Bringing thrilling playgrounds to communities for almost a century!
We work with two of the longest standing companies in the playground industry, Little Tikes Commercial and Miracle Recreation. Founded in 1947, Little Tikes has quickly become a world-leader in fun and innovative play structures.
Since 1927, Miracle has developed creative play solutions, starting with an innovative merry-go-round. Although lots has changed since then, Miracle remains committed to reinventing the playground industry with unique products.
Playgrounds that are designed to prepare children for their future!
We firmly believe that playgrounds are a journey of self-discovery and independence. They’re where children learn how to take risks and step out of their comfort zones. Playgrounds also challenge kids to see the world from new perspectives.
As the requirements of life change, so must your playground. We’re proud to offer playground equipment that teaches kids the skills they’ll need to thrive in the 21st century. So, summon your inner child and unlock your full potential!
Playground equipment that's as safe and durable as they are fun!
Our playground equipment features several innovative components that maximize safety and longevity. One example is our Versalok clamps, which makes installation more efficient by eliminating the need to stack multiple clamps.
Many of our climbers also feature Gator Grip, a 3D textured pattern that provides a safe and comfortable grip. In addition, our Mira-Cote antimicrobial paint can be applied to posts and railings to minimize the growth of bacteria and fungus.
Industry wide standards and regulations that keep children safe!
Our commitment to providing safe playgrounds begins with meeting and/or exceeding industry standards. Our suppliers are members of regulatory bodies such as ASTM, CPSC, IPEMA, and CSA, and participate in the creation of new guidelines.
Our playground specialists are all CPSI certified, and we hold a SECOR certificate for our Health and Safety Management System. Our equipment manufacturers have also been certified as compliant with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 by Intertek.
A commitment to the environment means a better world for our children!
At CRS, protecting the environment is a top priority. We’re committed to reducing our carbon footprint, and we back up this promise with action. Wherever possible, we use consumer recycled materials in our playground equipment.
We also strive to reduce our waste through innovative technologies and lean manufacturing processes. This includes selling unused plastic to keep it out of landfills, and recycling damaged plastic parts to make Border Timbers.
