufactured with a minimummaintenance requirement. Inevitably with any play equipment, maintenance activities will be required and shall be undertaken to ensure equipment longevity and to maintain compliance with the relevant standards. The following regime is recommended for all eibe play equipment:

Quarterly Checks

We recommend that a thorough check of all play equipment and entire play areas are conducted on a quarterly basis. Checks should include the above and, in addition, should include checks to ensure that all fixings are tight using the correct tools and correcting where not. In addition, undertaking a more thorough check to identify any wear to any moving parts, ropes, or fixings, and where appropriate taking remedial action.

Annual Checks

We recommend that an annual inspection is carried out, which would include the above recommendations. In addition, eibe advises that a qualified Independent Inspector carry out an inspection and produce a report of the play area and equipment to ensure that all elements remain sound, and in line with the appropriate standards. Where potential issues are highlighted then remedial action shall be taken. Please note that the above information is based upon eibe’s experience and recommendation only. Each play area and item of play equipment is different; therefore the Customer should instigate an appropriate maintenance plan, taking into consideration this guidance to ensure that all play areas and play equipment remain available for use. Based on experience, equipment is likely to require more regular maintenance during the first three months following its installation. This is on the basis that the equipment is adapting and acclimatising to its environment, and in addition during this period the amount of usage is likely to peak. Therefore, maintenance teams should plan for this and react accordingly. Whilst all types of equipment, features and elements within a public open space are potentially at risk from damage and wear from excessive use, eibe ensures that through careful design, quality manufacturing and extensive experience in developing public play environments, our product characteristics are: All materials used are of the highest quality, and designed specifically for heavy and potential inappropriate use. All appropriately treated where possible to be fire retardant All include anti-tamper fixings All equipment is modular allowing individual components to be replaced separately All fixings and areas for maintenance are assessable and can be reached without the need to remove sections of equipment Durability

Aftercare

eibe can provide aftercare services; not just parts supply, but inspection and assistance with future maintenance. In addition to the recommendations on maintenance and the supply of documentation needed to conduct and carry this out, eibe will appoint a dedicated Play Consultant in order to assist with any questions, queries, or issues which the Customer may have following contract award and project completion. Your Play Consultant will be your main point of contact for any contract related queries. This will provide you with a single point of contact rather than numerous, ensuring clear and consistent lines of communication for all contract queries, which may include meetings, site visits, phone and email communication. The Play Consultant will be supported by our Project Manager and Project Administration team to ensure continuity of service and after care during the contract delivery stage and beyond.
