Description
Working alongside the highly experienced team at Hydrospec, Solus were delighted to supply more than 700m2 of technical pool tiles to the recently refurbished Fairfield Leisure centre in Dartford. The project, which was part of a vast redevelopment of the aging 40-year-old facility, began at the end of March 2014, when the centre operators contract expired, and the doors were closed to the public.
Tiles Used
Tiles from highly practical Technical Pool range.
Outcome
Along with a beautifully appointed 25 metre, six lane flagship pool, the leisure centre also offers a poolside sauna, a diving area, a smaller training pool, a 95 station gym, exercise studios and a new cafe.
The main contractor on the project was Willmott Dixon and Hydrospec carried out the design and refurbishment of the pool and teaching pool.
Hydrospec selected highly technical, specialist swimming pool tiles from the Technical Pool range.
Manufactured to incredibly exacting standards, with the most advanced production processes, these tiles are ideal for both heavily used commercial projects and stylish residential swimming pools.
More than 480m2 of 125x250mm icy white friction finish tiles were laid in the swimming pool tanks along with matching satin finish tiles, quadrants and corner caps.
Other products included beige and black pin head tiles, which offer superior slip resistance and a range of complementary blue tiles in varying shades.
In addition, a bespoke access staircase was built into the pool, which was also clad with tiles from the Technical Pool range.
