1. Safety as the starting point
Every selected material must guarantee the highest level of safety for users, especially when it comes to children. This means:
- absence of sharp edges or cutting parts,
- impact resistance,
- structural stability,
- use of non-toxic and certified plastics compliant with UNI EN 71 (toy safety) and UNI EN 1176 (outdoor playground equipment).
In addition, surfaces must be easy to clean and free from harmful substances to prevent risks associated with prolonged contact or wear over time.
2. Durability and resistance: a long-term investment
A product designed for intensive use must maintain its performance and colour even after years of exposure and daily use. For this reason, companies focused on quality — such as Italveneta Didattica — rely on high-density plastic materials and on injection-moulding or rotational-moulding production processes, which ensure uniformity and long-lasting solidity.
These materials offer:
- high mechanical strength and breakage resistance;
- excellent UV resistance, ensuring vibrant colours over time;
- impermeability and easy maintenance;
- recyclability, an increasingly important element in sustainable product development.
3. Standards and certifications: guaranteed reliability
Beyond the intrinsic quality of the materials, it is essential that every product complies with the relevant european standards. UNI EN 71, UNI EN 1176, UNI EN 1729 and UNI EN 1730 certifications ensure full conformity in terms of safety, ergonomics and stability.
These certifications are not only an obligation but a true added value for the customer, who can rely on products that are safe, reliable and ready for use in schools, parks or public sports facilities.
4. Innovation and sustainability
Research never stops: today’s challenge is to combine strength, safety and environmental sustainability. More and more companies are introducing recycled and recyclable plastics into their production processes, reducing environmental impact without compromising quality.
The use of renewable energy sources, such as photovoltaic systems, reinforces a path toward environmental responsibility that is reflected in the final product.
Choosing durable and safe materials is at the heart of every design intended for intensive use. This means planning not only for immediate needs but also for long-term durability, safety and sustainability. This approach enables the creation of reliable, long-lasting products aligned with the needs of schools, public institutions and communities, where quality and safety are never optional, but a commitment we uphold.
5. Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
- Why is it important to choose certified materials?
Because they ensure safety, durability and full compliance with european regulations, avoiding risks for users.
- Which materials are best suited for intensive use?
HDPE, PP and EVA are among the most recommended thanks to their mechanical strength, colour stability and easy maintenance.
