Case Studies Walkers invest in 21st Century Playgrounds with Playdale ‘Parks for Life’ We were invited to an international tender by PepsiCo Ltd for Walkers to be involved in an exciting new project ‘Parks for Life’. We were delighted to be awarded with the contract to design and install exciting and innovative new playgrounds for the pilot year of the Parks for Life project. Speaking about i.play on the regional television news programme, Thames Valley Today, Gary Lineker said “there are all too many distractions nowadays with computer games and Playstations; it’s quite hard to get kids off the sofa so something like this which is obviously great fun will definitely encourage them to do that!” The first mains powered i.play installed in Germany! Playdale’s i.play continued its quest for world domination as Germany installed its first Intelligent Play System. Playdale were delighted to be involved in the €600,000 project and installed the first mains powered i.play as part of an exciting development at St. Matthaus Ein Zuhause fur kinder in Bremen. The i.play was originally designed as a solar powered unit, although due to the location of the German site it was decided that a mains powered i.play would be more suitable. Viva i.play! Our innovative i.play concept has now gone global, with its first installation in Spain. The unit, located in Orio, San Sebastian, was the first to be installed outside of the UK and Ireland and is currently attracting attention from intrigued residents throughout the local community. With its picturesque waterfront setting, the i.play has been installed alongside an existing multi use games area, creating a popular destination for children and young adults to improve their fitness in a fun and sociable way.
