Product Description
The Octopus Themed Seesaw is a premium addition to any modern playground, blending imaginative design with structural integrity. The side panels are crafted from UV-stabilized HDPE, which resists fading and cracking, while the central beam utilizes treated timber for a natural aesthetic and sturdy support. Safety is paramount; the unit is engineered to meet EN1176 and TUV standards, featuring ergonomic handles and non-slip seating surfaces to prevent accidents during play. For maintenance, we recommend monthly inspections of the central pivot mechanism and tightening of all bolts, alongside a simple soap-and-water cleaning of the HDPE panels to maintain their vibrant blue hue. Specifically tailored for the Singapore market, this equipment features C5-M marine-grade anti-corrosion treatments on all metal components and high-humidity resistance for the timber elements. This ensures the seesaw withstands the intense tropical coastal climate without structural degradation, making it an ideal choice for seaside parks and urban residential developments where salt spray and moisture are constant factors.
Anti-fungal pressure-treated timber with stainless steel fasteners resists tropical moisture and insect damage.

Early Learning & Preschool Facilities
Given its low-profile design and secure hand-grip bars visible in the construction, this rocker is perfectly scaled for younger children. Its compact footprint allows for easy placement in daycare yards or urban pocket parks where space for dynamic play is limited.
Safety & Installation
Regulatory Compliance
Fully compliant with EN1176, CE, TUV standards. Critical fall height of 0.9m validated against EN1176 free-fall requirements. Every weld and joint tested for finger-entrapment, head-entrapment, and crush-point prevention. Age-group classification (2 - 6 Years Old) verified for developmental appropriateness and dimensional scaling.
Safety Zone & Surfacing
Critical Fall Height: 0.9 m. Requires a minimum safety zone of 5.7m × 4.0m. Recommended surfacing: EPDM Rubber Wet-pour or high-density artificial turf with shock pads.
Installation & Engineering Support
This 2.2m × 0.5m structure (1.1 m² footprint) ships in 2 modular pre-assembled sections to minimize on-site labor. All sections are forklift-manageable — no crane required. Estimated assembly time: 4 person-hours with standard tools. Installation manual includes torque specifications for all bolted connections and weld-inspection checkpoints.
