Australia’s best: the 2018 national award winners
T
he Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre was home to the sold out National Awards of Excellence Gala hosted by SPASA Australia on the Thursday of SPLASH! SPASA chairman Rob Kruber extolled the amazing community that is the pool and spa industry. “It’s big enough to impact almost everyone’s life yet small enough that any single one of us can make a difference,” he said. “We have another record-breaking event with more entries and attendance than ever before. The work that our members are doing is world class. The products we build are inspirational and desirable, they create family memories, provide a place for recreation and relaxation and enhance our lives.” As well as the national award presentation, the evening included the ALFA Queensland awards and the launch of the SPASA’s Climate Care Certified Program in conjunction with Smart Approved WaterMark. There is more on the ALFA Queensland awards on page 76.
