Portland, Oregon Opens A Spacious New Park That Is Accessible For All

sofSURFACES Inc. as Manufacturer of duraSAFE Rubber Playground Tiles

Featuring a number of unique play devices, this park removes barriers to all who want to play! Many of the play areas include structures that can be enjoyed by not only children with differing abilities and those with assistive devices, but also by family and friends that are with them to provide care.

Some of the park's special features include an in ground trampoline and an inclusive spinner that users can wheel or walk onto. Adaptive swings for individuals and groups are also available for children of all ages and abilities. Perhaps the best feature of all though, are the accessibile routes that lead to all of the play areas.

Gabriel Park is now the perfect place for children to make friends and explore their abilities while playing safely. sofSURFACES continues to provide parents and playground operators all over the world with the peace of mind and comfort in knowing that while their children are on the playground, duraSAFE® Rubber Playground Tiles are there to catch their fall.

For over three decades, sofSURFACES has been innovating and advocating for higher-performing safety surfacing systems that require little to no maintenance. When minor damage or vandalism occurs, our tiles are quickly and easily replaced while larger issues are covered by our best-in-industry limited lifetime warranty – which includes fall height protection!
