Made2play is a family-run company building innovative outdoor play environments where children thrive.
For more than 20 years, made2play have been designing, manufacturing, and installing playground equipment, surfacing, and enclosures for schools, zoos, theme parks, and homeowners. Their hands-on experience, supported by a strong understanding of current British and EU playground standards, means they deliver installations that are safe, practical, and built around each customer’s needs. At the heart of all their designs and installations are safety, value for money, and exceptional build quality. They offer everything from fully bespoke playground and play equipment design to reliable off-the-shelf options, giving you solutions tailored to your needs and budget.
Active play is at the heart of a healthy, happy childhood. When children climb, balance, crawl and swing, they aren’t just burning off energy – they’re building strength, confidence, resilience and friendships. The right play environment invites every child to join in, sparks imagination and turns break times into moments of discovery. At made2play, they work with schools and communities to create inspiring outdoor spaces that children are naturally drawn to. From early years explorers to confident KS2 adventurers, all their equipment is designed to challenge, include and excite – all while keeping safety, durability and value firmly in mind.
made2play are proud members of RoSPA – The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents. Through their training in playground management and the safety of indoor and outdoor play environments, they ensure their knowledge and working practices remain up to date. RoSPA also provides inspections for public and commercial play areas, along with a wide range of specialist services, guidance, and advice covering every aspect of playground safety. For additional peace of mind, all made2play team members are DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checked, confirming their suitability to work in environments where children are present. Every member of the installation teams also hold a CSCS card, demonstrating they have the appropriate training and qualifications for the work they carry out. They hold public liability insurance up to £10M and their own on-site tool and construction equipment insurances. More details on these for individual contracts is available.
Every school and setting is unique. That’s why made2play listen carefully to your goals, your pupils’ needs and your available funds. Their team handles the design, manufacture and installation, creating a seamless process from first idea to final handover. They take pride in offering solutions that maximise play opportunities without surprises on cost.

“We have been using made2play here on our primary school site for all our playground and safety surface installations for over 10 years now. They have always provided a first-class service from design to completion within projected timescales and working sympathetically around the day to day running of the school. Most recently they completed a bespoke trim trail, ball activity area and climbing tower with safety surfacing throughout and despite the challenging weather conditions did an amazing job transforming this outside space. We are really happy with the results and the children love it! Highly recommended!” Christopher Carr, Kingsworthy Primary School
“made2play have been professional from start to finish, from the planning stage to the completion of the project. All the staff involved in the project were great, professional, great communication and nothing was too much trouble, even with a few little tweaks along the way. Thank you all so much, the children are really enjoying their new play area at the nursery.” Karen Theobald, Thorney Island Nursery
“We have had a fantastic experience with made2play. The structures are completely bespoke and the quality of the finish is excellent. Everything was managed smoothly from start to finish by Rob, who was professional, responsive, and clearly takes pride in his work. The workmen were considerate, tidy, and respectful throughout. We’re extremely happy with the end result and would highly recommend made2play.” Catherine Baker, Paint Pots Nursery
