Valentina Tripp, Managing Director APAC of Fluidra enthused “we are thrilled to welcome Chadson to the Fluidra team. Their impressive range of products and their track record of innovation and excellence will significantly enhance our ability to serve our customers throughout the Asia Pacific region.”

Peter Hobson, founder and Chief Executive of Chadson Engineering, added “joining forces with Fluidra represents a new chapter of growth and opportunity for Chadson. We look forward to leveraging our combined strengths to achieve greater success in the APAC region.”
