Children's water area

Attractions in the children's water area are a special experience for young age groups because they are specially tailored to their needs and to their safety. The said attractions are designed for children and allow for safe and enjoyable water fun. By adapting to smaller body sizes, these attractions offer children the opportunity to have fun with playful body control and in a safe environment. Combined with age-appropriate challenges, this joyful experience ensures unforgettable moments.

In addition, the attractions offered in the children's water area require only a minimal amount of personnel. After a short introduction, children can play safely under the supervision of their parents or carers. This aspect makes the attractions low-maintenance and cost-efficient for operators, while at the same time guaranteeing maximum fun and safety for young visitors.

Construction and Features

With Wiegand's professionals

The manufacture of water slides depends on the specific requirements of the customer and the chosenmaterial. There are two main materials: stainless steel and glass fibre reinforced plastic (GRP), which are produced in Wiegand's own plants in Rasdorf and Brüssow in Germany. With over 350 employees worldwide, the company ensures that the slides are pre-produced in the best possible way in order to minimize assembly times at the site. Theconstructionis carried out internally in regular coordination with the project management, the customer and theproduction.

With water

A water slide uses an inclined plane and smooth materials such asGRPorStainless steelto allow low friction downward movement. The running water and sometimes rubber tires or mats help to further reduce friction so that one or more people can have a sliding experience at the same time. The speed is determined by the slope of the slide, with classic slides such as theWR1040which usually have a gradient of up to 13%.

Above 50 km/h possible

The slide speed on a water slide varies depending on the slide type and design. Cozy slides such as whitewater rivers reach speeds of about1–2 km/hwhile steeper high-speed slides can reach over50 km/h. The speed is influenced by various factors, including the slope of the slide, the amount of water and special design elements.

We customize the said parameters to allow for different slide experiences, from the gentle family slides to action-packed adrenaline rides.

Almost vertically possible

The steepness of water slides can vary considerably. The most extreme form is theFalling startwith a gradient of over 80°, which changes from an almost vertical start to a smoother slide. In contrast, whitewater rivers are almost horizontal. Generally speaking, the steeper the slide, the faster the slide speed.

It depends

TheConstruction periodof a water slide cannot be specified as a flat rate, as this period depends on the size of the slide, the production utilization and the construction phases. As a rule, you should expect several months from project planning to completion. For some projects, such as for example cruise ships, planning can take several years. The assembly time varies between a few days and several months depending on the type of slide.

From the bottom to the top

The construction of a water slide begins with the preparation of the foundation. Depending on the site structure, support pylons and stairs are then erected, followed by the assembly of the outlet basin. The slide itself is usually assembled from the bottom to the top. This is done by our own assembly teams and auxiliary workers on site.

Tailored

The construction work begins with an individual planning phase, in which we adapt the design to the circumstances and wishes of the customer. After that, the production takes place in our own plants by using high-quality materials such as stainless steel and GRP. The prefabricated slide parts are then assembled on site and extensively tested before the commissioning phase. Even after the installation, we will be available with maintenance and services. From here you can reach ourPerformances.

Get in touch with us!

We will be happy to advise you on your waterslide project and prepare an individual offer. The maintenance work is also part of our service.

Diverse slides

For thermal baths, we offer a wide range of water slides allowing both relaxation and adventure. An example is the Loipersdorf thermal bath with five impressive slides. Also in the thermal bath of Erding, Germany's largest slide paradise, many of the spectacular slides come from our production. Our slides can be individually adapted and harmoniously integrated into the architecture of the thermal bath in order to offer guests an unforgettable experience.

Special slides for cruise ships

For the use on cruise ships, we develop tailor-made water slides meeting the special requirements on board. An example of this type of cruise ships is the AIDA PRIMA, which is equipped with a 96-meter-long Body Racer made of stainless steel and acrylic glass tubes, as well as a 54-meter-long Lazy River. Two tire slides with lengths of 79 metres and 80 metres as well as a 77 metre long family slide were installed on the cruise ship AIDA NOVA. Our slides are designed to meet the limited space and safety standards on cruise ships while providing an exciting slide experience for guests.

Between 3m and 15m

The amount of space required depends on the type of slide and can vary greatly. The water slide can also be adapted to the already existing space.

Smaller slides require only a few meters, while large tubular slides or multi-lane broad wave slides need more space. We offer individual planning solutions for different space conditions.

Yes, upon request, they are.

Yes, we develop solutions that can also be used by people with disabilities, for example through gentle slopes, special entry areas and non-slip surfaces.
