Green oasis with elegant workout fitness equipment at Hudson River Park in New York
Hudson River Park Manhattan

Welcome to a huge project on 5.5 hectares in the Hudson River Park on the Gansevoort Peninsula, which will be a new recreational offer for the residents of New York. The area was originally laid out on the remains of fill from a land reclamation project that was supposed to expand Manhattan in the 1830s. This gave the renowned New York-based firm of James Corner Field Operations, landscape architects and urban designers, a fantastic opportunity to incorporate both ecological restoration and water access into the project, which would not be possible on a typical Hudson River Park pier .

Green oasis in the middle of the city

James Corner Field Operations was responsible for designing the project in close collaboration with the surrounding community, which was given ample opportunity to provide input through a series of meetings and workshops, resulting in a design that combines both active and passive uses.

The area will be a green oasis, with a salt marsh on the north side that will be unique on the Manhattan side of the Hudson River. Native grasses and plantings will provide a valuable habitat while giving park users an insight into the environmental benefits of tidal ecosystems.

The south side of the peninsula will feature Manhattan’s first public beach. The beach will feature a rocky shore and will allow kayakers and other small boaters to access the river – but it will also invite relaxation and views of the river.

North of the beach will be a lawn and seating area, as well as a large multi-use sports field surrounded by clusters of trees.

Along the western side of the peninsula there will be a dog walking area, picnic tables and sun loungers.

Outdoor gym equipment for park in New York made by NOORD

One of the world's best-known architectural houses chose outdoor fitness equipment from NOORD

There will be gardens, promenades and a fitness area – and for the fitness area the architect has chosen NOORD’s powder coated outdoor fitness equipment, which is weatherproof and has no moving parts, i.e., there are no screws, bolts or anything else that can be removed from the equipment and used for vandalism.

Like all exercise equipment in NOORD’s Spirer series, the equipment supplied for this project is designed to create an aesthetic and functional exercise area in residential areas, school playgrounds and public parks. The equipment is ideal for public spaces and is designed for training with your own body weight, minimizing the risk of overuse injuries. The equipment can be used by anyone regardless of gender, age and fitness level.

Outdoor fitness equipment is often used when architects such as James Corner Field Operations design public parks, urban spaces, rooftops or other places where a wide audience should have the opportunity to exercise in the open air.

Fitness equipment from NOORD will adorn a prestigious project in New York

It was with pride and joy that we sent the shipment to New York, with all the elegant fitness equipment that will now be part of the big prestige project at the Hudson River Park on the Gansevoort Peninsula, Manhattan. Tourists from all over the world and local residents will have the opportunity to experience the beautiful park and underneath also the outdoor fitness equipment from NOORD’s Spirer series.

The work is in full swing and is expected to be completed during 2023 – New York, here we come!

Bellahøj outdoor swimming pool adds New Rubber Coating

Enhanced Swimming Experience: Upgraded Bellahøj Outdoor Swimming Pool now offers an improved swimming experience with a new non-slip and permeable rubber coating. This upgrade adds an extra layer of comfort and safety, making it the ideal place for families and swimmers to enjoy outdoor recreation.

Ideal Location for an Outdoor Swimming Pool

Bellahøj Outdoor Swimming Pool  is a popular outdoor swimming facility located in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is one of the city’s oldest and largest outdoor pools, offering a unique experience for both locals and tourists. The swimming pool includes both a main pool and a children’s pool, making it suitable for families. This location allows visitors to combine swimming with other outdoor activities and recreational opportunities in the park. After a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool, people can relax on the grass, take a walk, play ball games, or enjoy a picnic under the open sky. This is ideal for families, as both children and adults can find activities that suit their interests.

Bellahøj Outdoor Svimming pool

Attractive and functional outdoor swimming pool

Our specialized rubber coatings at NOORD, known for outdoor exercise equipment, offer non-slip and fall-resistant solutions that are ideal for outdoor swimming pools like Bellahøj Outdoor Swimming Pool. We focus on durability, safety, and aesthetics in our design of permeable rubber coatings, which allow water to pass through and thus help prevent puddles and standing water around swimming pools.

This approach ensures that Bellahøj Outdoor Swimming Pool has an attractive and functional surface around their pools that is not only comfortable to walk on but also meets the necessary safety standards for swimming areas. Our commitment to delivering quality solutions for outdoor environments is reflected in our rubber coatings, which combine innovation and functionality to create pleasant and safe surroundings for visitors.

The custom rubber coating is designed to withstand chlorinated water without the risk of discoloration or degradation, making it perfectly suitable for swimming pools. We have applied a natural sand-colored surface that provides a pleasant beach-like feel while maintaining the necessary safety standards. The non-slip property ensures that both children and adults can move around the pools safely without the risk of slipping. Visitors can enjoy the soft surface under their feet, contributing to a comfortable and realistic beach experience in the heart of the city.

NOORD’s rubber coating combines aesthetics and functionality, enhancing the unique atmosphere and accessibility of this popular outdoor swimming facility.

Colleges and universities demand outdoor fitness equipment

At colleges and universities in Denmark as well as in the rest of the world, we also see an increasing demand for areas with outdoor fitness equipment. At Roskilde Gymnasium in Denmark, the school has chosen to create an area with outdoor fitness equipment near the school’s hall and playing fields, so that during the summer months it is possible to incorporate the equipment into the sports lessons. 

The area is beautifully situated between pines and bushes, which frame the area in the finest way. Underneath the equipment, the school has chosen a rubber surface with its own logo as fall protection. The school’s area with outdoor fitness equipment consists of push-up bars, parallel bars, jump boxes in different heights and bars for triceps extensions.

 

Why schools and educational institutions should focus on movement

We are proud to present our range of outdoor equipment tailored towards schools and public institutions. By combining learning with movement, we can create a dynamic learning environment that not only benefits individual students and participants, but also strengthens the entire community.
 
By incorporating movement into teaching, it is possible to engage students in a more active and practical way. Studies show that movement based learning improves comprehension, memory and problem solving skills.
 
Short breaks for physical activity can also improve students’ concentration and attention. Providing equipment for outdoor play and movement can create opportunities for these important breaks during the school day.

NOORD fitness equipment featured at Tom Lee Park

The installation of NOORD fitness equipment at Tom Lee Park not only promotes exercise and wellness but also enhances the park’s overall appeal and functionality. Tom Lee Park, located along the Mississippi River in Memphis, Tennessee, is a popular outdoor destination known for its scenic views and recreational opportunities.

With the addition of diverse outdoor activities and improvements within Tom Lee Park, such as the introduction of NOORD fitness equipment, the park is set to become an even more appealing and stimulating destination. 

Historical public area with Fitness equipment

Tom Lee Park is a public park located along the Memphis River, Tennessee. It’s named after Tom Lee, a local African-American man who rescued 32 people from a sinking steamboat in 1925. It is therefore a great honor to have NOORD fitness equipment at this historical space. Throughout the years, Tom Lee Park improved its space and activities, offering expansive green spaces suitable for picnics, sports activities, or simply relaxing outdoors.

Tom Lee Park serves as a common area for community gatherings, hosting various events and festivals throughout the year. From music festivals to cultural celebrations, the park plays a pivotal role in fostering community spirit and providing memorable experiences for residents and tourists. The addition of NOORD fitness equipment further enriches the park’s offerings, encouraging individuals of all ages to embrace an active lifestyle while appreciating the park’s historical significance and natural beauty.

While the park is known primarily for its green spaces and event facilities, the fitness area provides an opportunity for visitors to engage in outdoor exercise. The fitness area is situated within the park’s expansive green spaces, providing a refreshing outdoor environment for physical activity. The scenic views of the Mississippi River and the park surroundings add to the appeal of exercising outdoors. Like other Facilities in Tom Lee Park, the fitness area is free to use and accessible to park visitors of all ages and fitness levels. It’s a welcoming space for individuals and families looking to stay active while enjoying the park’s natural beauty.

NOORD providing excellent equipment

NOORD’s products are powder coated outdoor fitness equipment, which is weatherproof and has no moving parts, i.e., there are no screws, bolts or anything else that can be removed from the equipment and used for vandalism.

Like all exercise equipment in NOORD’s Spirer series, the equipment supplied for this project is designed to create an aesthetic and functional exercise area in residential areas, school playgrounds and public parks.

New and improved park with equipment from NOORD

The addition of NOORD’s fitness equipment not only promotes physical activity and wellness but also enhances the overall appeal and functionality of the park. The addition of diverse outdoor activities and improvements within the park will make it an appealing and stimulating destination for educational institutions and local residents.

The expanded selection of activities will accommodate diverse interests and age groups, providing opportunities for education, fitness, and exploration in an engaging outdoor setting. This transformation is expected to encourage community involvement and motivate individuals to take part in park activities.

Improvements to Bingfield Park with outdoor gym equipment

In July 2023 Islington Council started the improvements for Bingfield Park in Islington, London, to provide new and better opportunities for local people to spend time outside in nature. The ideal idea was” Making the space more biodiverse, child-friendly and fun for visitors.” NOORD Outdoor Fitness has delivered yet again, adding to The Greatest Outdoor Fitness equipment, which completes the workout area at Bingfield Park.

Improvements to Bingfield Park with outdoor gym equipment

Outdoor environment for everyone

Bingfield Park is situated near several schools and educational institutions, such as Central Saint Martins university and other primary schools. Its proximity to these schools makes it a convenient outdoor space for activities and outdoor learning opportunities for students.

The park offers numerous benefits, including a playground for young visitors, a hand bike—a specialized bicycle designed for individuals with disabilities, expansive green spaces perfect for walks or picnics, a basketball court, Football pitch and various recreational opportunities for everyone to enjoy without any obligations.

Adding new local facilities with NOORD

Islington Council, residents and community organizations such as We are Cally worked together to reshape the area by investing £1.25 million. The overall idea is” planning to make our borough cleaner, greener, and healthier”. Therefore, is NOORD Outdoor Fitness the ideal producer for Bingfield Park improvement project. Due to the 100% recyclable steel, we reduce our carbon footprint while also contributing to a circular economy.

NOORD’s products are powder coated outdoor fitness equipment, which is weatherproof and has no moving parts, i.e., there are no screws, bolts or anything else that can be removed from the equipment and used for vandalism.

Parks with SUDS technology

By Projects
City parks with an attractive park environment and fitness equipments
City parks with SUDS technology and fitness equipment

Parks around the world are being transformed into multifunctional areas that serve both as green spaces and as local water collection and drainage facilities. This is done through the implementation of SUDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) technologies, which have proven to be an effective way to manage rainwater in urban areas.

City parks combine SUDS technology and an attractive park environment

SUDS technology is based on the principle of mimicking nature’s water cycle by using different techniques to collect, filter, and use rainwater locally. When rainwater is collected locally, it can be used to water plants and lawns, replenish groundwater, prevent flooding and reduce the load on the city’s sewage system.

NOORD became part of such a SUDS project when Vejle Municipality in Denmark, as part of a larger climate project, created a park with SUDS facilities and activity options for the city’s residents. NOORD has delivered outdoor fitness equipment for the new climate park in Vejle.

The climate park is a sub-project in the large “Climate Project East Town”. In the climate park, the route by which the water is channelled to Vejle Fjord is made visible by setting up white concrete elements that shoot up among the green grass.

Dimensions corresponding to a 100-year rain event

Changes have been made to the terrain so that the entire Tommy Troelsen Park with its three independent basins can hold a total of 5,300 cubic meters of water, dimensioned for a 100-year rainfall event.

SUDS systems like this are not uncommon in Denmark, as they are a long-term solution to the changes that come in the wake of climate change

In addition to serving as a green recreational area for the city’s inhabitants, the park functions both as an innovative activity area with ball, multi- and roller courts and as a wastewater engineering facility with three rainwater basins. In this way, rainwater is stored in the city’s green areas during future heavy rainfall in what looks like an ordinary activity park on a day-to-day basis.

Fitness equipment from NOORD is extremely durable regardless of the amount of water

Tommy Troelsen Park includes a 153 m2 outdoor fitness area with exercise equipment from NOORD. Our outdoor training and fitness equipment is specially designed for use in parks and public areas and can be used by everyone, regardless of gender, age and fitness level.

NOORD’s equipment can withstand large amounts of water without any problems, both the construction and surface treatment of the outdoor fitness equipment is designed to withstand all weather conditions – even in a park that functions as a SUDS facility at times when massive amounts of water can fall.

Millennium Park in Chicago - The world's largest park with LAR facilities

In many other parts of the world, there are different variations of parks that serve both as SUDS facilities and as parks for tourists and city residents throughout the year.

One of the largest parks with a SUDS system is Millennium Park in Chicago, USA. The park is known for its large reflective LURIE glass, which is a 9,300 m2 water mirror that acts as a SUDS system. The glass collects rainwater and sends it through a filtration process before it is used to water the plants in the park.

Another park with a large SUDS system is Suzhou Bay in China. The park is an example of how SUDS technology can be used to transform former industrial areas into green oases. The park has an extensive system of water channels and wetlands designed to collect, filter, and store rainwater. The park also contains a number of tourist attractions, including a botanical garden, a zoo and a maritime museum.

Outdoor fitness equipment for leg raises and pull ups from NOORD

Recycling rainwater is an environmentally sound solution

The many examples of SUDS parks in different parts of the world show how LAR technology can be used to transform urban areas into green, multifunctional spaces that benefit both the environment and the local

community. By collecting and reusing rainwater, SUDS parks can also help reduce the burden on urban sewerage systems and minimise the risk of flooding.

Outdoor fitness equipment to motivate young people made by Danish company NOORD
The Scandinavian Center in Aarhus offers free outdoor training

In Aarhus, there are plenty of opportunities to exercise and work out outdoors. One of the places where it is possible to train for free and undisturbed is at the Scandinavian Center, where some of NOORD’s beautiful and sculptural outdoor fitness equipment has been installed.

Outdoor fitness equipment should motivate young people to a healthier lifestyle

Today, Scandinavian Center Aarhus houses a wide range of facilities such as a hotel, business, private hospital, fitness, etc. The center is located in the heart of Aarhus and very close to the city’s cultural life, with, among other things, the Concert Hall “Musikhuset”, City Hall Square and “Godsbanen” (the freight railway) as its closest neighbours. In the centre of the buildings at the Scandinavian Center, a cozy courtyard environment with benches and plants has been established.

The common recreational areas with an outdoor fitness area with exercise equipment from NOORD are a focal point for the entire area, where one can exercise, socialize and relax at the same time.

The area with 9 different pieces of exercise equipment is located on the roof of the building’s underground car park. The equipment will help to keep the young people living in the Scandinavian Center’s housing occupied in a healthy and inspiring way.

Outdoor exercise area for young people made by NOORD

The range of outdoor exercise equipment is large

At the Scandinavian Center, “Spirerne” adorn a rooftop terrace for the benefit of residents and tourists in the center of Aarhus. The rooftop terrace has equipment such as parallel bars, bars for triceps dips, Spirer Boxes for lounges, pull-up bars at different heights for exercises such as straight bar dips, pull-ups and windshield wipers, and incline bench for various abdominal exercises.

Fitness equipment in beautiful Danish design

From the very beginning, NOORD has focused on design when it comes to products for urban spaces. That is why we have developed outdoor fitness equipment in a beautiful design that resembles beautiful sculptures and thus does not spoil an area close to housing, terraces, and cozy corners.

Exercising outdoors is becoming increasingly popular, and there are several good reasons for this. First and foremost, it is a fantastic way to enjoy nature while getting some exercise.

Outdoor durable fitness equipment at Danish school from NOORD
Schools and educational institutions want to activate students

It is often difficult to get older pupils to move and be physically active during recess. In Denmark, it is a legal requirement for all pupils to be physically active for 45 minutes during the school day.

With outdoor fitness equipment at schools and educational institutions, the schools make it possible and attractive for pupils to move and be active together during recess, sports lessons and outside school hours.

Danish school establishes outdoor fitness equipment from NOORD

The Danish primary school Vonsild Skole has a beautiful area with outdoor fitness equipment from NOORD. In one area of the school’s premises, they wanted to create a framework for activity and recreational areas for the school’s oldest grades. This area was to contain both places where those who just wanted to sit nearby and watch and socialize could be, and some activities for those who want to burn off some energy.

In a collaboration between the school’s management, a working group set up by the school and one of NOORD’s project managers, we have put together a functional and beautiful area that provides space for both physical activity and socialising.

The local area benefits from the exercise equipment

The area has the advantage of being located so that fitness exercisers and other locals can use it outside school opening hours, which was one of the goals of the new investments. The schools and educational institutions become part of the neighbourhood, even after school hours.
 
The school has succeeded in creating environments where young people enjoy hanging out and which are also used by local residents for post-run training or socialising in their free time.
 
The outdoor training equipment chosen for the area includes everything from our beautiful Monkey Bar, to pull-up bars, abdominal bench, parallel bars and many other pieces of equipment.
 

NOORD's tools do not signal play equipment and therefore attract the oldest students

School principal Peter Nordborg says: “I firmly believe that learning, play and activity come naturally when the facilities are there. The collaboration with NOORD supports the idea that the facilities should be inviting. Children can’t help but play if there are welcoming facilities. 

Older students will want to exercise and move if the facilities and environment are designed to motivate this age group. The beautiful design of NOORD’s equipment is crucial to the overall experience. This equipment does not signal playground equipment, it signals training that appeals to the older students, where it should be a little cool and different.”

At Roskilde Gymnasium in Denmark, the school has chosen to create an area with outdoor fitness equipment near the school’s hall and playing fields, so that during the summer months it is possible to incorporate the equipment into the sports lessons. 

The area is beautifully situated between pines and bushes, which frame the area in the finest way. Underneath the equipment, the school has chosen a rubber surface with its own logo as fall protection. The school’s area with outdoor fitness equipment consists of push-up bars, parallel bars, jump boxes in different heights and bars for triceps extensions.

 

Why schools and educational institutions should focus on movement

We are proud to present our range of outdoor equipment tailored towards schools and public institutions. By combining learning with movement, we can create a dynamic learning environment that not only benefits individual students and participants, but also strengthens the entire community.
 
By incorporating movement into teaching, it is possible to engage students in a more active and practical way. Studies show that movement based learning improves comprehension, memory and problem solving skills.
 
Short breaks for physical activity can also improve students’ concentration and attention. Providing equipment for outdoor play and movement can create opportunities for these important breaks during the school day.

Activity park for outdoor urban activity with elegant dainsh designed outdoor equipment

Svanemøllen – Activity park

Activity park for outdoor urban activity with elegant dainsh designed outdoor equipment
Facilities for activity park

In 2019, NOORD was invited to contribute to the Activity Ring at Svanemøllen. The aim was to create a project where “the design of play facilities and facilities for physical activity takes place through the design of urban nature optimised for play and movement as an integrated solution for the desired activities and training elements in urban nature.” Therefore, the choice fell on “Spirerne” – or in English “The Sprouts” –

which symbolises the power that arises in people when they exercise.

The Activity Park at Svanemøllen - Østre Gasværk district

An exciting task lay ahead of us when it became clear that NOORD would have to contribute to the new Activity Ring at Swan Mill in the Østre Gasværk quarter.

NOORD was allocated three areas – one to encourage exercise and various forms of physical activity, and the other two for relaxation, socialising, and resting.

In the initial phase, NOORD worked with Ramboll to propose a number of ideas for the use of the three areas. Ramboll was responsible for advising and delivering different proposals, while NOORD was responsible for designing the areas and creating 3D visualisations of the different options. Below are some of the first proposals for the training area at the Activity Ring.

Training area inspired by active urban nature with space for team training

The training area – the active area inspired by urban nature

With a brief to create an exercise area inspired by urban nature that encourages play and movement, we chose to place the exercise equipment at the edge of the allocated area to create an inviting, airy and inspiring exercise area. The chosen selection of equipment aimed to create an outdoor training area that can be used by everyone, regardless of gender, age and fitness level. An area where one can train alone, but also as a group in the form of circuit training, which is ideal for areas where several uniform pieces of equipment (several of the same model) are installed in a circular manner.

Air and free space for team training

The idea was to create a panna pitch in the centre of the area, which would be the focal point of the active area. A small football pitch, aimed more at the younger audience, but which could also be used by adults for activity, fun, and socialising. However, the panna court was later removed from the project as the area was intended for training muscle groups and not for cardio training, which involves running and increasing the heart rate on a football pitch. The client thought it would be better to create a more open area with space for group training, yoga and other lying exercises on the soft surface. For this surface, the choice fell on a rubber coating in petroleum blue. NOORD provided more than 300 m2 of this coating.

The choice of tools was chosen based on the layout of the area

After several different proposals for the layout of the area and the tools to be placed in it, the choice fell on a composition that provides a wide range of training opportunities for the users.

These 18 pieces of equipment ensure that all muscle groups of the body are exercised. And the instruction sign, Spirer Sign, provides inspiration for exercises on the various pieces of equipment, which include everything from NOORD’s elegant version of jump boxes in three different heights, to abdominal benches, bars of different heights – but of course all with the distinctive and elegant staggered bars of the Spirer series – to Pilates balls, sculptural TRX equipment and the beautiful and multifunctional Monkey Bar.

Focus on safety - we make it easy to comply with the European standard EN:16630

In addition to advising municipalities, housing associations, schools, and architects on the design of training areas and the placement of equipment, at NOORD we focus on making the design of training areas that comply with the applicable EU standards as simple and transparent as possible.

The European standard for permanently installed outdoor exercise equipment in public spaces is EN:16630, which focuses on fall zones and fall distances when designing an outdoor exercise area.

Read more about EN:16630 here

That’s why we at NOORD have made sure that the training equipment can easily be placed in a specific area without having to worry about whether it complies with the rules. For this purpose, we have marked fall sections and safety zones in our DWG files, which can be downloaded for each individual product under the “Training Equipment” tab.

Find the overview of our products here

Explanation of safety zones - blue and green circles

Our DWG files always show blue and green circles around our equipment. The blue circle illustrates the area of movement, the green the training space. In the installation manuals we show examples of what can and cannot overlap which lines. You can find an example of such an installation manual here

The circles are shown in our installation manuals, data sheets and DWG files that can be used in various drawing programmes. Contact us if the files do not work in your programme – we will find a solution.

At NOORD, we are proud to contribute to the project with the Activity Ring at Svanemøllen – Østre Gasværk Kvarteret and are pleased to have been involved all the way from idea over design to final implementation.

Outdoor durable fitness equipment in Potsdam Berlin made by NOORD
The square in Potsdam got outdoor fitness equipment from NOORD

At NOORD, we are delighted to be represented on this magnificent new town square in Potsdam, which is both a historic and modern space that ties history together and looks great! New and old blend together, elegantly utilising part of the public space to create a sculptural play and fitness area

In Potsdam, a new attractive city square was inaugurated in autumn 2022.

In Potsdam, a new attractive city square was inaugurated in autumn 2022.

The formerly dilapidated terrace restaurant Minsk from the GDR era, which was bought by Potsdam’s honorary mayor Professor Hasso Plattner and converted and expanded by his foundation into the art museum DAS MINSK, a museum of modern and GDR art, is once again recognisable. Of the original restaurant, only the roof and columns remain, the rest is new, but orientated towards the original architecture. The large window facade overlooks the city and the terrace has a café open to the public.

NOORD's outdoor elegant fitness equipment represented in the Berlin - Minsk terraces

"Das Minsk" is the reconstruction of the terrace restaurant from the GDR era

At the foot of the Minsk Museum, the Brauhausberg terraces have also been recreated in the style of the GDR model. The terraces form a beautiful entrance from the station to Brauhausberg and offer an unobstructed view of ‘Das Minsk’. Three large terraces with fountains, lawns and a playground have been created on the approximately 6,000 square metre area between the art museum “Das Minsk”, the swimming centre “blu” and the Leipziger Dreieck. Each of the lawns has a fountain in one corner and two further fountains flank the staircase to “Das Minsk”, creating a special entrance for visitors to the museum. The central square is now reminiscent of the square of the former GDR.  

Outdoor fitness equipment from NOORD adorns the terraces at the entrance

In front of the entrance to “Blu” there is a terrace-like play and fitness area. NOORD had the pleasure of supplying the outdoor training equipment for the new fitness area, which looks fantastic on the coloured surface, flanked by the green lawns and the “Blu”.

New Forensic Psychiatry has received safe fitness equipment for prisons

New Forensic Psychiatry at Sankt Hans in Roskilde

By Outdoor fitness park, Projects, Rooftop inspiration
New Forensic Psychiatry has received safe fitness equipment for prisons
New Forensic Psychiatry at Sankt Hans in Roskilde

An award-winning building was ready for inauguration in 2022. The Danish health building of the year 2022 was the forensic psychiatry at Sankt Hans in Roskilde.

NOORD Outdoor Fitness has delivered the fitness equipment and established the red running path – a wetpour rubber-covered path that winds through the activity garden – and the multi-track that will give patients the opportunity to be active together.

New Forensic Psychiatry at Sankt Hans in Roskilde

In 2014, NOORD was asked to make an offer for fitness equipment for the new forensic psychiatry unit at Sankt Hans in Roskilde – a fantastic project on an area that is 20,600 m2 large and with room for 126 patients. This project has been planned with the WHOLE person in mind. The intention was to create a high-security place that also felt homely and welcoming, with a high degree of freedom of movement, good exercise opportunities, all of which should help promote patients’ healing and enable them to return to society as soon as possible. We did of course want to be part of such a project!

The choice fell on NOORD’s fitness products partly because of their aesthetic, sculptural appearance, but also because they are made without moving parts. There are no screws, bolts or anything else that can be removed from the fitness equipment to be used as a weapon. Furthermore, the equipment requires minimal maintenance and is easy to mount. View our full range of outdoor fitness equipment.

It obviously takes time to make a project as big as Sankt Hans, but in April 2018 construction started and on October 7th 2021 the new Sankt Hans was inaugurated. Because of the beautiful view over Roskilde Fjord and the many green areas, the staff call it “The View”.

Residential Areas

At the end of 2021, the first patients moved into the new Sankt Hans. They are enjoying a bright, airy and welcoming building, plenty of nature, views of the sky – also from inside the buildings – as well as the fact that each of the eight bed sections has a cozy little oasis of a courtyard with a variety of plants. The courtyard also has a blue “lake” of rubber covering lighting up amidst the greenery. Two pieces of NOORD’s training equipment, “Spirer 700” and “Spirer 1800”, are installed on this blue lake.

New Forensic Psychiatry has gotten new safe fitness equipment with activity garden

Activity Garden

In the center of the settlement, one finds the large activity garden, which is intended as a recreational area with plenty of space for both motions, socializing or maybe even a quiet moment alone sitting on or in one of the garden’s works of art, just enjoying the view and letting thoughts flow? In the future, it will be possible to make small raised beds on which patients with green fingers can develop their skills.

Around and through the activity garden, the red running track winds its way through the area… across lawns, past bronze sculptures and through the garden’s varied planting, past the large fitness area on the covered terrace and on past the football pitch/basketball court on the blue rubber surface at one end of the garden.

The fitness area on the covered terrace also offers several possibilities for training – among others NOORD Outdoor Fitness has supplied our fitness equipment “Spirer 110”, “Spirer 900”, “Spirer Incline Bench” and “Spirer Monkey” for this area. We have also purchased and supplied exercise bikes and other exercise equipment and had them colored to match our products.

We at NOORD Outdoor Fitness are both pleased and proud to have participated in this unique project and for the collaboration with the talented architects.
