40 years ago, a young artist named Tom Lindhardt witnessed an event that changed the world of children’s play. One of his large, brightly coloured sculptures had been placed in a new housing estate to add colour to the otherwise drab surroundings. Realising that children were more interested in playing on it than admiring it, Lindhardt decided to start his own play equipment company – Kompan.

Kompan is the world’s No. 1 playground supplier. They develop, produce and market an extensive range of playground equipment that covers all age groups. All  their playgrounds are designed from the ground up to improve childhood health and learning. And all their products offer compelling design, high play value, uncompromising safety, unique innovation and long-lasting quality.

With Kompan, there's a philosophy behind the playground
As the world's No. 1 producer of quality playground equipment, they are held in high regard by their customers. These public authorities, schools, kindergartens and other institutions trust them not just to produce fun and exciting playgrounds, but to understand what's really behind a great playground. So much more than just physical constructions, KOMPAN playgrounds are designed to reach a higher goal: promoting child development through play.

Great playgrounds are built on knowledge
One reason why they are the global leader in their field is the KOMPAN Play Institute. This unique knowledge centre is a valuable repository of insight into children's play, health and learning e.g. through research. It's the perfect complement to their decades of hands-on experience making playgrounds that promote child development.

So much more than just physical constructions, KOMPAN playgrounds are designed to reach a higher goal: Promoting child development through play. So go ahead and "Play the KOMPAN Way."
