The Australian Business Awards are a national program honouring organisations that demonstrate the core values of product excellence, sustainability and commercial success in their respective industries.

Springfree™ Trampoline was awarded as the 2010 winner for Product Innovation following an assessment on product performance, technology, visual appeal, cost-effectiveness, benefits to the user, sustainability and compliance.

Springfree™ Trampoline is the only trampoline design that has effectively removed the risk of product induced injury. With over 200,000 kids injured worldwide each year on spring-based trampoline designs (an estimated 9 – 16 thousand Australian kids), for every 15 Springfree ™Trampoline’s sold in the marketplace, one child is kept out of hospital.

Tara Johnston, Program Director of the Australian Business Awards, commended the achievements of all Winners saying: “The standard of entries for 2010 has underpinned the strength of the Australian economy and provides a welcome opportunity for organisations committed to business and product excellence to receive the recognition they deserve. Congratulations to all the Winners for achieving exceptional results in their respective categories.”

This award joins a host of other national and international accolades such as ‘Product of the Year’ in Canada and the USA, as well as the Australian International Design Award received in 2009.

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.

If you are yet to experience the bounce you can achieve on the SF68, let me tell you a little of why it is SO good to be Square.

· In its 10.5m2 jumping surface, it has a total of 5 sweets spots making the jumping super responsive

· The new shape lets jumpers get a good bounce right out towards the round corners, increasing useable jumping area by around 15%

· A smaller area is required to install this model, making more room for Adults entertaining areas

· Lighter customers also said the bounce on the SF90 was a bit stiff, so we have created a slightly softer bounce on the SF68, meaning the littlies will enjoy just as much as the biggies!

· It its stylish black and white design, it is one very classy edition to your backyard

‘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.
