How we manufacture and distribute our UNITRAMP trampolines

At Universal Services, much of our sports equipment is designed and manufactured in-house at our factory in Maldon, Essex – including our UNITRAMP trampolines.

These products are developed from extra heavy gauge steel tubes and zinc plating to ensure they are both durable and aesthetically attractive. Each trampoline’s coverall frame pads are made from lightweight foam and covered in nylon-reinforced PVC for enhanced safety and improved comfort.

We’re one of the leading trampoline suppliers in the UK, largely because we take great care throughout the entire process to ensure high quality results, every time. Here’s how we create and distribute these hard-wearing trampolines for our customers.


Step 1:

The different sections of steel tube – some round, oval and square – are taken out of the storage rack and cut to length ready for bending. The end rails and leg sections are then bent to the required angles on our bespoke bending machine, using different formers. Once this step is complete, the parts are stored ready for the next part of the manufacturing process.

Step 2:

Numerous trampoline parts are turned, drilled, and deburred. These components are put in various jigs prior to welding to make up the several different completed trampoline sections. Many of these sections are universal across our range of trampoline sizes.

Step 3:

The completed sections are loaded onto stillages to be sent to be bright zinc plated and then stored in our warehouse once completed. From here, they will be ready for assembly in batches.

Step 4:

The various sized trampoline frames are assembled and stored ready to be fitted with the relevant sized trampoline web bed, along with the trampoline coverall pads and our standard, lift/lower or dampened lift/lower rollerstands.

Once the trampoline is completely built, it is checked prior to loading onto our own delivery vehicles.

Step 5:

The trampoline is delivered to the customer and left in their hall. Staff can then set up the trampoline as required, with no need for reassembly.
