New Australasian leader and Sydney office announced for Waterplay

New Australasian leader and Sydney office announced for Waterplay
November 22, 2024

Canadian splashpad manufacturer, Waterplay, has announced an expansion that sees the aquatic play experts open a new office in Sydney having brought an impressive Australian team on board.

Waterplay has more than 200 splash pad installations in Australia and the Waterplay team are enthusiastic about the expansion.

Chris Bowser will lead a new division in Australasia, bringing with him nearly two decades of extensive experience selling and installing Waterplay’s premier splashpad products.

Formerly the Waterplay Product Manager at Parkequip, Bowser’s new role as General Manager Waterplay Australasia will see him strengthen ties even closer with the Waterplay team in North America.

Waterplay and Bowser will continue to support Parkequip projects as they transition their business.  

The Waterplay team based in Sydney will be supported by its agency partners Urban Play and Dynamic Playgrounds, as well as selling directly in select markets across the country.

With manufacturing capabilities in Australia, Waterplay customers will benefit from enhanced service and select Australian-made products, strengthening the company’s global reach and local impact.  

Bowser enthused “there is no better product than that manufactured by Waterplay and communities across Australia will benefit from this incredible partnership. I’ve been selling Waterplay for more than a decade and to become a part of the Waterplay team is something I’m beyond excited about.”

With over 30 years of industry experience, Waterplay creates aquatic environments that engage communities, activate public spaces, and promote inclusive play. Waterplay's commitment to innovation, quality, and sustainability ensures that every splash pad they create delivers exceptional value and lasting enjoyment.
