DEHN PROTECTION South Africa recently extended the protection of the young attendees of the St Melanie’s Day-care and Pre-school in Pretoria,
Gauteng, with the donation of much-needed sunshades for the outside play area, as well as a main gate for the school. Alexis Barwise, managing
director of DEHN PROTECTION South Africa, along with Dr Philipp Dehn, chief executive officer of the DEHN group and Bernhard Stadlmann,
international sales senior executive at DEHN+SÖHNE, were on hand to assist with the installation of the new equipment as well as to enjoy the
playground with the kids. Says Barwise: “By
assisting St Melanie’s with this donation,
DEHN has helped ensure that the school’s
pupils now have access to a much safer
outside environment, both in terms of pro-
viding a more secure playground as well as
protection from the heat of the sun.”
