Materials ^Top
Miracle creates state-of-the-art playground equipment, recreation equipment and Outdoor Fitness equipment utilizing the best materials and the most innovative features. We also created an efficient process to clean and recycle unused powder coat paint to keep costs low.
Just a few of our state-of-the-art features are:
- Versa-lok Clamp - Our Versalok® II clamping system makes installation of components a snap. The clamp is made from up to 100% recycled aluminum alloy, and all fastening hardware is stainless steel and tamper-resistant.
- GatorGrip® - Miracle's handrails and rungs feature our new GatorGrip, with a texture that is friendly and reassuring to small hands
- Flo-Coat - Our state-of-the-art Flo-Coat® steel tubing was developed specifically for children's playground equipment, and is zinc galvanized coated inside and out for superior resistance to abrasions, scratches, salt, and the elements.
- Mira-Cote® - All metal components are finished with Mira-Cote- a durable, electrostatically applied, non-toxic, lead-free, polyester powder coating that's available in 17 colors.
- Mira-therm® - All decks, steps, ramps, and bridges, as well as a variety of complementary items, are coated with Mira-Therm, our proprietary brand of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) containing UV stabilizers, color pigments, and flame retardants. Mira-Therm-coated punched steel with folded edges provides quick drainage, with holes too small for fingers

We recycle unused powder coat paint in certain colors, after it is properly reclaimed during the painting process.
Imagine piles of crumpled steel and truckloads of aluminum cans transformed into state-of-the-art playground equipment. That's essentially what happens when Miracle puts recycling to work. We produce our playground equipment using as much recycled and recyclable material as we can use, while still maintaining the safety, durability and structural integrity you have come to expect from Miracle.
Miracle’s steel posts, handrails, and guardrails are sturdy, durable, and economical, and are made from at least 50% recycled steel. Post clamps and caps are made from as much as 100% post-consumer aluminum. And our roto-molded plastic slides are made from 100% recyclable resins. Simply put, nearly all of Miracle’s playground equipment is produced from at least 50% recyclable materials.
When it comes to your playground equipment, make the natural choice: Miracle. We'll make it a fun, safe, attractive, and environmentally friendly.
