Importing play equipment?
Why not support local industry, and get your play equipment locally made.
Many people are buying imported "natural play equipment", and having trouble installing it, as
natural timber can be hard to work with - and must be put together the way it was intended by the
original builders and designers!
Getting your equipment locally made means you are not only supporting local businesses, but that
there will always be someone available to help you make sure the equipment is just right for you,
and fits your space perfectly.
Apart from everything else, shipping timber overseas can be extremely expensive.
Also... Australian timber is the best!!

Process - Building a beautiful timber creature
Why are our timber creatures so visually appealing?
What many people don't realise is that the team at Timber Creations spend a lot of time looking at timber.
... Well, that might seem obvious actually, but I mean before we even think about the building part!
The right piece for the right project can be hard to find. Amongst all the durable recycled timber we collect from discarded trees, each piece has a unique shape, pattern and texture.
The artists at Timber Creations consider these unique features of every piece, until the vision becomes clear.
This is what gives Timber Creations our unique aesthetic appeal -
a huge amount of time and effort goes into simply selecting the right piece of
timber, so that the final creation is a cohesive, stunningly original artwork.
Once the timber has been selected, the
artists take note of all the distinctive elements and imperfections that
make the timber perfect for the sculpture, and use them as features in the
work, to create an organic, natural and visually appealing piece that appeals
to our biological senses.
The result is an exquisitely unique creature, just brimming with
its own character - looking like it was biologically grown from a child's imagination!
You won't get that from a manufacturing assembly line!
