AstralPool installs the pools for the 2008 World Swimming Championships in Manchester
AstralPool has once more been responsible for installing the main pools for the 9th FINA World 25 m Swimming Championships, held in Manchester (England) from 9 to 13 April 2008. The International Swimming Federation has once again trusted in AstralPool as a sponsor and official partner, after the success of the Melbourne World Championships last March.
The Spanish multi-national company was responsible for converting the Manchester Evening News (MEN) Arena, which is the most popular concert venue in the world, into the ideal setting for the World Swimming Championships.
AstralPool installed two temporary Skypools which contained two million litres of water: the 25x25x2 metre competition pool and the 25x15x2 metre warm-up pool.
