QUALITY & INDEPENDENT TESTING

At Funky Monkey Bars® we take the quality of our designs and safety very seriously. All Funky Monkey Bars® frames 

go through a stringent, independent structural testing process prior to being made available for release to our 

customers.

Our frames are designed within the parameters of the Australian Standard for Playground Equipment AS4685.1:2014.

The structural integrity of our frames has been tested for performance through a combination of engineering 

calculations and physical testing.  The tests have been performed by independent, certified structural engineers in 

accordance with Australian Standard for Playground Equipment AS4685.1:2014 and European Standards 

EN1176-1:2008.

The independent testing conducted on The Tamarin certified the frame to a load rating of 900kgs or 15 users.
