PlayCore company history timeline

1992

Once only available through lumber yards, by 1992 the company's products could be purchased through a number of different home center stores--a total of more than 6,000 retail outlets--including 19 of the 20 largest home center chains with operations throughout the United States.

Perhaps the best news for those individuals, especially the Baers, who were instrumental in establishing the company, came when Swing-N-Slide became a public company in 1992.

1996

Even more disappointing was the net sales total for 1996--$41 million.

1998

In May of 1998 Contino convinced the board of directors to approve the purchase of Pentes Play, Inc., one of America's leading designers and marketers of indoor soft-contained play equipment.

Operating income and profitability also increased substantially during the first six months of 1998.
