The event brings together manufacturers, leading innovations from the industry and their distributors / retailers, pool and spa builders/ fitters, architects, landscape architects, specifiers, private and public authorities. In 2012, more than 600 exhibitors from 35 countries and 1,167 brands were represented, with

Piscine Global showcasing the sector’s most comprehensive offering to 18,000 visitors from 90 countries. This year, Piscine Global is expecting a wide variety of high-calibre visitors including specialists in outdoor development and in particular many landscaping professionals, who, because of changes in the market and demands from private pool owners, are increasingly teaming up with pool fitters to offer customers a comprehensive service. Inevitably, much attention at the show will focus on products that display technical innovation and environmental benefits to meet the current challenges of the market and that are in tune with the needs and
expectations of customers who are anxious about energy consumption. One hundred and twenty new products are expected to make their debuts in Lyon with a large number of these being unveiled in a world premiere! Embracing and showcasing this innovation is at the heart of Piscine Global’s ‘know-how’ and approximately 100 technical or eco-friendly innovations are launched during the show. All the products presented compete for the Top 100 or the Pool Eco Attitude Innovation Trophies. The winners receive their awards during a gala dinner held on the opening day. Lastly, the partnerships established with the sector’s most renowned professional federations and specialised media are a token of Piscine Global’s quality and know-how and round off the show’s complete offering.

Divided into three sections, visitors will draw inspiration from the latest trends and discover a comprehensive range of products such as terraces, furniture, lighting, showers, paving, natural stone and other decorative features for enhancing their pool in its natural environment.
