NORDIC ROOTS – A Viking-Style Gaming World

What happens when you combine Nordic closeness to nature and natural materials, simplicity and clean design, with children’s thirst for adventure? Something more than just a playground is born — the Nordic Roots series is born.

Inspired by nature, made for exploration

The Nordic Roots series draws inspiration from the Nordic wilderness and the fearless wandering spirit of the Vikings. This is a world where children are not merely players — they are explorers. Every movement is a small adventure, and every step carries them further.

The Nordic design principle — less visual noise, more substance.

Materials that create a sense of security and lasting durability

The Nordic Roots collection stands out not only for its quality and strength — it stands out for the way it feels. The collection is built on materials chosen not for the sake of fashion, but for durability and healthiness.

Nordic pine is warm, natural and enduring over time. The posts undergo anti-mould treatment and are coated with two layers of high-quality UV-resistant and weather-resistant exterior paint — the best wood protection technology available. The result is wooden surfaces that retain their appearance and durability even years down the line.

Hot galvanised and powder coated square tubes will not rust even after ten or more years — a guarantee that most playground manufacturers cannot offer. Wall elements, roofs and details are made from UV- and weather-resistant HDPE material, of which at least 90% is recycled raw material. Nordic Roots playgrounds are an environmentally conscious choice.

The result is solutions that blend into the surrounding environment rather than dominating it.

Sustainability is not an add-on — it is the foundation of everything

Tiptiptap has aligned its production with the United Nations Sustainable Development (ESG) goals. The Nordic Roots collection embodies this mindset in concrete terms: natural materials, timeless design and a long lifespan mean that an investment in a playground or play complex is not merely short-term — it is built to last for years.

Every year, Tiptiptap channels thousands of tonnes of plastic back into circulation. Nordic Roots is the natural continuation of this way of thinking.

Play designed for development

All Nordic Roots elements are created with purpose:

• to develop strength and endurance
• to improve coordination
• to encourage balance
• to support concentration and the nervous system

This is not simply movement — it is a consciously designed development environment that offers joy and challenge.

Who is the Nordic Roots collection suited for?

Nordic Roots is particularly well suited to outdoor areas where a nature-inspired and calm solution is desired — one that requires no constant maintenance or refreshing.

• Kindergartens — especially for older groups seeking more of a challenge
• Schools — from primary school age through to teenagers
• Public parks and play areas
• Residential areas and property developments where visual quality is a top priority

International recognition — the feedback spoke for itself

The Nordic Roots collection made its international debut at the FSB 2025 trade fair in Cologne, where partners and distributors from around the world gathered. The feedback was unambiguous: the collection offers something the market has been missing — a calm Nordic sensibility that is at once playfully exciting and visually clean in its design.
