Discover The Conquest Difference
We’ve been experts in fibreglass manufacturing for almost 50 years. Read below to find information on the quality of our pools.
Sizing: Small Pools (4 – 7.5m)
Quality Of Raw Materials
The materials we select are selected without compromise. Polycor® gelcoats are marine grade isophthalic/NPG chemistry, our vinyl ester resin is pure Bisphenol-A vinyl ester, our structural laminate resin is exactly that – purposely formulated structural resin and our sealing cream coat is applied thick and generous.
Courtesy of our own high standards, Conquest exceed the stringent requirements of the Australian Standard. AS1838:1994: Swimming Pools – Premoulded fibre-reinforced plastics design and fabrication.
| FRP Laminate Conquest Pool Sample | 18570 | 101.86 | 9266 | 35.54 |
| Competitor Ceramic Composite Laminate | 15510 | 66.21 | 7736 | 28.09 |
| % Variation | 19.7% | 53.8% | 19.8% | 26.5% |
What Does This Mean?
An engineering examination of both these laminates indicates that both laminates are suitable for in-ground swimming pools with correct installation.
However, clearly any statement that suggests the “ceramic” laminate is stronger is incorrect. Even though the ceramic laminate is 2.0mm thicker, the properties of the standard FRP laminate exceed the ceramic laminate in all test areas.
19.7% Better Mean Average Load
The FRP laminate showed that the mean average load for the test was 19.7% higher than a competitor's ceramic laminate.
53.8% Better Tensile Strength
The tensile result of the FRP laminate was 53.8% higher than a competitor's ceramic laminate.
19.8% Better Stiffness
The FRP laminate has 19.8% higher result in stiffness than a competitor's ceramic laminate, this is the impact factor.
26.5% Better Flexural Property
Flexural – this property in the FRP laminate is 26.5% higher than the ceramic laminate.
No Stacked Transport.
We’re the only pool manufacturer in Victoria to only transport one pool at a time on the truck. This prevents micro-cracks from forming in the fibreglass and also allows us to pre-plumb the pools before we place them into the ground.
The advantages to this method:
Durable plumbing due to the plumbing being fibreglassed to the pool itself
Prevention of micro-cracks due to transport
Pre- Plumbed.
Our transport method enables us to securely install and connect the plumbing system to the pool structure prior to transportation, ensuring that all necessary fixtures and connections are in place and functional upon arrival.
