Shop floor snapshots! 🔧📸

From cutting and painting to assembling and shipping, there is always something exciting happening behind the scenes at Wekid.

Every step on the shop floor matters. From early production to final prep and finishing, the talented Wekid team helps transform raw materials into finished features built with the strength, quality, and personality to stand out. 🤩

There is a lot that goes into every feature before it is finished, and it is always fun to see the final product take shape!

It has been a busy few weeks on the shop floor, and the Wekid team has been putting in the work! 😎

A huge shoutout to the amazing people across Wekid whose hard work, dedication, and collaboration help get every project out the door. It takes all of us, and that is something worth celebrating! 🎉

Not quite splash-pad ready yet, but getting closer! 🎨🐊

These pieces of Waterplay's Crocodile Fellow are primed, prepped, and ready for paint, bringing this fun and feisty feature one step closer to coming to life on the splash pad!

This stage is all about setting the foundation. Careful prep helps create a smooth, durable finish that looks great and holds up to years of play. It's one of those behind-the-scenes steps that makes a huge difference in the final product.

From the shop floor to the splash pad, every step matters, and it's always exciting to see splash pad features taking shape.💦

April is National Welding Month, and we’re fired up to celebrate the team behind the torch!🔥

At Wekid, welding is where the magic happens. It’s where stainless steel turns into something strong, splash-ready, and built to last. Every smooth bead and solid seam is a small work of art, backed by serious skill and steady hands.

Our welders don't just join metal. They help bring bold, splashy features to life for communities across North America. And while the sparks may only last a second, the impact of their work lasts for years.

Here’s to the crew who brings the heat all year long. We see you. We appreciate you. And we’re proud to build alongside you! 👏
