Rampline AS

What Rampline AS does

Rampline AS is a Norwegian manufacturer and designer of playground and outdoor activity equipment, founded in 2009 and headquartered in Talgje, Rogaland, Norway, operating with a team of approximately 5 people. The company designs and delivers certified, universal-design playground equipment under the Motor Skills Park™ concept, combining balance, climbing, slackline, and trampoline products into integrated activity environments. Its product portfolio comprises roughly 14+ distinct branded items — including ShockDeck™ (an impact-absorbing wooden decking ground cover that eliminates microplastics and adhesives), Fungi™ climbing mushrooms, Rampball® tilting/rotating balance balls, the Rampline® slackline with SlackShield™ webbing, Jumpstone™ springy stepping stones, BalanceBuddy™ and BalanceBuddy Wave™ beams, the Rampit™ family of activity racks, Playground Loop™ in-ground trampolines, and the Floating Bench™ — alongside standardized Park configurations such as Pulse Zone, Marathon Play, Jane Jump, All In, Trip, and Flight. All equipment carries TÜV certification to NS EN 1176 (playground safety) and NS EN 16630 (outdoor fitness), with ShockDeck additionally certified to NS EN 1177.

The company's revenue model is project-based enterprise field sales: Rampline designs custom Motor Skills Park installations for Norwegian municipalities, primary/secondary schools, kindergartens, property developers, and urban/architectural projects, bundles equipment with design and specification services, and prices through custom quotes. Installation is executed via local Norwegian contractors rather than a captive labor force. Distribution is single-country (Norway), with a sales motion combining direct enterprise outreach (General Manager Kolbjørn Setvik, Founder Maria Grindheim Skavland), website-driven inbound quote requests, and specification-stage work with landscape architects via LEK & LARK presentations and downloadable BIM/CAD/OAM technical resources. Recurring revenue is generated from spare parts and maintenance documentation tied to the installed base.

Customer concentration sits across a diversified Norwegian public-sector and developer base — named clients include Gjesdal, Suldal, Askøy, Time, Stavanger, and Eigersund municipalities; Forsand, Jåtten, Møllehagen, and Hop schools; Nymarkbakken kindergarten; and developers Zeiner (Kanalen Pier) and OBOS (5°Øst). Strategic brand assets include the 2019 Statens byggkvalitetspris (National Building Quality Prize) for Ålgård Sentrum, the 2016 Stavanger Municipal Architectural Award for OBOS 5°Øst, and flagship architectural co-development partnerships with ATSITE, Brandsberg-Dahls arkitekter, Sweco, and Zenisk. The company is privately held by founders with no disclosed external funding.
