When purchasing a new trampoline, durability should be at the top of your priority list, as it ensures you can use the trampoline for a long time. Discover why Akrobat trampolines are the best choice in this regard.

 

 

Jumping on trampolines has long been a popular way for families and other trampoline enthusiasts to spend their leisure time. As a result, the range of trampolines on the market is vast, but not all of them guarantee the same lifespan.

Many factors affect how long a trampoline will last, and Akrobat trampolines stand out significantly in this area. Discover why they successfully stand the test of time.

Akrobat trampolines’ frame is made from durable galvanized steel

It is worth noting that Akrobat is the only company on the market that offers a lifetime warranty on the trampoline frame. There are several good reasons for this:

  • The frame of Akrobat trampolines is made from extremely durable tubes crafted from hot-dip galvanized steel with at least 275 g/m² zinc coating. The steel used fully complies with the European standard EN10305-3, which precisely defines the carbon content in the tubes, resulting in greater strength and durability of the frame.
  • Akrobat adheres to strict regulations and precise quality standards when designing the tubes, ensuring minimal deviations in thickness and quality.
  • The frame tubes are also powder-coated, making them resistant to corrosion and rust while providing the best protection against UV rays and mechanical damage.

 

The jumping mat of Akrobat trampolines

The jumping mat of Akrobat trampolines is unique in both the design and materials used. Both factors contribute significantly to Akrobat trampolines successfully standing the test of time:

  • The jumping mat is made from high-quality, certified materials that are UV resistant from -40 to +40°C and waterproof. Therefore, it withstands all weather conditions excellently and is practically indestructible.
  • The jumping mat is woven from PES material, and 8-line stitching is used to attach it to the springs. This contributes to better shock absorption while providing maximum tear resistance.

Before Acrobat’s jumping mats are released to the market, they are also laboratory tested. This ensures a top-quality product, meaning you will use Akrobat trampolines for a longer time.

Akrobat springs are rust and weather-resistant

Trampoline springs stretch and contract during jumping. If they are made from lower-quality materials, the springs will rust faster, squeak, and eventually break.

Akrobat uses 3.2 mm galvanized wire to make springs for all its trampolines, which is currently the highest possible quality material on the market. Their springs are practically indestructible and are the result of their in-house development and production, which is why the company provides a 10-year warranty or 2.5 million worry-free jumps.

Protective net and padding resistant to UV rays and tearing

Akrobat trampolines are designed to last as long as possible. Therefore, the company has also paid a lot of attention to the protective net and padding, which ensure the trampolines have a long lifespan even under the most demanding weather conditions.

All materials used for the protective net and padding are waterproof and provide UV resistance from -40 to +40°C. Akrobat protective pads are made from extremely durable PVC material, which easily withstands high temperatures, rain, and snow, while the protective net is densely woven and does not tear easily.

Akrobat uses only high-quality and certified materials for trampoline production

Akrobat is one of the biggest advocates for reducing waste. Therefore, their trampolines are made exclusively from high-quality and certified materials that meet strict technical and ecological standards.

All Akrobat trampolines are the result of in-house production, and the materials used are exclusively of European origin. This means their trampolines are also subject to the stringent REACH regulation, ensuring that all materials used are genuinely certified, traceable, and safe for human health.

Akrobat trampolines have a unique design

It is common for trampolines to get damaged at joints where there are many nuts and bolts. Akrobat has avoided this with a unique design and innovative AkroCLICK® system.

AkroCLICK® is a completely innovative system for assembling the trampoline frame without any tools. This means that the frame parts are connected solely through the AkroCLICK® system, without any nuts and bolts. This minimizes the likelihood of Akrobat trampolines becoming loose or damaged over time.

 

Akrobat complies with strict technical regulations in trampoline production

Throughout the design and production of trampolines, Akrobat always adheres to strict technical regulations. Before Akrobat trampolines reach users, they must pass numerous tests to meet the strictest quality standards:

  • SIST EN 1176-1, which sets general safety requirements for permanently installed public playground equipment and surfacing;
  • SIST EN 913, which sets general safety requirements and test methods for all gymnastic and sports equipment parts intended for physical education, training, and competitions;
  • SIST EN 13219, which, in addition to the general requirements in EN 913, sets functional requirements for specific types of trampolines and special safety requirements that trampolines must meet;
  • SIST EN 71-14, which requires all materials to be tested for UV resistance.

 

Akrobat trampolines successfully stand the test of time due to their unique design and are made from high-quality, certified European materials that are resistant to the harshest weather conditions and mechanical damage. To ensure they truly last for a long time, remember to use and maintain them properly.
