Our History

More than a manufacturer, your strategic business partner

Choosing the right leisure park manufacturer is the most important decision in your business plan. Play In Business shares its invaluable field expertise with you. We know that a park must be as attractive to children as it is to parents, and of course, as profitable as possible for the investor.

Even before the first structure is placed, our team is at your disposal. You are advised on the layout of the building, taking into account your vision and our experience of what your activity will be when your park opens. You can even benefit from support in drawing up detailed plans. The objective is to make every square meter profitable while optimizing operations: how to manage flows? where to place birthday rooms? how to facilitate supervision or organize workstations during peak days? Every question finds its answer.

As a manufacturer of modern leisure parks, innovation is at the center of our structures: interactive games, LED slides, original activities, virtual reality… The decor and theming of the games are also essential to create a warm and original atmosphere: together we create universes that encourage your visitors to return.

Safety, standards, and quality among the highest standards

In indoor leisure, user safety is paramount. Play In Business places compliance with European standards at the heart of its engineering. The most recent international standards are followed to the letter.

For playgrounds, we comply with the requirements of EN 1176 standards. Each leisure park is certified by the Swiss laboratory SGS, the world leader in inspection and certification.

For trampoline parks, the ISO 23659 standard (2023 version) is our reference. This is the essential prerequisite for offering a quality experience and building family loyalty with complete confidence; installations are verified and validated by an independent laboratory.

Furthermore, Play In Business is a member of European standardization commissions and participates in work on the evolution of standards to always remain at the forefront of safety.

Safety also depends on people, which is why we offer training dedicated to managers and your teams: leisure park management, trampoline park supervision, equipment maintenance. With Play In Business, you open your complex with the knowledge of an experienced professional.

Providing you with the highest quality materials possible is also our priority. The vinyls used are the thickest on the market, the foams are high density, the punching bags are reinforced, the trampoline mats withstand more than 200 kg… We know that play equipment is put to the test by users, which is why we select the best materials and the strongest elements to ensure the longest lifespan and easy maintenance.

We can also integrate your characters or your logo into the decors and on trampoline covers.

A multi-activity offer for all ages

We offer maintenance contracts to check the wear of parts (springs, nets, foams) and extend the life of your leisure equipment.

Our latest projects

Coco City St Avold

Located within the large Coco Park complex in Saint-Avold, the Coco City area offers a unique play experience, entirely dedicated to role-play games. A true small-scale city for children, this space allows them to unleash their imagination by recreating the adult world in a 100% safe environment.

For this specific project, Play In Business designed and manufactured a custom themed village, including:

Scripted occupation modules: Creation of small infrastructures representing everyday life locations (mini-supermarket, fire station, garage, hospital, etc.) for ultra-realistic role-playing games.
Immersive settings: Meticulous work on theming, colors, and visual details of each cabin to stimulate awareness and interactivity.
Adapted and secure design: Soft and robust materials designed for intensive use by young children, ensuring optimal safety during play sessions.

The creation of this “Role Play Village” perfectly illustrates the versatility of our design office, capable of creating educational and interactive environments that enhance the overall offering of a leisure park!

Chibitopia – Lingolsheim

Chibitopia: The perfect blend of an immersive mini role-play town and a giant play area

Located in Lingolsheim, near Strasbourg, Chibitopia is revolutionizing indoor leisure across 1,000 m². Play In Business designed a unique hybrid space: a miniature town dedicated to role-play, paired with an 8-metre-high tubular play structure.

An innovative concept focused on role-play

Chibitopia is not an ordinary play park. Here, the focus is on role-play and playful learning for children aged 0 to 10. We designed a real child-sized town featuring 6 full-scale immersive settings (hospital, garage, restaurant, supermarket, construction site, etc.). In these ultra-detailed spaces, children invent their own lives, and parents are invited to take an active part by playing customers or patients.

The Fire Station: A 3-level structure

To let off steam after role-play, the park’s central attraction is a gigantic tubular structure themed around a Fire Station. Play In Business made the most of the building’s volume by installing a 3-level module rising to 8 metres high. Slides, obstacle mazes and a huge ball pit allow children to assess risks and have fun in complete safety.

Exclusive areas: Snoezelen Room and The Bank

The customer experience is refined down to the smallest details. For toddlers, in addition to the classic motor-skills area, we created a dedicated “Snoezelen” room (Zen room) with soft lighting and varied textures for sensory development. For birthdays, the theming is total: the birthday child becomes the hero by entering “The Bank” vault room to discover a surprise adventure.

Airjump METZ

Discover Airjump Metz, a spectacular indoor leisure venue designed, manufactured, and installed by Play In Business. For this ambitious project, our design office optimized every square meter of the building to create an ultra-attractive, highly secure jumping area. This complex includes the best activities on the market to ensure maximum attendance: main jumping arena (Main Court), Dodgeball zones, foam pits, and sports courses. A turnkey project, combining custom design, strict compliance with ERP standards, and optimal profitability for our client.

Espark Ancenis

Play In Business is proud to have participated in the development of the impressive Espark 23 indoor leisure complex, located in Ancenis-Saint-Géréon. A true entertainment destination for the whole family, this center brings together a multitude of activities for all ages.

We put our expertise at the service of this ambitious project by designing and installing two major spaces:

– A dynamic Trampoline Park: A vast jumping area (Main Court) incorporating sports and recreational modules, perfectly suited for free jump, “Jump Party” events, and physical courses.

– A secure Kids Park: A large custom tubular play area (obstacle courses, slides, ball pits) designed for the development and entertainment of younger children.

A development that perfectly illustrates our ability to equip large multi-leisure complexes with robust, aesthetic, and 100% secure structures!

Fun Space Sens

Heading to Yonne to discover the incredible Fun Space complex in Sens! This vast indoor multi-activity leisure park was designed and installed by Play In Business. Our clients’ objective was clear: to create a true temple of family entertainment, capable of appealing to all age groups within a single space, from toddlers to teenagers and adults seeking thrills.

To meet this challenge, our design office created several distinct areas to optimize the building’s immense floor space. We installed a large, custom-made tubular playground for children, featuring multiple courses and slides. For the more athletic, the park includes a superb Trampoline Park arena, a challenging Ninja course to test agility, and a fun climbing area (Fun Climb). A comprehensive, custom-made project, perfect for offering a variety of activities and attracting a very wide audience!

Tortuga Island Lille

All aboard! Located in the heart of the famous B’Twin Village in Lille, Tortuga Island is a monumental 2,000 m² indoor leisure park that perfectly illustrates Play In Business’s comprehensive expertise. Designed to inspire children aged 0 to 12, this complex is a masterclass in theming: all the sets and structures immerse visitors in the fascinating world of piracy and treasure hunts.

To maximize this vast space, our design office thought big. The central tubular structure, immense and multicolored, is packed with activities: giant slides, suspended rope bridges, trampolines and vast ball pits. The centerpiece of this project remains the spectacular “Volcano” to climb, a custom premium module that offers an exciting physical challenge to budding adventurers. Combining absolute safety, total immersion and XXL capacity, Tortuga Island is a true gem of family entertainment in Hauts-de-France!

About us Success stories and testimonials

Play In Business: Our success story, a leisure park creator like no other

Dive into our world with an exclusive interview with Bertrand Coulomb, the founder of Play In Business.

For over 30 years, Bertrand Coulomb has been working in the leisure industry. Since his beginnings at Big Bang Schtroumpf park (now Walygator Grand Est), he has remained in the amusement park sector, becoming a major player in the construction of leisure complexes through his company Play In Business. With one guiding principle: the constant pursuit of excellence.

Discover this interview here:

Can you tell us the story of Play In Business?

Bertrand Coulomb: Play In Business was founded in 2013 in Luxembourg, a country located in the heart of Western Europe, with excellent connections between capital cities. This company is the culmination of many years as a partner to European manufacturers. After collaborating with the largest manufacturers, installing hundreds of equipment pieces, regularly discussing with operators, and participating in the development of safety standards, I wanted to propose new ideas, greater theme and provide more efficient service to our clients.

We established partnerships with suppliers selected for the quality of their products, their service, their innovation, and their originality. We thus became manufacturers of our own play equipment.

What were the key stages in the growth and success over the years?

Bertrand Coulomb: One of the crucial stages was to stop being resellers and become manufacturers of play areas, enabling us to respond more effectively to our clients. We finally design the play equipment we want, with high-quality materials and advanced theming.

Then the evolution toward multi-activity allowed Play In Business to offer equipment beyond play areas, such as the trampoline parks that we also manufacture.

Aminata Ndao played a crucial role in this development. Coming from the French subsidiary Ludo et Cie, she was an enormous boost for Play In Business thanks to her responsiveness and extraordinary work capacity. She became the partner I had been waiting for.

What elements have contributed to making Play In Business a leader in the construction of indoor play areas and trampoline parks?

Bertrand Coulomb: I think our clients first appreciate the relationship we create with them. We share our experiences, listen to their expectations, spend time finding the perfectly adapted solution for the project, visit parks we have built together, and draw detailed 3D designs of the project to ensure perfect understanding.

Then, the quality-price ratio of our trampoline parks and our indoor play areas completes the convincing of our clients.

Of course, having operated a park for several years and participated in the development of safety standards also reinforces our credibility, and we maintain contact with our clients after their opening.

Could you share an example of an iconic project that has marked the history of Play In Business?

Bertrand Coulomb: Cosmic Jump is a striking example. It was our first large trampoline park (1,200 m2 of play equipment), installed in early 2018, with significant technical constraints and many activities such as dodge ball, half pipe, foam pit, and ninja course. The park was a success, and we then installed one of the largest modular play structures in France in the adjacent building for the same client!

Can you tell us about the innovations or new trends that Play In Business has introduced this year in its indoor play areas and trampoline parks?

Bertrand Coulomb: The arrival of the ISO EN23659 standard this year shook up the trampoline park industry somewhat, but it accelerated the professionalization of the sector. We place great importance on compliance with European standards, and we support operators to ensure optimal safety for jumper visitors and their own peace of mind.

Interactive games have also taken a prominent place at the expense of the free jump zone. Interactivity has truly become a must-have in trampoline parks, and Play In Business integrates several games into each project, such as Cardio Wall, Valo Jump, Freedom Gaming… Modular play structures are not left behind with interactive screens or the Talking Bag!

What are the upcoming projects for Play In Business for next year?

Bertrand Coulomb: We have developed a new range of pretend play equipment. With these games making a strong comeback in playgrounds, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity. In addition to our initial range of small play structures covering 2–3 m², we now offer role-play areas spanning 20–30 m² with plenty of interactive features. The first park to feature this range was Chibiotopia near Strasbourg, which has proved a huge success, and the brand is now expanding under licence.

We’ll be attending IAAPA in London in September 2026 – the attractions industry’s largest trade fair – to showcase this new range. This time, it’ll be the visitors who get to play like children!

As for our upcoming installations for 2027, our schedule is already packed. Stay tuned—we will discuss them soon.

In summary, how would you describe the results of the current year for Play In Business in terms of success, achievements, and future prospects?

Bertrand Coulomb: Despite challenges related to client financing, I consider that we have had an excellent year. Our clients are satisfied, the image of Play In Business is very strong, and our quality-price ratio remains excellent. We thank our clients for their trust and collaboration, and we remain available for future projects and park upgrades.

Safety and standards Trampoline park

Les normes ont-elles un intérêt ?

Les normes ont-elles vraiment un intérêt ?

Les normes ont mauvaise presse : dans l’agriculture, l’industrie, le commerce, les syndicats se plaignent des règles trop exigeantes, trop nombreuses et parfois contradictoires. Même le gouvernement français déplore la complexité de la réglementation : « trop de normes tue la croissance » a déclaré le Ministre de l’Economie français Bruno Le Maire en avril 2024. Une simplication est en marche…

Les mêmes remarques sont valables dans les autres pays européens et au Royaume Uni, qui déjà en 2010 supprimait deux normes pour en créer une nouvelle en instaurant le « one in, two out », et même « one in, three out » en 2015.

Les normes: néfastes ou bénéfiques pour le business?

Alors les normes sont-elles néfastes pour le business ? Bien au contraire !

Dans le cadre des activités de loisirs, elles ont permis de faire chuter le nombre d’accidents graves, de sécuriser les équipements, d’organiser la supervision, la gestion de flux, les contrôles et la maintenance, de limiter les risques pour les joueurs aussi bien que pour les exploitants.

La France a été précurseur dans la réglementation pour les aires de jeux collectives avec la première norme arrivant en 1988 (norme S54-201), puis avec un décret en 1994 (n°94-699 du 10 août 1994). Les exploitants ayant l’obligation de se mettre en conformité avec des normes, le nombre d’accidents graves a fortement baissé et les décès dus aux équipements a disparu.

A l’arrivée des parcs de trampolines en Europe au début des années 2010, il n’existait aucune réglementation. La norme des trampolines sportifs n’était pas applicable, comme celles des aires de jeux. Il n’existait en France que l’obligation générale de sécurité : « Les produits et les services doivent présenter, dans des conditions normales d’utilisation ou dans d’autres conditions raisonnablement prévisibles par le professionnel, la sécurité à laquelle on peut légitimement s’attendre et ne pas porter atteinte à la santé des personnes ». Mais comment savoir quoi faire dans une activité nouvelle et comment prouver qu’on présente une « sécurité légitime » ?

Conséquences de l’absence de normes

C’est ainsi que l’on a vu des parcs de trampolines ouvrir avec des trampolines de performance sans aucune surveillance, et un nombre d’accidents augmenter parallèlement aux nombre de nouveaux parcs ouverts. Un parc dans l’Est de la France détenait le record d’accidents graves (nécessitant l’arrivée des pompiers) : peu de personnel, aucune supervision, les enfants laissés seuls sur les trampolines… Les pompiers effectuaient plus de 18 interventions par semaine en moyenne ! La DDPP (Direction Départementales de la Protection des Populations) n’avait aucun moyen de fermer ce parc car il n’existait pas de base légale. Après quelques mois d’exploitation, la majorité des familles de la région avaient eu son propre enfant ou celui d’un proche qui avait été blessé pendant une séance dans le parc de trampolines. Le marché était sinistré.

Résultat, le nouveau parc de trampolines qui s’est ouvert dans la même agglomération quelques mois plus tard, avec une véritable supervision et une politique sécuritaire adaptée, a mis plusieurs années à convaincre les familles de venir dans son parc et à équilibrer ses comptes.

Ainsi, l’arrivée des normes expérimentales françaises dans un premier temps (XP S52-370), puis européennes ensuite (ISO EN 23659) a permis de réguler l’activité et de faire baisser drastiquement le nombre d’accidents. Le marché se développe ainsi normalement, et la DDPP a désormais les moyens de contrôler les parcs, et éventuellement de faire fermer les exploitations dangereuses qui nuisent autant aux joueurs qu’au secteur toute entier.

Donc oui, les normes sont essentielles pour réguler une activité. Elles sont nécessaires d’une part pour déterminer le niveau de sécurité minimale ou optimale nécessaire pour assurer la sécurité des utilisateurs. Elles permettent à l’exploitant de choisir les activités en fonction des risques encourus et des obligations qui en découlent. Par exemple, les parcours acrobatiques en hauteur avec une ligne de vie continue nécessitent moins de personnel d’exploitation, les joueurs étant toujours attachés.

Les normes permettent également de mettre en conformité les équipements, de rehausser leur niveau de sécurité, de protéger les utilisateurs mais également les exploitants en cas d’accident. En effet, l’exploitant ayant des équipements conformes aux normes pourra démontrer qu’il a mis en place « la sécurité à laquelle on peut légitimement s’attendre » et pourra dégager sa responsabilité.

Conseils pour les exploitants

Nous ne pouvons que fortement conseiller à tous les porteurs de projets et tous les exploitants de parcs de loisirs de suivre de près la réglementation et de se conformer le plus possible aux normes en vigueur.

En tant qu’expert intervenant dans différents comités de normalisation, Play In Business vous conseille sur le choix des équipements, les exigences de sécurité, les obligations de supervision, l’entretien et la maintenance à prévoir… afin que vous puissiez faire le choix le mieux adapté à votre exploitation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What budget is required to open a profitable indoor leisure park?

It is very difficult to determine the investment required for an indoor leisure park without knowing the type of activity(ies) you want, the surface area, the condition of the building, or the chosen theming.
If the playground complements an existing activity (for example, a restaurant, a hotel, or a campsite), you can integrate an attractive and secure tubular structure for a budget ranging from a few hundred euros to a few thousand euros.

On the other hand, if your goal is to open a true indoor leisure complex (main playground or trampoline park), the situation changes. Our experience as a leisure park manufacturer shows that investment budgets are increasingly high.

The leisure market today is dynamic and competitive: to attract and retain families, you must think big, offer immersive themes, and innovate with new features (interactive games, Ninja courses). For such a project, the entry price for equipment is currently between €150,000 and €600,000.

Note: this budget only concerns the play equipment. It does not include the renovation work for your building (electrical compliance, flooring, heating, creation of the snack area). To avoid unpleasant surprises in your financing plan, our design office is at your disposal to provide a custom estimate adapted to your future location.

What safety standards must an operator respect?

Opening an ERP (establishment open to the public) requires compliance with specific safety requirements. The visit of a safety commission is expected and recommended; you will need to provide a specific file for the building.

Regarding trampoline parks, we strictly apply the international standard ISO 23659 (2023). It imposes precise criteria: frame design, thickness of protective foams, net height, clearance zones to avoid impacts… It also governs operation and supervision. An independent laboratory verifies equipment compliance after installation.

Our tubular playgrounds and children’s structures comply with the EN 1176 series of European standards. Our equipment is tested and certified by the Swiss laboratory SGS, the world leader in inspection and certification. By choosing Play In Business, you are guaranteed to be in full compliance with the legislation in force in your country and to operate your park with complete peace of mind regarding your customers and your insurer.

How long does it take to design and install a complete complex?

The completion time is a frequent question. It depends on the complexity of your project and the surface area to be equipped. The overall process is divided into three phases: design, manufacturing, and installation.

The design of leisure equipment depends on its dimensions and complexity, but also on the plans of the building in which it will be installed. The more precise the plans, the faster the designers will work. Computerized technical plans in DWG format are the most precise. It then takes a few days to create a 3D drawing.

Once the design is validated, the manufacturing of your leisure park generally lasts 1 to 2 months, depending on the factory’s workload. Finally, transport and installation depend on the location and size of the equipment to be installed. Generally, it takes 3 to 4 months between the signing of the sales contract and the end of the installation.

On-site installation is carried out by our own teams of specialized installers. It generally takes place when the electricity, lighting, and heating are finished in the installation area, so often at the end of the construction project. We adapt to your schedule to set the end of the installation a few days before the date of the safety commission or your inauguration date.

How can I ensure the profitability of my future leisure park?

Profitability is based on three main pillars: entry fees, complementary sales, and events. Our experience as an operator allows us to advise you effectively on optimizing these different revenue sources.

Entry fees: The revenue generated from entry tickets will depend on the capacity, the types of customers billed (adults and/or children), and of course the prices offered. The bulk of the revenue will be generated during peak days, i.e., Wednesdays, weekends, and public holidays. It is therefore necessary to be able to accommodate a maximum number of customers in very few days. Your park’s capacity and customer rotation will be decisive. Play In Business can advise you on the park layout to optimize them.

Snacking and catering: A catering area is essential in an indoor leisure park. The bar/snack counter must be well-placed and well-stocked to encourage players and companions to consume before, during, or after their play sessions.

Events: and first of all, birthdays! This is the heart of a play area’s business model. Aimed at both young and old, the organization of birthday parties can represent 30 to 40% of the overall revenue of a play area. We design themed birthday rooms that generate a significant margin and guarantee occupancy on Wednesdays and weekends.

You should also think about animating your park throughout the year. Organizing theme nights for Halloween, a large egg hunt for Easter, animations for Christmas, or celebrating the anniversary of your park’s opening in a big way are powerful levers. These occasional events create an occasion, increase attendance during slower periods, and give you an excellent reason to communicate on your social networks.

Do you offer interactive games and technological novelties?

Absolutely. Interactive games have become essential in trampoline parks as well as for playgrounds or climbing walls. We integrate a wide range of digital games that blend fun sports and video games.

Among our best-sellers, you will find ValoJump (which projects the player into a video game on a giant screen), Cardio Wall (light reflex wall), Dodge Attack (interactive target), or Sky Pods. For the younger ones, we install solutions like the Talking Bag or the Kylii Kids interactive treasure hunt. This equipment considerably increases the attractiveness of your park and encourages the return of customers who want to beat their scores.

Is it possible to fully customize the theme of my park?

Yes, absolutely! Creating a magical or paradisiacal atmosphere in your space differentiates you and leaves an impression on your visitors. Play In Business is a pioneer of customization in leisure parks.

Whether you dream of a jungle, pirate, space, ocean, far-west, circus, viking, or futuristic atmosphere, our design office brings your imagination to life. Our 3D decors immerse you in a new universe, the starting point for many adventures and memories. We can use elements of your graphic charter and print your logo on the elements. This advanced theming creates an unforgettable immersive experience for children and strengthens your brand image.

Do you provide after-sales service and maintenance?

Yes, and this is a crucial point. A leisure structure undergoes intensive use. As a leisure park manufacturer, we stay by your side long after the opening.
We permanently maintain a stock of spare parts in Eastern France, a central position in Europe that allows us to be very reactive in case of a need for rapid replacement.
We offer maintenance contracts with partners to perform mandatory periodic checks: structure inspection, maintenance of moving parts, wear of nets and protective foams… Regular maintenance extends the life of your investment by several years and guarantees optimal safety for your customers.

Can you intervene for international projects?

Yes, Play In Business is an international player. Our expertise as a leisure park manufacturer is exported worldwide, with a presence mainly focused on Europe and Africa. We have successfully completed numerous projects in Morocco, Tunisia, Senegal, Reunion Island, as well as in various European countries.

Our logistics teams perfectly master export constraints. Subsequently, our installation teams travel to all continents to ensure the installation of your structures. Whether you are an investor based in France or abroad, the level of requirement remains the same, the quality of service is identical, and you have the absolute guarantee that your park will respect safety standards (ISO & EN).
