THKIHT RATIO 2.50"/6' The Revolutionary Idea of Continuous Play Landscape Structures was incorporated in 1971 by Steve and Barb King. Steve was a landscape architect with a keen eye for beautiful aesthetics and functionality, and a particular interest in applying these skills to the playground environment. Barb was a home economist with a talent for organization, and the inherent ability to plan, coordinate and execute multiple tasks. Their contrasting styles and backgrounds would prove to be a tremendous asset as they strove to turn an idea into a successful business. Landscape Structures' initial playground products were constructed in Barb and Steve's garage, and, like most playground equipment, were made almost entirely out of wood However, Steve's play equipment designs were unique in one important respect: The play components - slides, horizontal ladders and climbers - were interconnected and linked together. Steve termed this concept "continuous play" and reasoned that this allowed him to create more play value in a smaller space, and encourage more social interaction and skill development among children. This concept proved revolutionary in the playground industry and established the foundation for the growth of the company. Persistence Brings Growth In the beginning Barb and Steve did it all. They called on public parks, schools, child care centers and housing developments, and presented their designs and philosophy. Once hired, they bought the material, fabricated and constructed the playstructure, and installed it themselves. They also managed all the day-to-day business functions of accounting, insurance and banking. For years this pace kept them working 18-hour days and living from project to project. In the mid 1970s, Barb and Steve made the big step of hiring independent sales representatives to sell their products throughout the U.S. As sales grew, so did the demands on manufacturing and Landscape Structures began renting a small warehouse/manufacturing facility in Golden Valley, In 1975 the company built a larger facility in Independence, Minn. Within a few years, the company also outgrew this facility, and in the early 'BOs Barb and Steve King constructed a new manufacturing and warehousing building in Delano, Minn., a location that still serves as the company headquarters. In 1984 the company purchased Mexico Forge, a manufacturer of steel and aluminum playstructures, and began moving out of wood construction entirely. Once again, Steve saw an opportunity to provide school and park playgrounds with greater safety, durability and fun using the new materials and he never looked back. Today Landscape Structures employs nearly 300 people and has multiple manufacturing facilities totaling 340,000 square feet. Success Through Innovation Since its inception, Landscape Structures has been regarded. by customers. as an. innovator and manufacturer of the highest quality equipment available. The company strives to provide long-term .value.to the.customer in both products and services, and emphasizes continuous improvement in all operations and business units. The.company achieved ISO 9001:2000 certification in March 2003 and the ISO. 14001:2.004 environmental standard in 20.05 both were firsts in the playstructure industry. The pursuit of ISO certification helped Landscape Structures establish its quality management systems and establish.the infrastructure for continued growth. Steve King is the only head of a playstructure company who is also a landscape architect, and it shows. Under Steve's direction, Landscape Structures creates 15 to 20 new products each year and this pace of innovation creates a major competitive advantage for the company. Steve's eye for design and unique understanding of how kids play gives Landscape Structures playstructures a look and sense of completeness that sets them apart.from others. Steve. King is also the only chairman of a playstructure company to serve on the Federal Access Board, and has been integral in the framing of current. accessibility guidelines for our nation's (CONTINUED ON BACK) landscape structures'" 888,4FUNLSI playlsi.com ./9ir's is fo cerfl` j f�e 2uah`f J ar�ac�errlenf csysfem o.
