Description
The Retro Industrial Excavator turns a vintage construction machine into a complete climb-and-slide course. Available in industrial grey-black or classic yellow, it wraps a central rope well, two horizontal levels, hammocks and a bucket-shaped outer net into an 11.8 m machine silhouette that fascinates children aged 5 to 14.
Construction-site imagination, playground engineering
The narrative starts at the digger’s arm and bucket, recreated as an external climbing net, and continues through a central rope well where platforms alternate with rubber mats. Rope ladders, climbing nets and a large rope lounger connect the two levels, while a gangway leads to the slide – the operator’s express exit. HPL decorative panels complete the retro industrial look, making the structure a natural fit for regenerated industrial sites, urban playgrounds and construction-themed areas.
