At UniPlay, we believe that playgrounds should be vibrant, dynamic, and educational spaces where children can play, learn, and grow. Our passion lies in transforming everyday play areas into engaging and purposeful environments through our bespoke thermoplastic playground markings.
One of the most popular and versatile options we offer is playground road markings, which add an exciting dimension to play while subtly teaching children vital road safety skills.
Playground road markings simulate real-life road scenarios on a smaller, safer scale, introducing children to fundamental concepts of traffic safety in a fun and controlled environment. These markings can range from simple roads and intersections to complex networks complete with roundabouts, zebra crossings, and traffic signals. By mimicking real-world roads, children get to play the roles of pedestrians, cyclists, or drivers, promoting imaginative play while enhancing their awareness of road safety rules.
The appeal of playground road markings goes beyond the fun factor. They serve as valuable educational tools, allowing children to learn about navigation, turn-taking, and cooperation. Skills such as following directions, recognizing signs, and understanding the rules of the road can all be fostered through play, making these markings both entertaining and educational.
When it comes to creating durable, vibrant playground road markings, thermoplastic is our material of choice.
Thermoplastic playground markings are known for their durability, colour vibrancy, and environmental resistance. Unlike paint, which can fade and wear away quickly under frequent use and exposure to the elements, thermoplastic markings are highly durable and can last several years without fading or cracking. This longevity means that schools and play areas get a better return on investment, with minimal need for maintenance or replacement.
Thermoplastic also has the benefit of quick application, reducing downtime for playgrounds. It dries quickly and can be installed in a variety of designs, allowing for quick turnaround times on even complex markings. Its skid-resistant surface further enhances safety, which is essential in environments where children are constantly running, jumping, and riding bikes or scooters.
Every playground is unique, which is why we offer fully customisable thermoplastic designs. Our team works closely with schools, councils, and community centres to create designs that meet the specific needs of each play area. From simple circuits to more elaborate traffic layouts, we can incorporate elements like mini stop signs, traffic lights, and pedestrian crossings to enhance the educational value of the markings.
Our customisable options also mean we can create additional learning opportunities, incorporating alphabets, numbers, or other educational elements into the road designs, reinforcing learning through play.
At UniPlay, we take pride in seeing the positive impact our playground markings have on children’s learning and development. Playground road markings offer endless opportunities for imaginative play, social interaction, and learning, making them a valuable addition to any school or community play space. Our thermoplastic markings ensure that these benefits last, providing a safe, visually appealing, and durable solution for playgrounds of all sizes.
