Machine Operator bei Landscape Structures

ABOUT LANDSCAPE STRUCTURES 

Landscape Structures Inc. has been the leading manufacturer of commercial playground equipment in the world for more than 50 years. Our employee-owned company designs community and school playgrounds that encourage kids of all ages and abilities to learn persistence, leadership, competition, bravery, support, and empathy through play. Landscape Structures pushes the limits—of design, inclusion, and play—to help kids realize there is no limit to what they can do today and in the future. For a better tomorrow, we play today.

Our work spans three divisions—commercial playgrounds, splash pads and shade structures—each with a shared goal to create engaging, inclusive and inspiring outdoor spaces. While headquartered in Delano, Minn., our shade division—SkyWays® by Landscape Structures—is based in Dallas, Texas, where the team supports our playground business as well as designs and manufactures industry-leading shade solutions.

SkyWays shade structures do more than protect, they define and elevate the spaces they serve. Engineered to withstand extreme heat and harmful UV rays, our innovative products can cool outdoor environments by up to 30 degrees. From playgrounds and splash pads to dog parks, amphitheaters and zoos, our versatile shade solutions bring beauty, comfort and cohesion to every outdoor setting. Bold, functional, and thoughtfully integrated, our designs don’t just offer shelter, they transform experiences.
