KAROLAM® - Special laminated wood from Kaiser & Kühne
KAROLAM® is a high-quality laminated robinia wood that was specially developed by Kaiser & Kühne and is used exclusively for swing posts and the posts in the RS range. It is characterised by its particular stability and weather resistance, making it ideal for load-bearing elements in playgrounds.
Properties of KAROLAM®
- Glued laminated wood: Consists of several robinia wood slats that are glued together under high pressure to ensure maximum stability.
- High resistance: Developed for extreme loads, especially due to the dynamic forces generated by swings.
- Dimensional stability: Minimises cracking and deformation, which increases the safety of the play equipment.
- Weatherproof & durable: Specially designed for outdoor use, withstands moisture, UV radiation and temperature fluctuations.
- Safety-optimised: Meets the highest safety requirements for load-bearing playground structures.
Why is KAROLAM® only used for special components?
-
High load capacity: Swings and posts in our RS range have to withstand great forces. KAROLAM® offers the necessary stability and breaking strength thanks to its layered structure.
-
Weather resistance: As these posts are often exposed to direct weathering, the special processing of KAROLAM® ensures a long service life.
-
Minimal cracking: While solid wood can crack or warp over time, KAROLAM® remains dimensionally stable - ideal for safety-relevant elements such as swing posts.
-
Durability & safety: High safety standards are required for swings and the load-bearing posts of the RS series in particular. KAROLAM® fulfils these requirements particularly well.
