When designing the interior, i-Jump needed to create a practical and easily managed space while still being fun. In order to achieve this, i-Jump has covered the walls using Norbord’s revered SterlingOSB Zero. It is the UK’s only manufactured OSB that doesn’t contain any added formaldehyde making this an ideal choice for somewhere like i-Jump. Stephi Grayson iJump’s Operations Manager has described the versatility of SterlingOSB Zero as one of its most unique features. With its high adrenaline atmosphere i-Jump has benefitted greatly from the use of a material that Stephi has described as “totally self sufficient and effective”. Now that the decoration itself is completed Stephi, her colleagues and all their enthusiastic customers can simply enjoy the inviting appearance of the park without having to worry about degradation and upkeep.
