Springfree Trampoline Australia's Sunshine Coast team proudly hold their Australian International Design Award.

Springfree™ Trampoline received one of the highest accolades in design excellence on Friday Night at the 2009 Australian International Design Awards Gala Event held in Melbourne. Winning the Design Award in the Sport & Leisure category, this award reflects the innovative and revolutionary design that is the Springfree™ Trampoline.
The Australian International Design Awards, a division of Standards Australia, is recognised by the Commonwealth Government and the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design, as Australia’s peak design assessment and promotion body, and for its important role in fostering a culture of design and innovation in Australia.
The Springfree™ Trampoline’s design process spanned 14 years, and incorporated millions of dollars in research and testing before the product was ready for sale to the public. Springfree™ engineers worked tirelessly with the objective to ensure superior trampoline safety; what was delivered was the world’s safest trampoline through a unique design removing all the impact zones associated with traditional trampolines.
The Award nominees for the International Design Awards go through thorough testing and assessment by Australian and international design experts in determining their award winners. The judges spend a week scrutinising all entries against rigorous criteria including innovation, visual/emotional appeal, functionality, quality and manufacture, ergonomics and safety, environmental sustainability and presentation.
Doug Hill, Regional Director of Springfree Trampoline said, “We’re delighted to receive such recognition. Standards Australia sets the benchmark in this country, and being honoured by this esteemed organisation recognises the many years of hard work and commitment by our team. Springfree™ is now effectively the benchmark by which all other trampolines should be measured.”
“The Springfree™ Trampoline was created by not only a world-class engineer but a devoted father whose wife refused to allow their kids to jump on the dangerous old-style trampoline. Dr Keith Alexander created a design brilliant in functionality, outstanding in its visual aesthetics and superior in its quality and ultimately keeps our children safe, which is its best asset of all.”
