Other Case Studies:

This tired, outdated pool was replaced with a 25m pool that boasts squad training facilities.

Baldwin Aquatic was commissioned to construct a new 25m pool at Padua College in Brisbane’s inner north, to replace the tired, leaking original. The new pool, which was constructed on the original site, now has 8 lanes and provides a facility for squad training, as well as learn-to-swim and physical education classes. Metz vitrified tiles were used on the wet decks, hobs, waterline, lanes and targets, with 1-2mm pebblecrete providing a cost-effective, durable interior surface.
