About Us
Martell Play and Lesiure is a subsidiary company to Martell Timber Ltd. Our main speciality is to provide a safe and fun environment for children to play. With our extensive range of playground equipment we can cater for every need. To date we have installed our range at many schools and these can be viewed at our online gallery.
The popularity of timber play equipment has dramatically increased due mainly to it’s visually appealing nature and the way in which it blends naturally with the environment, wherever it may be located.
Unlike many traditionally installed steel structures, timber is natural, appealing to the senses of smell and touch to adults and children alike.
The timbers used by Martell Play and Leisure are specifically selected to the highest quality standards, mostly Scandinavian 5th Kiln Dried Redwood, which is heart free, hence significantly reducing the risk of shaking (splitting and poor finish quality following machining).
During the machining process, the timber is planed all round and a radius is put on all edges providing an enhanced finish which is smooth to the touch, hence reducing the risks and hazards associated with splinters
The timbers are then pressure treated with Tanalith E*, a chrome and arsenic free timber preservative which is the latest in timber treatment technology, providing a desired service life of 15 – 30 years.
Main Timber Features
- Chrome and arsenic free
- Protects against fungal decay and insect / termite infestation
- When impregnated into the timber, the chemical components become fixed within the wood structure and are therefore leach resistant
- Tanalith E* is specified for use in Leisure and ground contact timbers
- Treated timbers have an even green colouration
- All treated timbers are Maintenance Free
* Tanalith E conforms to the efficacy requirements of EN 599-1:1997, and is treated in accordance with the penetration and retention guidance given in BS EN 335-1:1996. To provide a desired service life in the selected hazard class as defined in BS EN 335-1:1992 .. next
