Shelters

For over 35 years, AMV Playgrounds has been a leader in designing and installing playground shelters, which are a practical and versatile solution to maximise outdoor areas within schools.

We understand headteachers and purchasing managers often look to enhance their school’s outdoor facilities to provide a safe and engaging outdoor learning environment for your pupils.

However, the unpredictable British weather can often hinder their ability to enjoy the benefits of outdoor play or learning. This is where playground shelters come into play, transforming your school playground into a year-round hub of activity.

We are proud to have been in business for over 35 years and are one of the longest established manufacturers within the UK playground equipment and outdoor sports industry.

There are shelters for children to sit, learn, and socialise; shelters to provide added protection to cycle stands against the elements; and canopies to provide shelter along walkways or by the side of buildings.
