Sustainability Built for Generations to Come

Built for generations to come

At ACON we challenge the notion that what goes up must come down. We believe that with the right design and proper care, your trampoline can last you longer than a lifetime. This perspective comes from years of designing and manufacturing the trampolines with the best bounce. But did you know we’re also working to ensure that ACON is also the trampoline with the longest use.

Sustainability is a Journey, not a Destination

We design so you can pass along the thrills of ACON to the next generation. This ideal goes beyond just a trampoline, but also our own goals of passing along a better world to those who come next. In order to do so, we’ve set out three main core tenets that drive our efforts today and will ensure we will continue to work to achieve them in the future.

1. Building products already focused on our environmental efforts
2. Partnering with suppliers to deliver on our goals around sustainability
3. Creating a valuable and reliable system for replacement parts to extend the use of your equipment

Designed for Our Planet

We design and craft our equipment to last for generations. Someday, your children’s kids may bounce with the same great lift that they did as kids. This focus on durable trampolines built for long-term use is at the heart of our approach: premium components, replaceable parts, and materials designed to withstand season after season. And when it’s finally time to say goodbye to your ACON, we engineer our current models to be 99.5% recyclable.

Building Relationships that Sustain Our Sustainability

Every day, we’re working hard to create even more transparency in our supply chain and our communications. We’re proud that our many of our manufacturing relationships date back longer than a decade. These familiar partnerships allow us to better deliver on our goals. Less impact on the planet and more impact on behalf of our world.

Refresh, Don’t Replace

As part of our commitment to Synergy Design, we’re continuing to set new standards for our company and our products. Which is why we’ve engineered an entire fleet of replacement parts for all of our trampolines. It not only extends the use of your trampoline, but with thoughtful care and refreshing, it gives it a whole new life.

How to Make Your Trampoline Use Even More Environmentally Friendly

• Perform regular maintenance to identify wear and tear before small issues become larger problems

• Replace worn components instead of replacing the entire trampoline whenever possible.

• Use genuine replacement parts designed to fit your trampoline and maintain its performance.

• Store accessories properly during harsh weather conditions to help extend their lifespan.

• Clean your trampoline regularly to keep materials in good condition and reduce premature deterioration.

• Follow the manufacturer's care guidelines to maximize the product's usable life.

• Pass your trampoline on to another family if it is no longer needed but remains in good condition.

• Recycle trampoline materials responsibly when the product eventually reaches the end of its life.

• Choose durable products designed for long-term use rather than equipment intended for frequent replacement.

• Consider upgrades and refreshes that can extend the life of your trampoline and keep it performing at its best.

F.A.Q

What are the most eco-friendly trampoline brands available in Canada?

When evaluating trampoline sustainability, it is often more useful to focus on product longevity, repairability, and recyclability rather than brand names alone. Trampolines designed for long-term use, supported by replacement parts, and built from durable materials can help reduce waste over time. Products that can be maintained, refreshed, and passed on to future users may offer environmental advantages compared to equipment designed for frequent replacement.

What features should I look for in an environmentally friendly trampoline?

Look for a trampoline that is designed for durability, supported by replacement parts, and built with long-term use in mind. Other beneficial features include recyclable materials, high-quality construction, and access to replacement components that allow individual parts to be repaired or refreshed rather than replacing the entire trampoline. A longer product lifespan generally results in a lower environmental impact.

What certifications should I look for in an environmentally responsible trampoline?

Certification requirements can vary by country and manufacturer. When researching a trampoline, look for clear information about materials, product safety, recyclability, and manufacturing practices. Transparency around product design, durability, and environmental commitments can help consumers make more informed purchasing decisions when comparing different options.
