SAFETY & INSIGHTS
IATP helps park owners and operators understand the global standards that guide safer, more successful facilities and shares the data shaping the future of indoor adventure.
Here you’ll find the key frameworks, organizations, and industry data that keep our members informed and ahead of the curve.
GLOBAL SAFETY FOUNDATIONS
Every successful park relies on standards that protect guests, guide operations, and safeguard your business. These frameworks ensure consistency, reduce risk, and help operators make confident, compliant decisions.
ASTM International: Develops the globally recognized trampoline and adventure park standards, including ASTM F2970 for facility design, operation, and maintenance.
AIMS International: Provides training and certification programs for park operators, inspectors, and maintenance professionals.
ISO (International Organization for Standardization): Sets international frameworks for quality and safety management systems used across industries.
INDUSTRY GUIDELINES
ASTM International’s F24 standards provide a framework for safety and risk management, guiding park design, equipment maintenance, staff training, and risk mitigation to protect patrons and staff.
IATP identifies and recommends alignment with these standards to ensure that parks meet the highest safety and operational protocols. In summary, IATP’s recognition of these ASTM standards: builds credibility and trust, promotes consistency across the industry, strengthens the industry’s voice, improves efficiencies, and provides a clear framework for compliance and risk management.
