Why Choose Leisure Pools: The Ultimate Fiberglass Pool Experience for Your Backyard Oasis

When you’re ready to transform your backyard into a stunning outdoor retreat, choosing the right fiberglass pool manufacturer makes all the difference. So why choose Leisure Pools? Founded in Australia in 2000, Leisure Pools has spent over two decades perfecting it fiberglass pool technology under some of the world’s most challenging conditions. With 25 years of innovation and excellence in fiberglass pool manufacturing, Leisure Pools stands as the industry leader, combining cutting-edge technology with unmatched craftsmanship to deliver swimming pools that exceed expectations in every way.

Leisure Pools’ story began in Australia in 2000, where the company developed its revolutionary pool technology under some of the world’s most punishing environmental conditions. The extreme heat, intense UV radiation and challenging climate of the Australian continent became our testing ground, as well as our competitive advantage.

When you design pools to withstand the blistering Australian sun and temperature extremes that can reach well over 100°F (40°C), you create products that will excel anywhere in the world. This harsh environment pushed our engineers to develop superior materials and construction methods that simply weren’t necessary for manufacturers in more temperate climates.

The result is pool technology that doesn’t just meet industry standards—it exceeds them by a significant margin. If a fiberglass pool from Leisure Pools can maintain its structural integrity and stunning appearance through decades of Australian summers, you can trust it will perform flawlessly in your backyard, regardless of your local climate conditions.

What sets Leisure Pools apart isn’t just our decades of experience—it’s our unwavering commitment to engineering excellence and innovative materials that create pools built to last a lifetime. When you choose Leisure Pools, you’re investing in a swimming pool that represents the pinnacle of fiberglass technology and design sophistication.

At the heart of every Leisure Pool lies our patented Composite Armour™ Core of Strength—a revolutionary advancement that represents the highest level of technology in composite swimming pool manufacturing. This isn’t just marketing speak; it’s breakthrough engineering that transforms how fiberglass pools are built.

Our Composite Armour™ features a carefully woven, patented blend of three high-performance fibers that are trusted in the most demanding applications:

• DuPont™ Kevlar® provides exceptional bend strength without stretching or shrinking, delivering incredible resistance to stress and fatigue
• Carbon Fiber organizes carbon atoms into a crystalline structure, producing a strength-to-weight ratio higher than steel and titanium
• Basalt Fiber made from volcanic lava rock offers naturally superior compression strength with increased resistance to fracture

These same materials protect military vehicles, create bulletproof vests, and power wind turbines. When strategically embedded within vinyl ester resin-reinforced fiberglass, they form a composite matrix designed to leverage stability against external pressures, ensuring your pool maintains its structural integrity for decades.

Beyond the shell itself, every integrated feature of your Leisure Pool—from entry steps to benches, spa sides and splash pads—receives additional Composite Armour™ reinforcement. The result is a pool that feels incredibly solid under every step, providing sure-footed confidence throughout your swimming experience.

While many manufacturers cut corners with cheaper polyester resins, Leisure Pools uses our proprietary Vipoxy vinyl ester resin throughout the entire manufacturing process. This isn’t just a protective barrier—it’s a fundamental commitment to quality that makes a dramatic difference in your pool’s longevity.

Resin comprises nearly 70% of a fiberglass pool shell’s makeup, making material quality absolutely critical. Our vinyl ester resin construction offers several key advantages:

• Less sensitivity to ambient conditions during manufacturing
• Superior bonding between layers
• Reduced likelihood of stress cracking
• Fewer open cavities within the molecular chain that could trap water

Many manufacturers use a single layer of vinyl ester resin as a protective barrier while filling bulk layers with cheaper polyester resin. This cost-cutting approach still leaves pools susceptible to osmosis—a condition where groundwater penetrates through laminate layers, creating bubbles that can eventually compromise structural integrity.

Leisure Pools uses vinyl ester resin throughout our construction process, providing complete protection against osmosis and giving us the utmost confidence in our product’s long-term performance.

Your pool’s finish represents what you’ll see and experience every day, which is why Leisure Pools exclusively uses AQUAGUARD®X gelcoat from Allnex, the leading global company for industrial coating resins. This superior surface treatment has delivered outstanding satisfaction to customers worldwide for over 15 years.

AQUAGUARD®X provides exceptional resistance to UV rays, chemicals, and blistering—proven through decades of performance under the extreme conditions of the Australian climate where Leisure Pools originated. This superior surface treatment was literally forged in the fires of one of the world’s harshest pool environments, making it exceptionally durable for any climate you might encounter. The result is a mesmerizing surface that shimmers like a radiant cut diamond, creating brilliant light displays across your backyard while maintaining its beauty year after year.

Creating our pools begins with meticulous attention to detail that continues throughout our environment-controlled manufacturing process. Our stringent quality control measures include:

• Batch testing of raw materials for flexural and tensile strength
• Cure percentage verification
• Barcol hardness testing
• Burn and boil limit assessments
• Precise thickness inspections at multiple locations on every shell

Each pool shell undergoes thorough inspection before leaving our facility, ensuring it meets our exacting standards for structural integrity and finish quality.

Leisure Pools offers the industry’s most sophisticated range of designs, created to fit virtually any need and complement any backyard aesthetic. Our extensive collection ensures you’ll find the perfect pool to match your vision while incorporating the latest innovations in pool technology and functionality.
