SlidePad^®

SlidePad^® was designed to replace old, unsafe landing pads.

Aquatic landing pads made of PVC pool liner remnants bonded to individual layers of foam, secured to a plastic backing plate and bolted to the pool floor is OLD TECHNOLOGY!

Drilling holes and installing bolts in the pool floor increase the probability of water leaks, surface cracks and create a safety hazard. These traditional landing pads haven’t kept pace with the ever-changing demands brought about by salt, bromine and super chlorination water chemistries. Additionally, interactive water features and innovative water slide designs require safer and softer landing surfaces

Construction

AquaticPads™ has “re-engineered” the aquatic landing pad. We have eliminated the need to drill holes and install bolts. Our SlidePad^®; is glued to the pool floor with the strongest waterproof glue on the planet! We have enhanced the safety aspects and softness of the landing surface by partnering with Life Floor^®, the #1 aquatic surface flooring in the industry. Their proprietary RIPPLE texture landing surface provides a slip-resistant surface that is NSF/ANSI/CAN 50 rated and meets critical fall height requirements. The Life Floor^® landing surface carries a 2-year warranty.

SlidePad^® is not only chlorine-resistant, but also resistant to UV exposure, impervious to water, and is fungistatic and hygienic.

SlidePad^® is available in custom sizes, manufactured to customers' specifications.

2" thick standard Life Floor^® color, Bluebird, in 3' x 4', 3' x 5', 4' x 6' and 4' x 8' ship in 4 to 6 business days.
