read moreInnovative thinking from Vortex Aquatic Playgrounds has created the ultimate backyard sprinkler - only bigger, better, and in a park setting, where everyone can play.
The Vortex Splashpad® is a zero-depth aquatic facility where patrons can enjoy interactive play elements such as spray features, slides, tipping buckets, fountains, jets and mists within an area that drains the surface water away. The zero-depth design removes the need for lifeguards and safety fencing, as any drowning hazard is completely removed.
Splashpads are a welcome addition to council parks, tourist facilities, shopping centres and holiday resorts across Australia and New Zealand, with aquatic facility managers, parks and recreation officials and private businesses are seeing the benefits of these cost-effective, innovative and sustainable ways to entertain families and children of all ages and abilities.
Built with interactive play features and future expansion opportunities, these safe aquatic outdoor experiences are known for their cost-efficiency, ability to increase park attendance and revenues (when used in 'pay for play' situations).
With their sero-depth design, the Vortex Splashpad is able to appeal to a diverse range of people, including those with physical or mental disabilities that may ordinarily prevent them from enjoying aquatic play.
A new player on the Australian-scene, Vortex have an international reputation, having designed and developed more than 6,000 Splashpads, pool playgrounds and urban water features over their 17 year history.
Recognised as a world leader in Splashpad design and manufacture, and boasting prominent international clients such as Walt Disney Resorts, Marriott Hotels, Hilton Hotels, and the Ritz Carlton Hotel Chain, as well as councils, zoos, shopping centres and amusement parks, Vortex have the experience to help you achieve an aquaticplayground that is cost-effective, healthy, attractive to visitors and easy to maintain.
Of course pretty features and smart play elements are only part of the Vortex aquatic playgrounds package. Major factors in the decision to install a Splashpad include: running cost, water quality management and minimal maintenance, all areas that Vortex aquatic playgrounds lead the industry.
Behind the scenes of the Vortex Splashpad® are technologically advanced control and water maintenance systems that run to high operational efficiencies that are specifically designed and built to address the specific needs of the Splashpad environment.
The Western Australian Department of Health is about to published guidelines that enforce operating requirements regarding the water quality management, water treatment, water circulation and operational requirements for Spashpads constructed in Western Australia.
All Vortex Splashpads® exceed these operational requirements giving full peace of mind with regard to compliance when purchasing a Vortex Aquatic Playground.
Vortex Aquatic Playgrounds are distributed by by Playrope Pty Ltd in Australia and New Zealand.
