Karen Cockburn demonstrated her skills on the Springfree Trampoline at the Awards Ceremony

At the prestigious Awards Ceremony in Toronto, Springfree™ Trampoline has been recognised as the judge’s number one choice on top of our category crown.  A huge Honour.

‘Product of the Year’ is one of the largest polls on product innovation. The field nominees are narrowed down by a panel of industry judges and consumers ultimately determine the winners.

Steven Holmes, CEO of Springfree™ Trampoline, says it’s a huge honour to bear this designation and to be reconignised by consumers.

“ We were honored to win in our category, so to then find out we were the overall judges choice was amazing”.

Springfree™ Trampoline is celebrating all around the world tonight about this globally recognised award”, Holmes concluded.

‘Product of the Year’ is one of the largest polls on product innovation. TNS Canadian Facts, the world’s formost custom research firm will conduct the study, utilising over 12,000 consumers to determine which companies and products will be honoured.

The award aims to help consumers make the right decision when buying items and encourage companies to make better products for consumers.

Springfree ™Trampoline prides itself on product innovation, eliminating from its design all the impact zones associated with equipment induced injuries on traditional trampolines.

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.  Designers worked tirelessly with the objective to ensure superior trampoline safety.

Winners of the 2010 Product of the Year title will be announced at the Awards Night in January 2010 in Toronto. The Awards Night is much more than an awards ceremony – it’s a celebration of innovation and ingenuity.

So stay tuned to hear how Springfree™ Trampoline fares in its entry for this highly sought after award…

Established in 1978, The Foundation is the nation’s oldest nonprofit guide to quality children’s media and toys and is trusted by parents for their objectivity, respect, and expertise in child learning and development, helping make informed decision about the right products for their children.

According to the Foundation, Trampolines were not usually recommended however the Springfree™ Trampoline’s unique design has changed history.

Although our judges are not in the habit of awarding trampolines, the Springfree™ Trampoline had so many unique safety features that they couldn’t deny.  Our testers, ranging in age from six to sixty-six, found skills they hadn’t known, confidence that needed reawakening, and a hefty dose of much needed family fun.  If your family has been thinking about a trampoline, this is highly recommended and worth serious consideration.

This Award reflects Springfree™ Trampoline’s commitment to safety and innovation and is a testament of parent’s belief in choosing the safest products for their children. Trampolines provide so many developmental and health benefits but until the Springfree™ Trampoline the benefits were outweighed by the risk.
