Quality & safety
As a designer and supplier of indoor playgrounds, Leicon is at the forefront of quality. From the design phase, you will notice that quality is of crucial importance to us. After all, our 3D designs give a realistic picture of how your indoor playground will look like in reality. The designs are accompanied by a detailed description of all play values in the playground and this for each level. In addition, our designs excel in creativity and inventiveness. Our goal is to offer you a unique indoor playground. The shape of your building plays little role in this: we can design play structures that seamlessly follow every corner of your indoor playground.
We also have an eye for optimum quality during installation and finishing. As much as possible, we make all parts ourselves which gives us maximum control over the quality of the final product. No piece of iron will remain visible in the play structure after installation. Everything is finished seamlessly with mousse and fireproof PVC. In addition, you can choose the color of the PVC from a range of more than ten different colors.
Since your indoor playground will be used by children, safety is most important. We therefore leave nothing to chance and design and install our play structures according to the applicable European standards EN1176 and EN1177. Moreover, all the basic materials of the indoor playground have fireproof properties and are approved for this purpose. We use fireproof foam that is M1 approved, fireproof PVC that is M2 approved and safety nets that are M3 approved. We can provide fireproof certificates and safety certificates of all our materials. If the local fire department asks you for these certificates as a condition for a permit, we will immediately provide you with a copy.
The safety standards for indoor playground equipment for children are rightly very strict. This is why we always comply with these standards and of course closely follow the evolutions of these standards. To this end, we are in regular contact with the largest European testing organizations such as TÜV and Apave.
Other activities
Leicon Tarpaulin
As an international designer and manufacturer of indoor playgrounds, Leicon has been a major consumer of PVC cloth and polyether foam rubber for many years. In 2005, an in-house tarpaulin department was started so that other companies can also benefit from our thoughtful purchasing policy. Leicon's bache department produces and repairs tarpaulins for all applications, both for industrial customers and private individuals.
Leicon Swimlanes
Like most companies, Leicon was affected by the worldwide outbreak of COVID-19 in the spring of 2020. During the first lockdown in Belgium, we created a new type of surface-mounted swimming pool with the raw materials from our indoor playgrounds. Long, narrow, affordable and for real swimming. At the end of 2020, a shorter model with countercurrent was launched, for endless swimming. Thanks to its succes, Leicon Swimlanes remains on the market even after the COVID-crisis.
