Olympic Aquatic Center, London, United Kingdom

Opgeleverd 2012

In 2012 the Olympics were held in London, United Kingdom. Variopool has delivered and installed a horizontal bulkhead and a vertical bulkhead in the competition pool of the Olympic Centre. Besides that we also installed a movable pool floor in the competition pool. Because of the combination of these products the swimming pool can also be used after the Olympics. This swimming pool is multifunctional!

In the training pool of the Olympic Aquatic Center we installed two movable pool floors and two vertical bulkheads. For this huge Olympic project we won the “Best Quality Award” as best supplier. We are so proud! In 2024 we are also involved in the Aquatics Centre in Saint-Denis.
