Retro-Max donates a nature-inspired playground to the community

In a heartwarming gesture, Retro-Max has recently donated a nature-inspired playground to the vibrant community of Hougang Avenue 6, marking a pioneering move as the first supplier to donate a playground to a Town Council in Singapore.

With over 25 years in the playground business, Retro-Max, in collaboration with Landscape Structures, has been creating engaging and enjoyable play spaces in Singapore, prioritizing inclusivity and safety.

This year, Retro-Max proudly donated a playground to the Aljunied-Hougang Town Council (AHTC) as part of our commitment to corporate social responsibility and underscores Retro-Max's dedication to uplifting communities and fostering a sense of togetherness.

The nature-inspired playground

This unique nature-inspired playground design reflects Retro-Max’s commitment to creating immersive environments that spark creativity and connection. The structure is designed to look like a tree house supported by a tree trunk that is made with Glass-Fibre Reinforced Concrete, and has been hand-crafted to look and feel realistic. Other GFRC components that add a realistic flare to the nature-inspired playground include Log Steppers and 3D animal sculptures dispersed around the site. 

The playground, nestled in the heart of Hougang Avenue 6, aims to enhance the surrounding area and provide a space where families can immerse themselves in nature despite the urban setting. It embodies Retro-Max's dedication to blending playfulness with purpose. As a playground supplier with a quarter-century experience, we believe every child deserves a safe and vibrant space to explore, learn, and grow.

On 30 December 2023, residents of Hougang Avenue 6 gathered at the playground officially open and celebrate the new playground with Retro-Max and Mr. Gerald Giam, the MP for Aljunied GRC Bedok Reservoir - Punggol Division and Vice Chairman of the AHTC.
