Parameters used for the Report


One of Fluidra’s goals, which it set out to tackle a few years ago, was to extend its Sustainability Report to give it a more international scope. However, we are still working out the best way of collecting all of the information necessary to do this from all of the companies in the Group.


Most of the information that appears in this Integrated Re- port is very similar to that in the 2010 Sustainability Report. Nevertheless, the format has been modified to give a more general overview of our activities to our stakeholders in a single document that also discusses our strategies in grea- ter detail. The only change that has taken place was the takeover of the companies Servaqua and Meip by Poltank and GRE, respectively, both of which belong to the Fluidra Group. The latest figures reported by them also include the figures for the companies taken over and they can therefo- re be fully compared with the figures of the previous years. This report covers 93% of the companies based in Spain. [3.2, 3.7, 3.10]

figures. The reason behind this was to give an overview of the Group rather than a breakdown of the companies that belong to it.


The Report, which is submitted on an annual basis by Fluidra, is based on the GRI international standard. Its con- tents therefore take into account the principle of materia- lity, which means that factors are identified following their analysis and the impact they have, our relationship with our stakeholders, and an analysis of opportunities and risks. Our last report for the 2010 business year is posted with all other reports on our corporate website at www.fluidra.com. [3.3, 3.5, 4.15]


For the 2011 business year, Fluidra reported its figures fo- llowing the methodology used in previous years, namely, through an internal management system whereby the companies in the Group report the figures requested of them by the people responsible for compiling them. This year we substituted the annual face-to-face preliminary meeting between the people responsible for compiling figures for a virtual meeting in order to save time and re- sources. By doing so, we managed to save approximately 1 tonne of CO2


by cutting out the travel of its participants. [3.1, 3.9, 3.11]


The Report’s coverage does not include joint ventures, sub- sidiaries, rented installations, subcontracted activities and other entities that could affect the comparability of the re- port. [3.8]
