Paddington Park Recreational Project
Anti-slip timber decking
Playscheme, one of the UK’s most reputable developers of outdoor play environments, selected anti-slip timber decking product for its project in the heart of London.
The park provides a recreation area for children of varying ages, incorporating a range of features including: miniature train station, boat and steam liner. The timber decked walkway marked out by carved bears, guides visitors through the park.
Anti-slip smooth timber decking was chosen by Playscheme for a variety of reasons: its smooth profile and two anti-slip inserts exceed the HSE’s minimum requirement - providing a safe, non-slip surface. In addition, in this case, the decking is preservative treated to achieve a 30 year service life, ensuring a cost effective long term solution.
Paddington Park is one of many Playscheme projects which include anti-slip decking due in part to the strengths of the product and also the long-standing relationship between the two companies.
We do a lot of large towers which have decked walkways up to the top of them... so we really need to have anti-slip decking.
