Yes. The Space Series by Golden Times is engineered to meet EN 1177 impact requirements through controlled fall-height design, energy-absorbing surfacing, and verified impact performance. With controlled HIC and g-max values aligned to playground fall risks, it delivers reliable protection for children across kindergartens, parks, communities, and amusement venues worldwide.
EN 1177 is a European safety standard focused on playground surfacing performance. It evaluates how well a surface reduces injury risk when a child falls from playground equipment. The standard defines acceptable limits for head impact severity and peak acceleration, ensuring the surface beneath equipment matches the equipment’s fall height.
For playground operators and buyers, EN 1177 confirms that safety zones under slides, climbers, and towers are properly protected. Golden Times integrates these requirements into the Space Series from the early design stage to ensure consistent compliance across installations.
The Space Series uses impact-attenuating surfacing systems designed to absorb and disperse fall energy. Materials such as elastic rubber layers and modular safety flooring deform on impact, reducing force transferred to the body.
Golden Times aligns surfacing thickness with equipment fall heights, typically covering standard playground structures used in kindergartens, schools, and public parks. Each configuration is tested to confirm that impact values remain within accepted safety limits, ensuring dependable performance in real-world use.
EN 1177 relies on several measurable indicators to assess safety performance. The Space Series is designed around these benchmarks to ensure predictable results.
| Impact Indicator | EN 1177 Requirement | Space Series Performance Range |
|---|---|---|
| Head Impact Value (HIC) | Not exceeding 1000 | Typically below required limit |
| Peak Acceleration (g-max) | Not exceeding 200g | Controlled within safe range |
| Critical Fall Height | Matches equipment fall height | Designed to suit common playground heights |
This alignment allows Golden Times to deliver playground systems that meet regulatory expectations without overengineering or unnecessary cost.
Impact performance is confirmed through controlled drop testing using calibrated instruments. Tests simulate real fall scenarios by dropping a standardized mass from different heights onto the surfacing system.
Golden Times applies both pre-installation testing and on-site verification after installation. Multiple impact points are assessed to ensure consistency across the entire safety zone, not just a single location.
The Space Series combines certified safety with engaging visual themes. Its space-inspired design encourages imaginative and educational play while maintaining a strong focus on injury prevention.
For playground equipment wholesalers, developers, and municipal buyers, Golden Times offers a balance of durability, compliance, and long service life. This reduces long-term maintenance costs and supports smoother approval processes during inspections and audits.
On-site verification involves checking impact performance after installation to ensure the surface performs as designed. This process confirms that installation quality has not compromised safety.
Golden Times supports clients by providing clear safety zone layouts and guidance on verification procedures. Regular checks help operators maintain consistent protection in high-use areas such as slide exits and climbing zones.
Routine maintenance is essential to keep impact performance stable over time. Surfaces should be inspected for wear, compression, or uneven areas that could reduce shock absorption.
Golden Times recommends scheduled inspections, especially in high-traffic locations. Prompt repair or replacement preserves safety performance and extends the usable life of the Space Series, making it suitable for schools, communities, and commercial venues.
Yes. The Space Series can be adapted with thicker or reinforced surfacing systems to support higher fall heights when required. These customized solutions are commonly used in larger parks or themed attractions with taller play structures.
Golden Times validates these configurations through targeted testing, ensuring safety performance remains consistent even in advanced installations.
“Safety is never a decorative feature; it is a structural commitment. In the Space Series, every design decision begins with impact control and real fall scenarios. Our team has refined these systems over years of production to ensure they deliver reliable protection while still inspiring curiosity and active play. This balance is why Golden Times solutions are trusted across schools, parks, and public spaces globally.”
Incorrect safety zone sizing is a frequent issue that leads to non-compliance. Another risk is poor installation, which can reduce surface effectiveness before the playground even opens.
Golden Times emphasizes matching surfacing performance to actual equipment fall heights. This approach avoids safety gaps and helps buyers pass inspections with confidence.
Golden Times provides technical documentation, installation guidance, and post-delivery support for international clients. This service model is designed for wholesalers, developers, and procurement teams managing multi-site playground projects.
By simplifying compliance management, Golden Times helps clients focus on creating engaging play environments rather than navigating complex safety requirements.
The Space Series meets EN 1177 impact criteria through structured design, verified testing, and practical maintenance guidance. By aligning surfacing performance with real playground risks, Golden Times delivers dependable safety for children and peace of mind for buyers. Choosing compliant equipment, verifying installation, and maintaining surfaces regularly are the key actions that ensure long-term playground safety and value.
