Playworld 2024 Catalog

Providing Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska with Playworld® Products

In 1971 Dale Miller established the Playworld brand, and they have been a leader in the playground industry ever since. With Playworld headquarters being located in Lewisburg, PA, we can confidently say that our equipment is made and manufactured right here in the USA!

Proven Craftsmanship, Premium Materials

Super Durable Paint; Playworld’s exclusive architectural-grade, super durable polyester powder coating provides enhanced, light-stable pigments for superior UV stability and fade resistance.
Rust Defender; Our special primer boosts our super durable paint with an extra layer of rust protection on weld joints, brackets, and high-traffic areas.
Stainless Steel Hardware; Backed by a lifetime warranty, all of our hardware is stainless steel to prevent rust and corrosion. Most require only a TORX® head driver for hassle-free assembly. Exposed hardware is tamper-resistant for added security.
Compounded Pigmented Rotomolded Plastics; All Playworld rotomolded plastic components are shatter-proof polyethylene (PE) plastic made of compounded pigmented resins, which provide twice as much impact resistance as dry-blended resins. Our plastics are also UV resistant, enabling colors to remain bright over time.
Strong Platforms; Our play structure platforms are the strongest in the industry—made of one-piece, 12-gauge perforated steel that's flange-formed, reinforced with extra support beams, and coated for extra protection.
Double-Banded Clamps; The most versatile, easy-to-install clamp in the industry, Playworld’s die-cast, aluminum alloy double-banded clamp features an exclusive S-lap design that eliminates all clamp string entanglement concerns. Our clamps are more than 10 times stronger than required by ASTM.
Flo-Coat® Posts and Tubing; Playworld’s posts and tubing are made with a process called Flo-Coat®. First, our steel is cold-formed to provide high-shield, high-tensile strength. Then, it’s bolstered by an interior corrosion-resistant coating. We enhance quality even further with a superior triple coating process: uniform zinc galvanizing, chromate conversion coating, and clear polymer coating. Our tubing is then washed and sanitized before we apply a baked-on powder coating for strong molecular adhesion. Posts are available in galvanized steel or recycled aluminum in 2-3/8", 3-1/2", and 5" diameters.
Factory-Installed Post Caps; Super tough, cast-aluminum post caps are factory-installed and riveted in place for maximum durability and vandal resistance.
Laser Cut, Coped Metal; Our welders use laser cut, coped parts to create stronger, cleaner joints that are able to withstand constant use and varying weight loads. Coped welds are stronger because more of the tubing surface is in direct contact with the weldment, and the smooth joint stops water from entering, which prevents rust. Our steel plates also undergo a tumbling process to remove burrs and sharp edges, which provides better paint coverage to help eliminate rust.
PolyFiberCrete®; Our Origins™ Boulders are made of solid, precast PolyFiberCrete® - a revolutionary material that provides non-slip, high-traction climbing texture. It's durable, easy to clean and repair, and backed by a ten-year warranty.
Tough Ropes; All of our rope climbing activities are made from 5/8" (16mm) wire rope covered in polyamide yarn (carpet fiber) for superior abrasion resistance and UV color-fastness. Our traditional four-strand design provides the best grip for climbing.
UV-Blocking Shade Fabric; Playworld shades use a one-piece fabric solution for maximum square foot coverage, blocking 94% of sunlight and protecting children from harmful UV rays. The fabric is knitted from a high-density polyethylene monofilament and infused with UV inhibitors, so it won't fade, distort, sag, or abrade over time.

Inclusion is something that we feel every playground should have, and in 2010 Playworld partnered with Mara Kaplan and Let Kids Play to optimize equipment for children with disabilities and to increase efforts to encourage more inclusive playgrounds. We at Next Generation take inclusivity seriously, and each of our Recreation Design Specialists are Certified Playground Designers through Play Power. We aim to unite communities together on one ground, the playground!
