In the late 1960’s, Finnish schoolyards, kindergarten yards and outdoor public parks were very scarcely furnished with playground equipment. In 1970, Mr Antero Ikäheimo, the founding father of Lappset Group Oy, established the company in order to provide inspirational playground equipment in Arctic conditions to enhance children’s well-being through play. The company’s first name was Oy Pohjoiskalotti – Nordkalotten Ab with the initial markets in the Nordic countries and exports first to Japan, Belgium and Germany. As the company’s business expanded geographically and also product wise to comprise also outdoor exercise and fitness equipment as well as park and street furniture, the company’s name was changed to Lappset Group Oy in 1991.
