Hygiene requirements in sandboxes

Playing in the sandbox is one of the most popular activities at playgrounds, helping to develop various skills:

Fine motor skills, creativity and imagination, problem-solving abilities, social skills, sensory perception, patience, and concentration.

Therefore, sandbox play is not only fun but also an important part of a child’s development. It is crucial to maintain the cleanliness of the sand. Our company offers special sandbox covers that meet hygiene requirements. We provide standard covers in sizes 2x2m and 3x3m, and we can also make custom sizes to fit your sandbox, as they come in many different shapes!

Here are some key hygiene benefits of using our cover:

Rainwater Cleaning: Rain helps wash away dust, microorganisms, and other contaminants from the sand. This natural cleaning method is especially effective if the sandbox is well-drained, allowing water to flow easily and preventing bacteria and mold growth.

Sunlight Exposure: Sunlight, particularly UV rays, acts as a natural disinfectant. UV rays can destroy many bacteria, viruses, and fungi present in the sand. The longer the sand is exposed to sunlight, the more effective the natural disinfection.

Good Air Circulation: An open cover that allows sunlight and airflow helps the sand dry well after rain, reducing microorganism spread.

Protection from Animals: The simplest and most effective way to keep animals out of the sandbox is to use our snug-fitting cover. It has elastic edges to fit tightly around the sandbox, preventing animals from getting inside. This is especially useful for keeping cats and small animals away.

Our cover with elastic edges is water and sun-resistant, breathable, flexible, and easy to put on and remove. It’s the most effective way to ensure hygiene in sandboxes!
