When designing a children's playground using 20mm-thick rubber tiles and incorporating equipment such as slides, it's essential to prioritize safety and adhere to European safety standards. Here are some key aspects to consider when planning and installing such a playground:

  1. Safety zones: According to European safety standard EN 1176, playgrounds should include safety zones around play equipment to minimize the risk of injury. The safety zones are areas where it is expected that a child may fall or collide with other children. The size of these zones will depend on the type of equipment installed, its height, and the age group of the children using the playground.

  2. Fall protection: Rubber tiles with a 20mm thickness provide a cushioned surface that can help absorb the impact of falls and reduce the risk of injuries. The tiles should be installed beneath and around all play equipment, with special attention to the safety zones, to ensure that children have a soft surface to land on if they fall.

  3. Equipment spacing: To prevent collisions and overcrowding, ensure that there is adequate space between playground equipment. The spacing will depend on the size of the play structures and the age group of the children using the playground.

  4. Slide safety: When installing a children's slide, ensure that it has a sufficient run-out area at the bottom, where children can slow down and safely exit the slide. Additionally, make sure that the slide is installed at the correct angle and height according to the manufacturer's guidelines.

  5. Playground layout: Design the playground layout with clear pathways and separate areas for different types of activities (e.g., climbing, sliding, swinging) to minimize the risk of collisions and injuries.

  6. Equipment installation: Ensure that all playground equipment is installed securely and according to the manufacturer's instructions. Regularly inspect and maintain the equipment to ensure it remains safe and functional.

  7. Fencing and signage: Depending on the location and size of the playground, consider installing fencing or barriers to prevent children from running into nearby hazards such as roads or water bodies. Additionally, clear signage indicating age-appropriate use, safety guidelines, and emergency contact information can help promote a safe play environment.

  8. Compliance with European standards: Ensure that all playground equipment and surfacing materials meet European safety standards, such as EN 1176 (playground equipment) and EN 1177 (impact-absorbing surfacing materials). This compliance ensures that the playground is safe and suitable for children to use.

By considering these safety aspects and adhering to European safety standards, you can create a fun and secure play environment for children using 20mm-thick rubber tiles and playground equipment like slides.
