An ambitious new construction project in Birgden (municipality of Gangelt, district of Heinsberg) is creating more than just 200 new homes—it’s building a community. With a projected 14% population increase, the municipality recognised the need to attract young families, making a central children's playground a vital component of the design.
For this crucial task, Mayor Guido Willems chose Wickey PRO. Beyond the convenience of being locally based in Gangelt, Wickey PRO impressed with its excellent value and uncompromising focus on safety and barrier-free accessibility.
The result is Birgden’s first public playground featuring wooden play equipment. High-quality pieces like the PRO Magic Oasis, PRO Magic Skip, and colourful spring rockers create an inclusive environment for children of all ages and abilities. The accessible rest areas are a highlight, ensuring every child can participate.
“With Wickey's wooden equipment offering better grip and comfort compared to metal alternatives, we're seeing families enjoying their time here,” notes Mayor Guido Willems. ”Since its installation, the square has become a real attraction for the neighbourhood – a place where community spirit flourishes.”
