Swimming Pool Scene SPATEX REVIEW
Strength To Strength Visitors fl ocked to the Certikin stand at SPATEX 2017. The Caldera Spas Utopia Series Cantabria drew a lot of attention, as did the new Dolphin fl oor cleaner – the Wave 200. The ground breaking, super lightweight OC-1 fi lter media, launched early 2016, is going from strength to strength and the introduction of two new complimentary OC-1 fi lters for the commercial and domestic markets has reinforced interest further.
Cath Saunders, Marketing Manager says: “We had a very successful show from start to fi nish with lots of new leads to follow up. We are already looking forward to next year.” Managing Director, Neil Murray added: “SPATEX was a great success. Well done Michele and the rest of the team.” Certikin

under 500 delegates attended the seminars over the three days, over six per cent up on 2016 and, by way of another comparison, a staggering 42 per cent up on the very respectable attendance fi gures from 2012, just fi ve years ago. “All sessions of this year’s very varied programme were well- attended and, once again, the evidence shows how the increasing thirst for knowledge and training has helped to make the ISPE workshop programme an integral part of the SPATEX success story,” commented Show Organiser Michele Bridle. Although footfall was slightly down on last year, many exhibitors came away with strong sales leads on the back of quality enquiries.
Latest Innovations
Golden Coast put its best foot forward at SPATEX 2017, showcasing its latest innovations, as well as a host of product lines that keep customers coming back again and again.
Dura Pro heat pumps and Adagio Pro lighting systems were two of the latest additions on show as well as the Waterway’s robust spa steps and the Visionlift range of cover lifters. Golden Coast also launched Crystal, its automatic dosing support system. Designed to take the hassle out of automatic dosing, installation, maintenance and repairs, it gives installers the option of outsourcing this work; from specifying and fi tting systems right through to delivering routine maintenance.

Ultimate Pool Control SPATEX 2017 was a great showcase event for Gaffey and generated some very good enquiries for the team. Andrew
Gaffey, Technical
Director at Gaffey commented: “Our new Hyprolyser iSEC® electrochlorinators and chloriDES® pool controllers drew a lot of interest on our stand, particularly with being the fi rst time they were on show in the UK. “We have not exhibited at SPATEX for a few years so we decided to invest in a larger and brighter stand to create a clearer message of what we do, and I think it came off really well for us. The technical seminars and after show party also offered great networking opportunities too.” Gaffey Technical Services

Jamie Adams of Golden Coast commented: “SPATEX is a superb platform for us to showcase a range of new product innovations, catch up with customers and make valuable new contacts. “Footfall may have been slightly down but the quality of visitors was certainly up and we came away with a healthy crop of enquires to develop. For anyone in the water leisure industry make sure you add next year’s dates to your diary as the show really has come of age.”
The dates for 2018 edition of the show have been confi rmed as
Tuesday January 30th to Thursday February 1st inclusive. For more information, visit
