For every indoor playground owner, safety and hygiene are as important as fun. Clean and well-maintained equipment ensures children have a safe, enjoyable experience—while giving parents peace of mind. From daily cleaning to annual safety inspections, here’s how to keep your indoor playground in top condition.
Daily Cleaning
Your First Line of Defense
--------------占位---------------
Children interact with every surface—slides, tunnels, ball pits, soft play walls—so germ control must start with daily disinfection.
Key Tasks:
Wipe high-touch surfaces such as handrails, climbing grips, and foam blocks with non-toxic, child-safe disinfectants
Spot clean visible dirt and stains throughout the day
Use a ball washing machine weekly; manually clean loose balls more frequently
Vacuum and mop soft flooring and carpeted areas
Clean toilets and common areas if inside the play center
Tip: Schedule full cleanings before opening and after closing. A quick mid-day refresh helps during peak hours.
Weekly and Monthly Maintenance
Keep Things in Check
--------------占位---------------
Cleanliness is one side of safety—structural integrity is the other. Regular maintenance reduces accident risk and prolongs the life of your indoor playground equipment.
Weekly Tasks:
Inspect soft play elements for damage or loose covers
Tighten bolts on climbing frames or trampolines
Check ropes, nets, and foam for wear and tear
Refill cleaning products and hand sanitizers
Confirm signage and safety notices are intact
Monthly Tasks:
Deep clean all surfaces and sanitize lesser-used areas
Lubricate ziplines, rotating features, and other moving parts
Replace aging components or broken parts
Test lights, emergency exits, and fire safety devices
Review any incident logs and improve procedures as needed
Annual Inspection
Compliance and Preventive Upgrades
--------------占位---------------
A professional yearly inspection ensures your facility complies with ASTM F24, EN-1176, or local regulations, and spots risks you may overlook.
What to Include:
Hire certified safety inspectors to review all zones
Replace worn-out foam padding, trampoline springs, or zipline cables
Upgrade aging indoor playground components to newer, safer versions
Train new and existing staff on updated cleaning and safety protocols
