SHELTER & SHADES

Safety for children is a top priority for playground owners. During the summer, temperatures soar, meaning playground equipment becomes hot to the touch.

SPORTS EQUIPMENT

In many cases, playgrounds are located in or close to sporting venues. As the city’s #1 contractor for all things playground, American Playground Company of Des Moines sells and installs a variety of sporting equipment: batting cages, bleachers, basketball hoops, goalposts, nets, and more! Contact us to purchase the products that can help broaden your Des Moines playground's appeal.

SURFACING

According to a report from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, three of every four playground-related injuries are the result of accidental falls. On some level, such injuries are unavoidable due to the nature of playground entertainment: kids like to run, climb, and play tag. However, you can lessen the severity of falls by installing safer surfacing. American Playground Company of Des Moines recommends rubber and artificial turf to reduce the severity of falls that occur during playtime.

FREE STANDING ELEMENTS

Freestanding elements are special features detached from the playground but part of the same recreational area: swings, climbers, slides, ball pits, spinning play equipment, etc. You can diversify the number of fun time options at your playground in Des Moines with freestanding elements. American Playground Company of Des Moines is the city’s top contractor for such items and anything else you need for your playground!

FITNESS EQUIPMENT

Because they function as a venue for climbing, running, and general fun time, playgrounds also encourage exercise among children. Because of this, American Playground Company of Des Moines’s inventory includes exercise-specific equipment such as pull bars, curl stations, and cardio walkers! Adults are not precluded from using athletic equipment, either. Now parents can exercise either with their kids or while watching them play on the playground.

INCLUSIVE ELEMENTS

American Playground Company of Des Moines sells and installs a wide selection of inclusive play equipment. Ramps, quartets, sand spots, and playground structures designed specifically for inclusiveness broadens user demographics, which also benefits the community at large. In short: an inclusive playground helps bring together parents and kids from all around.

DOG PARKS

Here at American Playground Company of Des Moines, we recognize that pets are part of the family and want to participate in fun time excursions. For this reason, our itinerary includes designed-for-pets equipment such as hurdles, balance planks, and multi-level steps. This allows dogs to exercise and have fun after accompanying their families to the playground.


The American Playground Company is proud to be working with Superior Recreational Products as a quality supplier for all of your playground needs.
