Gabrovo, Bulgaria
Discover Bulgaria's first playground featuring the Corkeen system in Gabrovo! ProjectsA new milestone for playgrounds has arrived in Bulgaria!
Located in the heart of Gabrovo, close to the city's historic library, this project marks the country's first outdoor area featuring the Corkeen system.
More than simply designing a new place for little ones to enjoy, our cork-based surface introduces an innovative approach that combines safety, sustainability, and thoughtful planning in a welcoming public setting.
Created for children and families to spend quality time together among Nature’s beauty and fresh air, this recreational space has become a vibrant community destination while enhancing the surrounding urban landscape.
Spanning 240 m², our one-of-a-kind system was installed by Infraconcept, our exclusive Brand Master for the Bulgarian market, bringing cork's remarkable qualities to this landmark project.
Chosen for its outstanding impact absorption, long-term durability, and environmentally responsible composition, Corkeen provides a soft, comfortable surface that complies with the highest safety standards, protecting kids from fall-related injuries.
Beyond technical performance, its natural appearance blends effortlessly with the playground's contemporary features, creating a cohesive environment where aesthetics and functionality come together seamlessly.
This installation also demonstrates how nature-inspired materials can help shape greener and more exciting leisure areas where kids feel free to run, jump, and explore, one adventure at a time.
