Playgrounds: Design , planning, and construction of customized play areas, expansion and renovation of existing facilities, maintenance

In our urban living conditions, child-friendly play areas are becoming increasingly important. They are an indispensable part of healthy physical and mental development. Children need places that encourage creativity and a variety of experiences. It is important to us that children can experience the world with all their senses in a way that is appropriate for their age. All play equipment and landscaping measures comply with the safety standards of SN EN 1176. Torsten Blanke is trained as a qualified playground inspector, among other things. Where possible, the wood comes from Swiss forests.
The construction process can also be designed creatively. If you want to involve children, parents, or educators in the practical implementation, we will find opportunities and ways to make this possible.


Playground inspection: Inspection of new and existing facilities in accordance with European safety standard EN 1176, regular inspection for wear and tear, advice and support during planning and construction, rectification of defects and construction defects.

Well-designed playgrounds offer children challenges that help them learn to assess themselves and dangers. A certain amount of risk with minor consequences increases the play value and promotes children's development.
However, hazards that are difficult or impossible for children to assess and that have serious consequences must be eliminated. This is done not only during the design and construction of new facilities, but also through regular inspection of existing facilities for wear and damage.
In Switzerland, there are clear standards and regulations for the construction of playgrounds. As qualified playground inspectors, we can check a playground for compliance with standards and issue an officially valid certificate. This is particularly important for playground operators in insurance cases.

Tree care: planting , maintenance, pruning, and felling of trees, even under
difficult conditions.
 
We live in close proximity to the trees in our gardens, parks, and streets. They grow with us and show their many faces throughout the year. Because they tower above everything else due to their height and size, they occupy a special position in their surroundings. And because they live in locations created by humans, they need our attention and care.

 
Garden design: planning , implementation, and maintenance of gardens, repairs, terraces, pavilions, ponds, paths and walls, stairs and fences, play areas.
 
A garden is a place of possibilities: you don't have to, but you can. The range between an easy-care stone desert and a lush, blooming paradise garden is enormous. Some say that the garden is the last luxury of our time.
