Creating a secure soft play environment begins with in-depth training that reflects the best practices outlined by respected authorities. Although basic safety measures are often in place, they must be evaluated against regulatory bodies such as ASTM, CPSC, and CPSIA. Aligning your training with regulatory benchmarks reduces liability, builds brand credibility, and ensures ethical operation.
Key Elements of Standard-Compliant Soft Play Safety
A proper safety strategy starts with evaluating risks and removing hazards before kids enter the play area. Operators must check surfaces, padding, and equipment installation as part of their pre-play inspection routines.Organized Setup and Disassembly for Safer Play Spaces
