Fluidra, one of the aquatic industry’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of residential and commercial equipment and parts, has announced the acquisition of Chadson Engineering, a leader in design and manufacture of granular and regenerative filtration systems.

The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to complete in the fourth quarter of 2024.

The acquisition complements Fluidra’s commercial pool and wellness business and enhances its ability to offer a wide range of solutions to customers across the Asia Pacific region.

With over 50 years of experience, Chadson has been Australia’s leading manufacturer of commercial filtration systems for swimming pools, water theme parks, marine parks, aquaculture, and other sectors. Chadson is based in the city of Perth, Western Australia.

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.”

Both Fluidra and Chadson are committed to ensuring a smooth transition while upholding the high standards of service and quality that their customers have come to expect.
