Vinyl Ester Resin Construction
High performance, corrosion resistant
Resin is the most concentrate ingredient in a fiberglass pool shell, comprising almost 70% of the makeup.
Material Quality Makes A Difference
As a superior alternative to the industry standard polyester resin, Vinyl Ester Resin is less sensitive to ambient conditions, creates a better bond between layers, is less likely to show stress cracking and, most importantly, leaves fewer open cavities within its molecular chain to trap and house water within the laminate.
Explore Industries uses Vinyl Ester Resin throughout the manufacturing process across our brands.
Protecting Against Osmosis
Osmosis can occur when groundwater penetrates through cheap polyester laminate, trapping water and pressure in-between the structural layers of the pool. In time, these bubbles grow through the layers of polyester resin and fiberglass, eventually compromising the structural integrity of the pool shell.
Vinyl Ester Resin Construction Keeps Groundwater Out.
Which is precisely why Explore Industries uses Vinyl Ester Resin in our construction. Doing so gives us the utmost confidence that this will not happen to your pool.
AQUAGUARD® X Color System
Exceptional chemical and UV resistance.
Years of show-stopping performance.
First introduced to the North American market over 15 years ago, AQUAGUARD®X gelcoat provides excellent UV, blister and chemical resistance. It has delivered years of outstanding satisfaction to Explore Industries customers all across the world, even holding up to the blistering heat of an Australian summer.
Radiant beauty from the inside out.
Explore Industries continues to import AQUAGUARD®X gelcoat from our partners and suppliers, Allnex, the leading global company for industrial coating resins. This superior product allows the mesmerizing surface of every Explore Industries pool to be covered by a 10 Year Gelcoat Warranty.
Certified Quality Control
Stringent control throughout every step of the manufacturing process.
Envisioning the mold.
Construction of an Explore Industries pool begins with a simple conceptual drawing. Our team of master carpenters then turn this idea into a full-size wooden pool, off which a precise negative mold is cast.
Multiplying the design.
The mold is then wheeled through various stations of our environment-controlled manufacturing facility, where a team of fiberglass laminators reference benchmarked standards and construct a composite fiberglass pool shell around it.
Hitting the mark.
Quality control measures include batch testing of raw materials for flexural and tensile strength, cure percentages, barcoal hardness, burn and boil limits, and thickness inspections in precise locations on every manufactured shell.
