Commercial pool and aquatics construction firm, Hydrilla has achieved outstanding results at the 2021 South Australian Swimming Pool and Spa (SPASA) Awards of Excellence being acclaimed with five Gold Awards and two Highly Commended recognitions.
Presented at a Gala Dinner last Friday (4th June), the wins cap off an outstanding few years of growth for the Adelaide-based company who have reinvigorated their management team and, as of September last year, undergone a comprehensive rebrand.
Thrilled with the company’s achievements being recognised by their peers and the wider aquatics industry, Hydrilla General Manager, Himal Kandel stated “the SPASA awards are a great way to demonstrate our technical capabilities and showcase the incredible pools we build. Our staff, clients and project partners are thrilled with our results for 2021.
“We build long-term connections with our clients and it’s always such a pleasure to let them know the pool they love has received an industry award.”

Hydrilla will now compete with other state winners (to be announced in the coming weeks) at the National Awards in August during the SPLASH! Expo.
