 SOUTH PACIFIC POOL ENCLOSURES

 

South Pacific Pool Enclosures was established in 2007 soon after we saw Alukov’s amazing products at a home and garden expo in the Czech Republic. On our travels around Europe that year we noticed Alukov’s pool covers and enclosures in many residential properties. We also discovered that European accommodation providers, cafes, restaurants, and hotels invested in pool and hospitality enclosures to better cater for their guests across all four seasons of the year.

We decided to take the plunge and team up with Alukov to bring European pool covers, pool enclosures, spa domes and patio and hospitality enclosures to New Zealand, and South Pacific Pool Enclosures was born.

Our first project at a Swim School in Muriwai, is still our largest to date, a 33 metre long by 14 metre wide High-Line pool enclosure that transformed a seasonal swim school business into a thriving all year-round hub for private swimming lessons, public swimming and fitness classes. Muriwai achieved ‘proof of concept’ and gave us the inspiration and confidence to tackle any cover or enclosure project.

Now 17 years on, our team has completed over 100 projects across New Zealand from the far north to the deep south, and everywhere in between. It has been a great pleasure to meet so many wonderful people along the way.  We enjoy hearing such wonderful stories from our clients about the positive impact our products are having on their lifestyle, health and fitness, social connection with family and friends, and reduction in heating, cleaning and maintenance costs.

We are immensely proud of our school pool cover enclosure projects. There are schools in Wellington, Hamilton and Christchurch where thousands of students learn to swim, enjoy water-based competition, fun and fitness and develop vital swimming and water safety skills under our pool covers. Each school generates revenue from community activities which include leasing to private swim schools, public swimming hours, sports practises, and functions.

Enjoy browsing our website and developing ideas for your bespoke cover or enclosure.
