For the many playground operators and community playground managers that are planning for a reopening in the near future, the cleanliness and sanitation standards of their playgrounds will be an important area of discussion.

Parents and our community will ask and have the right to know on how we are managing the playgrounds in terms of cleanliness and sanitation. These processes are important in keeping our playground from being a hotspot for infectious diseases. Children’s health and as well as the overall health of the community is our focus while maintaining a family-friendly, sage environment and inclusive playground.

Below are the inventory essentials we will need going forward in keeping our playgrounds safe and healthy:

Commercial Grade Cleaning Supplies

These are chemical solutions that are soluble in liquid and is the first base of cleaning the surfaces and play equipment of the playground. A thorough wipe with a heavily-sanitized wiping rag and foams on surfaces will be effective in keeping the high-frequency contact of these surface areas.

Commercial Grade Disinfectant

These could come in the form of soluble liquid bases that are applied and wipe at the surface and areas of the playground fixtures – once the cleaning agents are applied. This is a double process that is proven to be effective in neutralizing bacteria on surfaces.

Disinfectant Spray

For commercial playgrounds found indoors, a disinfection spray can also neutralize potential infectious particles in the air. Air quality is also a factor for indoor playgrounds and a disinfectant spray with the recommended non-toxic formulation can also help disinfect playground equipments. For outdoor playgrounds like community playgrounds, disinfectant spray through fumigation can also neutralize bacteria and germs on playground surfaces.

Personnel Equipment

Be sure to equip our personnel with the recommended protective equipment such as:

• Face masks
• Face shields
• Personal Protective Equipment suit
• Hand gloves
• Alcohol and Soaps for hand sanitation

Hand-Washing Stations

Hand hygiene is now more important more than ever. Some playgrounds have installed hand-washing stations for parents and children. Other complementary offers that playgrounds can make available to everyone are hand sanitizer dispenses.
