This extraordinary project showcases how innovative design meets childhood imagination, creating an underwater adventure that has transformed this community space into a premier destination for families across Australia.
The Vision: Bringing Ocean Magic to Land
When designing the Mary Carroll Park installation, our team from leading playground suppliers Australia envisioned more than just a play area - we aimed to create an immersive marine world. The lobster-themed playground equipment was chosen for its unique ability to spark children's imagination while providing comprehensive developmental benefits.

Premium Materials Built for Australian Conditions
The Mary Carroll Park lobster playground equipment incorporates Cemer's advanced material technology, specifically designed to withstand Australia's harsh climate conditions:
Sphere Connections
Single-casing aluminum cast spheres with anticorrosion treatment are strategically placed at junctions. These spheres are designed with integrated technology for connecting pipes, ensuring structural integrity and longevity.
3-Layer Coating System
The metal components feature ST 37 steel with a comprehensive 3-stage coating process:
- Sandblasting and primer application
- Solvent-free anti-corrosive primer
- Electrostatic powder coating
This advanced coating system provides exceptional corrosion resistance under extreme weather conditions and UV exposure - essential for Australia's intense sun and coastal environments.
CMRRope Technology
The climbing elements utilize CMRRope™, formed by 6 strands of galvanized wires with either steel or fiber core. Each strand is tightly braided with polyester, adhered to galvanized wires with a patented method creating a solid surface where polyester meets wires. This provides:
- Extra protection against friction and vandalism
- Extreme abrasion and UV resistance
- Fire retardant properties
Aluminum Cast Connectors
Single-casing aluminum cast connectors are compressed with 300 tons to avoid premature wear. These connectors feature no sharp angles or edges and are fastened to the main frame with specialized clamps.
Developmental Benefits: Learning Through Marine Adventure
The Mary Carroll Park lobster playground equipment serves as more than entertainment - it's a comprehensive developmental tool:
Physical Development
- Hemparope Activities: Improve children's balance and coordination skills by taking careful steps to maintain balance. Children strengthen their motor skills and gain self-confidence while enjoying the play area.
- Climbing Elements: Increase physical endurance while improving motor skills and aiding hand-eye coordination. The safe height experience offers opportunities for exploration, creativity, and socialization.
- Slide Components: Boost balance, muscle development, and physical activity. The sliding experience enhances empathy, provides safe thrills, builds courage, improves speed perception, and supports coordination skills.
Cognitive Development
