At Fantasy Castles, we understand the paramount significance of safety when it comes to providing inflatables for public use. That's why we are proud to adhere to the PIPA scheme, a rigourous testing and certification process that ensures the safety and quality of our inflatables. Similar to the annual MOT for cars, the PIPA scheme mandates that all inflatables hired out for public use undergo comprehensive safety testing every year. This testing covers a range of crucial factors, including anchor point strength, seam integrity, delamination, and pressure holding capacity. Additionally, our commitment to safety extends to the PAT testing of blowers and cables, ensuring that every component meets the highest safety standards. We are delighted to announce that all our inflatables have passed the PIPA testing with flying colours, and our certificates have been renewed for another 12 months. This reaffirms our dedication to providing safe and reliable inflatables for our customers' events and parties. For event and party organisers seeking to hire inflatables, we urge you to prioritise safety by requesting valid test certificates for the specific inflatables you plan to use. A reputable hirer will readily provide these certificates, which typically feature a photo or serial number for easy verification. Additionally, it's essential to inquire about insurance coverage to further safeguard your event. When you choose our inflatables, you can rest assured that each unit prominently displays a PIPA tag—a small blue disc affixed to the front step. This tag includes a QR code that allows you to instantly verify the live status of the unit's test, providing added peace of mind. It's important to note that the presence of a PIPA tag doesn't guarantee current testing status. Therefore, we encourage event organisers and party planners to verify the validity of the test and ensure that the inflatables they hire meet the highest safety standards. As you plan your summer events and parties, remember to bounce safe with Fantasy Castles. Our commitment to safety and quality ensures that every inflatable we provide is thoroughly tested and certified, offering a secure and enjoyable experience for all.
