Non-powered amusement rides become the market mainstream, achieving dual breakthroughs in structural safety and experiential innovation.

In recent years, non-powered playground equipment has become the top choice for parks, communities, and shopping malls, thanks to its low risk, high interactivity, and strong educational value.

In recent years, non-powered playground equipment has become the top choice for parks, communities, and shopping malls, thanks to its low risk, high interactivity, and strong educational value. As a result, its market share has surged from 35% in 2018 to an impressive 68% by 2025. These facilities operate without electricity, relying entirely on children’s own physical movements to create engaging play experiences. They come in a variety of designs, including climbing structures, slides, balance beams, sandpits, and more. At the heart of their appeal lies the seamless integration of structural safety with thoughtful, immersive experience design. ​

In terms of structural safety, the new version of the "Safety Code for Small Amusement Facilities" imposes stringent requirements on non-powered installations: Platforms taller than 3 meters must undergo comprehensive structural load calculations, and the safety factor under extreme conditions such as wind and snow loads must be no less than 1.5. Additionally, anchoring systems must feature anti-pull-out designs, with inflatable facilities requiring anchor point spacing no greater than 3 meters to ensure stability even in high-wind scenarios. The tragic incident in 2024, when a bouncy castle in Baotou was overturned by strong winds, directly prompted the introduction of mandatory standards for anchoring systems. ​

At the innovation level, the industry is seeing a growing trend toward "themed + educational" experiences. For instance, Nantong Urban Agriculture Park’s non-powered amusement park seamlessly integrates facilities with nature-based education, featuring elements like insect-viewing platforms and plant-climbing walls—allowing children to learn about ecology while having fun. Meanwhile, XSPACE Family Growth Center adopts a modular design, enabling it to easily switch out facility configurations based on seasonal themes. Paired with a comprehensive, blind-spot-free monitoring system and dedicated staff supervision, the center strikes the perfect balance between safety and immersive experiences. Data shows that non-powered attractions with themed designs boast a 40% higher average customer spend compared to standard products, while also driving a 25% increase in repeat purchases—making them a new growth driver for the industry.

The special crackdown on mobile large-scale amusement facilities kicked off in 2025, with strict measures targeting illegal production and usage.

The market demand for children's playground equipment is showing a significant upward trend, with safety assurance, eco-friendly materials, and educational features emerging as the three core factors parents consider most critically—driving the industry to shift from "single-purpose entertainment" toward "comprehensive experiential offerings."

Regulations for edge products of large-scale amusement facilities have been clarified, bringing previously ambiguous areas under regulatory oversight.

For a long time, certain "edge products"—those positioned between small and large-scale installations (such as facilities operating at heights of 1.9–2 meters and speeds of 1.9–2 m/s)—have remained in a regulatory gray area

Although the green transition has become an industry consensus, amusement ride companies still face multiple challenges, including soaring costs, immature technologies, and an imperfect recycling system.
