The 15 notes of the Wall Marimba are made from polished GRP which makes a very characteristic, distinctly happy sound.
The Wall Marimba is a space-saving outdoor musical instrument that introduces melody and rhythm into playgrounds, schools, and sensory play areas. Designed to be mounted directly onto a wall, it allows musical interaction without reducing usable ground space, making it ideal for sites where layout efficiency is essential.
Its vertical arrangement keeps the instrument accessible while maintaining clear sightlines and safer circulation within busy play environments.
With a clearly defined note layout, the Wall Marimba supports free play as well as guided musical activity. Users can explore tone, sequence, and rhythm through simple interaction, helping to develop coordination, listening skills, and creative expression.
Typical applications include:
• School playgrounds and outdoor classrooms
• Early years and primary education settings
• Sensory and inclusive play zones
• Community play areas with limited floor space
The instrument’s notes are manufactured from polished GRP, selected for its durability and consistent acoustic response outdoors. This material produces a bright, cheerful sound that remains clear and resonant in open environments without becoming intrusive.
Construction details include:
• 15 GRP note bars, tuned from C4 to C6 in a C Major diatonic scale
• 316 mirror-polished stainless steel mounting brackets
• Two vandal-resistant mallets, secured with coated stainless steel cable
• Robust fixings suitable for long-term outdoor installation
The Wall Marimba is supplied for wall mounting only, allowing it to be installed on a wide range of suitable solid wall surfaces. This mounting method helps protect the instrument from ground-level damage while positioning it at an appropriate height for supervised play.
Combining strong materials with a compact footprint, the Wall Marimba provides a reliable and engaging musical feature for outdoor environments. Its thoughtful design supports creative play while meeting the durability and safety expectations required for public and educational settings.
