Garnica is a global leader in the production of innovative and high-quality plywood, working with wood from sustainable and renewable sources to preserve ecological balance. Duraply plywood from Garnica was used across a series of public playground projects designed by Monstrum, built in multiple locations across Europe and the United States.

Monstrum is known for designing large-scale, sculptural playgrounds that function as both public art and inclusive play environments. Each project is conceived as a landmark structure, often inspired by animals, folklore, or local narratives, and designed to withstand heavy daily use in exposed outdoor settings. These playgrounds are typically commissioned by municipalities or cultural institutions and are intended as long-term installations within public parks and urban landscapes.

Duraply plywood was selected for its high structural strength, durability, and resistance to moisture and weathering. The material is used in load-bearing and enclosure elements, supporting complex forms such as climbing towers, tunnels, and slides while maintaining a smooth, safe surface for play. Its performance allows Monstrum to realize expressive geometries at scale, delivering playgrounds that are robust, visually distinctive, and built to last.
