Locally Designed. Australian Made. Built to Last.

For over 30 years, we’ve been designing, manufacturing and installing playgrounds that inspire movement, connection and adventure for communities across Australia.

Who We Are

At Activity Playgrounds, we design, manufacture and install commercial playgrounds that inspire movement, confidence and connection.

Established in 1991, we are a proudly Australian-owned family business with over 30 years of experience delivering playground solutions for councils, schools, early learning centres and community spaces.

Unlike many suppliers, we manage the entire process in-house. Our design and steel fabrication teams operate from our Wandin facility, while manufacturing, finishing and assembly take place at our Monbulk factory in Victoria.

By controlling every stage of production, we ensure consistent quality, reliable lead times and playgrounds built to perform in Australia’s demanding conditions.

Today, Activity Playgrounds supplies playground equipment across Australia and installs projects throughout Victoria and south-eastern Australia.

Our Commitment
