Wood is a userfriendly material Let the frost bite and the sun scorch, but the northern pine will endure. Nature is a good advocator of our choice of materials. The northern pine has always been exposed to four changing seasons and weather conditions shifting from one extreme to another. Pine is a natural and soft material for children. It remains pleasant to use in any weather conditions, because it does not get hot in the sun or freeze in the cold. In other words, it is no wonder that we have chosen pine, naturally tested in the harsh conditions of the North, as our material. Pine is both an economically and ecologically sustainable material. Its lifespan is estimated to be 10 to 20 years, as long as the wood used in outdoor structures is preserved and maintained in an appropriate manner. In certain playgrounds, you can even find some of our products that have been installed more than thirty years ago! Another important property the pine has in addition to durability is its environmental friendliness: as material, it has a negative carbon footprint. In other words, by choosing the correct wood material you can have an impact on slowing down climate change. We only use wood felled from certified forests, which means that the material is guaranteed to be ecologically produced. The PEFC certificate we use at the moment is the most widely used forestry certificate in the world, and it can only be granted by independent auditors. The use of certified forests is also closely monitored. 12
