December 5, 2025 — Outdoor equipment manufacturer Lappset launched its new flagship playground collection, Prime, in November. Prime playground collection is based on Lappset’s Playful nordisk design, which balances form, function and fun in novel ways. Blending tried-and-true Nordic design values with a sense of playfulness and wonder, the Rovaniemi-based family company has created a design language that makes Prime feel both grounded and uplifting at the same time.
What’s more, the collection brings inclusive user-experience to a new level entirely. Introducing a brand-new inclusivity ratings system — made in collaboration with the Finnish Paralympic Committee — Prime invites every child, of every ability, to move, discover and connect.
Lappset CEO Arto Lahtela said:
We feel very strongly that play belongs to all. True inclusion must begin with design. Through groundbreaking design, play can become truly limitless.
Prime playground collection also strengthens Lappset’s commitment to sustainability. The new flagship collection is produced with locally sourced, renewable Nordic pine as well as renewable electricity — and continues to rely on long-lasting designs in its effort to leave a lighter footprint for future generations. Each new Prime product comes with calculated and transparently available carbon footprint data that supports sustainable procurement and planning for cities, schools and construction partners.
Furthermore, a key part of Prime is the customization angle: the new collection is powered by Smart Modularity, which means, in essence, that tailored, cost-efficient designs can be provided for every playground, big or small. Structures can be customized for landscape architecture, urban development, themed environments and tailored outdoor solutions, from compact city sites to large community parks.
CEO Arto Lahtela added:
From inclusivity and design excellence to sustainability and modularity, we feel that we are making progress in many areas which are near and dear to us as a company. Prime is the culmination of a lot of hard work by our talented, passionate people, and we are very proud to present it to the world.
