The pool industry faces significant challenges related to sustainability, such as energy efficiency and optimising water use, as well as complying with stricter environmental and safety regulations. We are also witnessing a growing demand for personalised and memorable experiences, forcing companies to innovate in design and service and to focus on digitalisation and automation to improve the user experience, while ensuring safety in the facilities. In this context, the next 8, 9 and 10 October arrives in Malaga PiscinaSpain, the new biennial event dedicated to boosting digitalisation and water management in the pool and spa sector.
The event is expected to bring together more than 7,000 professionals The event will be attended by a wide range of sector professionals such as swimming pool builders, developers, installers, constructors, architects, as well as hoteliers and municipal bodies who will be looking for an industrial and technological partner to help them meet their needs for the design, purchase, construction, maintenance and refurbishment of private, community and public swimming pools, spas, wellness and outdoor swimming pools.
For three days, PiscinaSpain will not only be the key meeting point for discovering the latest in technology and solutions for pools and spas, but also the stage where leaders from the main industries will share their ideas and success stories.
