This large – scale indoor children’s playground is a haven of diverse play experiences.
Spanning over [120] square meters, it is carefully divided into multiple zones to cater to different interests and age groups.
The creative arts zone is equipped with large easels, a variety of art supplies like washable paints, and modeling clay.
Adjacent to it is the sports zone, featuring mini – basketball hoops, a small soccer field with soft – sided goals, and a track for running and scooter riding.
The soft play area for the younger ones is filled with soft play castles, giant foam building blocks, and gentle rocking animals. All surrounded by soft padding to ensure safety.
1. Clear Site Information & Spatial Compliance
The client must provide detailed, accurate site data—this is the foundation of customization:
- Basic dimensions: Provide precise length, width, and height of the indoor space (e.g., 20m × 15m × 5m).
- Including any fixed obstacles (columns, load-bearing beams, electrical boxes, or emergency exits) that cannot be moved.
- Marking these on CAD drawings or on-site photos helps avoid design conflicts.
- Structural load-bearing capacity: Confirm the floor’s load-bearing limit with the building’s property management or structural engineer.
- Manufacturers will design equipment weights to match this limit to ensure safety.
- Environmental compliance: Ensure the site meets indoor safety standards. Such as adequate ventilation (to prevent stuffiness during peak hours), fire safety access, and power supply capacity.
2. Defined Target Audience & Functional Requirements
To align the equipment with business positioning, the client must clarify core user and functional needs:
- Target age group: Specify the main users (e.g., toddlers aged 1–3, children aged 3–12, or family-friendly designs ). This determines equipment difficulty (e.g., low-speed slides and soft padding for toddlers, high-adventure climbing walls for older kids) and safety configurations (e.g., higher guardrails for younger children).
- Business & functional goals: Outline key purposes, such as increasing foot traffic.
- Extending customer stay time (adding rest areas for parents or themed play zones), or matching brand positioning (e.g., a “space-themed” design for a tech-focused mall).
- Capacity & flow requirements: Confirm the expected maximum number of users to ensure the equipment’s layout supports smooth traffic flow (no bottlenecks in climbing or sliding areas) and meets safety density standards .
3. Adherence to Safety & Industry Standards
Both clients and manufacturers must comply with national/international safety standards to avoid legal and operational risks
- Material safety commitment: Clients need to agree to use child-safe, non-toxic materials (e.g., food-grade plastic, PVC fabric, galvanized steel frames) as specified by the manufacturer.
4. Reasonable Budget & Timeline Planning
Customizing large-scale commercial equipment requires clear budget and timeline agreements:
- Budget confirmation: The client should define a clear budget range (covering design, manufacturing, installation).
- This helps the manufacturer optimize the design.For example, balancing high-cost interactive features (e.g., AI game zones) with cost-effective core play structures (e.g., slides, climbing nets) to meet budget constraints.
- Timeline alignment: Agree on a realistic project timeline, including design approval (3–5 weeks), manufacturing (5–8 weeks, depending on complexity), on-site installation (7–15 days).
5. Cooperative Communication & Documentation
Smooth collaboration relies on clear communication and formalized agreements:
- Design review & confirmation: The client must actively participate in design reviews. Providing feedback on 3D renderings and signing off on the final design to avoid rework.
- Formal contract signing: Both parties need to sign a detailed contract specifying product specifications, safety commitments, warranty terms, payment terms, and liability for delays or defects. This protects both the client’s investment and the manufacturer’s interests.
- Post-installation coordination: The client should arrange for staff training as provided by the manufacturer, and confirm acceptance of the equipment after passing safety tests.
By meeting these conditions, clients can ensure the customized indoor large-scale commercial amusement equipment is safe, functional, and aligned with business goals.
While enabling the manufacturer to deliver a high-quality product efficiently.
