read moreThe benefits of moveable bulkheads, which enable 50 metre swimming pools to be reconfigured to accommodate a variety of water activities simultaneously within separate areas, are widely known by aquatic facility managers.
Increasing the utilisation of a facility and its financial performance, fibreglass bulkheads - also known as booms - are accepted as being made of the most effective material, avoiding with corrosion and water deflection issues associated with materials such as aluminium and stainless steel constructions.
Industry-leading Stark fibreglass bulkheads, made without any internal stainless steel or aluminium components, not only eliminate the problems of corrosion but, as they are built as one-piece unit, provide a stronger, lighter and more aesthetically pleasing product with no deflection issues.
Stark is the largest manufacturer of fibreglass bulkheads in the world - supplying bulkheads globally for major swimming events including Olympic Games, Commonwealth Games and Australian Championships.
Since the production of its earliest units in the 1960s, Stark has continued to refine and develop its designs - by incorporating moulded fibreglass buoyancy tanks for easier repositioning. Other features include non-slip finish on the top of the unit and on the targets to provide improved grip. Timing trays, starting block anchors, flow through lane ropes and many other features have also been developed to improve pool programming options.
Ceramic Solutions are the exclusive distributors for Stark bulkheads within Australia.
Oliver Huss, Managing Director of Ceramic Solutions, who has more than 20 years experience in the aquatic and recreation industry, understands the OH&S issues aquatic centres are confronted with and how Stark bulkheads help reduce such issues.
Huss explains “slips and trips are always a major concern with young children, a bulkhead that doesn’t impede upon the concourse reduces the likelihood of injury.
“Having installed 12 bulkheads in the last 10 years, I am delighted in the performance of the products.
“Unlike other systems, Stark bulkheads are simple to operate and take up very little space out-side the pool.
“This is particularly important if the walkway surrounding the pool is not very wide.”
In many local councils, the aquatic centre can be a community’s largest asset and a bulkhead encourages participation in multiple water activities.
Stark bulkheads are custom built to suit each pool and recognised as the benchmark for quality fibreglass products in aquatics, with all bulkheads manufactured with a 22 year structural warranty.
