As with all our pools, it is adaptable and flexible. This is a stand-alone pool to sit in the middle of the room so midwives have fullest possible access . Yet, it can be adapted to fit against the wall IPS panel for ease of plumbing and installation (and still leave plenty of access for midwives!

This pool has a soft matt finish so that it has a softer look and a low-slip surface with ‘cleanability’. It is possible to have the outer and inner in different colours.

It has all the features of an Aquabirths birthing pool – single cleanable surface for enhanced hygiene control, strengthened sides to spread the load, discrete plumbing and easy to install. Good news for plumbers, midwives and Infection Control Officers!
