 Several fun center developers have learned the hard way about buying   indoor playground equipment from China.


Here is what several have shared with us:

 

1) A complete supply chain means lower costsA china supplier can offer more cheaper  indoor playground  equipment. That  doesnt means pads, nets, attachments and hardware can wear out in more than half the time it would take for a North American-made playground or other country made as same time as  to wear out. Also, China manufacturers build for worldwide guests not only one country, taking into account height and weight ranges. Chinese manufacturers tend to build high standard quality way possible.

 

 

2) SafetyStructural stability, eliminating pinch points, and other safety issues are stringently adhered to by  American manufacturers of playground equipment. They conform with ASTM and CPSC guidelines. Manufacturers in other country  don't need to follow these guidelines. This may be changing, but at the moment, there are no playground equipment police or inspectors that enforce ASTM.

3) InsuranceThis relates to point 2. If your playground is not safe, insurance inspections will be problematic. Let's not even think about the possibility of guest injuries.

 

 

4) ComponentsWe've heard several reports of everything from pieces of hardware to entire components being short-shipped. Chinese  manufacturers are much more rigorous in ensuring everything ships according to the order.

 

 

5) ShippingDue to the epidemic, the current situation in the world is that China has a stable transportation and logistics system.An indoor playground from China takes much shorter to arrive than one from China, and typically doesn't need the hassles of being expedited through customs.

 

 

6) AssemblyChina manufacturers will often arrange for the installation and set-up of your indoor playground, either with their own contractors or providing you the steps to get it done yourself. The playground from other country is completely a DIY project for you, and if you don't time your subcontractors and the shipment arrival correctly, your playground could sit on the docks causing a back-up of time and money.
