Indiana park Castellana Grotte was designed by the company that holds the brand and has many years of experience in the sector. So nothing is improvised. Before installing a structure, the trees were analysed with specific procedures by professionals to verify their stability. The materials used (rope elements, fasteners, etc.) are certified according to the technical standards of AFNOR, the French standardization body. In this regard, it is planned to issue the European Technical Standard during 2008, the drafting of which is already completed. It defines the aspects of good technique related to the design and operation of the structures, providing that they are submitted annually to testing by a certifying body.
