SHERIDAN, WYOMING – October 30, 2025 – Vinci Play will showcase at FSB Cologne 2025 (Hall 09.1 | C059 A050) with two signals of scale: a fourth production facility bringing total development space to 35,000 m² and a new playground series positioned to elevate design, durability, and operational safety across municipal, education, and hospitality projects. For procurement teams, the expansion suggests greater delivery capacity, shorter lead times, and tighter quality control in a market where lifecycle costs and compliance are under scrutiny.
What’s new: added capacity and a refreshed product roadmap
The company now operates across four locations supported by a team of 500+ professionals, strengthening vertical integration from design to installation. The upcoming playground series targets aesthetics and play value while emphasizing durability—important for asset-intensive buyers seeking predictable total cost of ownership. With devices installed in 50+ countries and used by an estimated 80 million children, Vinci Play is clearly optimizing for repeatable, cross-border rollouts.
How the manufacturing footprint translates to buyer value
For city authorities, school districts, and private operators, distributed production and larger floorspace can mean more resilient supply, standardized components, and consistent QA processes. The firm highlights a long service horizon with an up-to-30-year guarantee on equipment—useful for capex planning and framework agreements that lock specification and pricing over multiple sites. Installation services complement the hardware, streamlining project delivery and post-handover support.
Market context: specification pressure and inclusive design
Public-sector tenders increasingly prioritize robust materials, anti-vandal features, inclusive play elements, and clear documentation of testing and maintenance regimes. Operators are also weighing climate durability—UV exposure, temperature swings, and corrosion resistance—alongside serviceability and parts availability. Against that backdrop, suppliers with scale and configurable product families are positioned to support multi-park programs while reducing per-site engineering effort.

“We’re proud to announce the opening of our fourth production facility - marking an exciting milestone in our growth and innovation journey!”
Procurement checklist: what to verify at FSB Cologne
- Component standardization: Confirm fastener types, surface finishes, and spares strategy across SKUs to simplify maintenance.
- Documentation depth: Request installation, inspection, and preventative maintenance schedules aligned to your operating model.
- Warranty scope: Map the “30-year guarantee” terms to structural, surface, and moving parts; clarify exclusions and claim workflows.
- Installation options: Validate on-site capabilities, subcontractor management, and handover checklists to reduce rework.
- Lifecycle economics: Compare expected repaint/refinish intervals and availability of refurbishment kits to extend asset life.
Strategic implications for public and private operators
Scaled manufacturing, combined with an expanding design catalog, gives specifiers more latitude to standardize across neighborhoods or campuses without sacrificing aesthetic variety. For private venues—hospitality, retail, and mixed-use—shorter lead times and modularity can minimize downtime and accelerate ROI. Teams building multi-year portfolios should evaluate Vinci Play alongside peer manufacturers on lifecycle metrics, not just upfront pricing—see our playground infrastructure analysis for comparative frameworks and scoring rubrics.
