About

Swanley Recreation Ground is seeking a supplier for the replacement of its playground, including removal of existing equipment, installation of a wetpour base and new wetpour safety surface that complies with BS EN 1176 and has a minimum guarantee of two years (preferably longer). The product must be tested in accordance with BS EN 1177 and BS EN 7188. The project also requires topsoiling and seeding of the current play area and placement of new equipment in a new location on the Recreation Ground with a significantly uplifted play value; a maintenance plan is a desirable additional service.

Insight

This could be ideal for playground equipment suppliers and surfacing contractors with experience meeting BS EN 1176/1177/7188 standards. Key considerations include demonstrating the required standards testing and warranty, managing removal and relocation of equipment within the site, delivering measurable uplift in play value, and offering an optional maintenance plan.
