Playground Professionals for Personal Partnerships
SafetyFirst Playground Maintenance’s story begins in 2008 at the heart of Minnesota’s forest product. With extensive knowledge in forest products, our founder saw an opportunity to create surfacing that would naturally withstand harsh conditions and ensure safe playgrounds for schools and parks. The first-of-its-kind surfacing would later be known as Nature’sPlus, our engineered wood fiber.
After delivering numerous truckloads of Nature’sPlus across the Midwest, we noticed how much the parks and schools cared about their playgrounds but didn’t have the time and resources to maintain them. So, we started offering playground services to further help our clients. Almost 15 years later, we are a full-service playground maintenance company, and our clients first call for all their playground needs.
At SatetyFirst Playground Maintenance, we are a family-owned, commercial playground company serving school districts, parks and municipalities, and architects and engineers. Located in Minnesota, we offer services across the Midwest, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Iowa, and provide playground repair parts nationwide.
Why Partner with a Playground Maintenance Company
As a playground maintenance company, we are service-focused. Since we are not a playground equipment manufacturer, our motivation isn’t backed by the desire to sell equipment. Our goal, since the beginning, is to help parks and schools provide safe playgrounds for children and students while relieving the weight of your playground maintenance. We care about your playgrounds because we are committed to our clients as your long-term, reliable partner.
