Discover the Conquest difference

We've been experts in fibreglass manufacturing for over 50 years. Read below to find information on the quality of our pools.

Quality of Raw Materials

The materials we select are selected without compromise. Polycor® gelcoats are marine grade isophthalic/NPG chemistry, our vinyl ester resin is pure Bisphenol-A vinyl ester, our structural laminate resin is exactly that – purposely formulated structural resin and our sealing cream coat is applied thick and generous.

Courtesy of our own high standards, Conquest exceed the stringent requirements of the Australian Standard. AS1838:1994: Swimming Pools – Premoulded fibre-reinforced plastics design and fabrication.

What Does This Mean?

An engineering examination of both these laminates indicates  that both laminates are suitable for in-ground swimming pools with  correct installation.

However, clearly any statement that  suggests the “ceramic” laminate is stronger is incorrect.  Even though  the ceramic laminate is 2.0mm thicker, the properties of the standard  FRP laminate exceed the ceramic laminate in all test areas.

19.7%

Better Mean Average Load

The FRP laminate showed that the mean average load for the test was 19.7% higher than a competitor's ceramic laminate.

53.8%

Better Tensile Strength

The tensile result of the FRP laminate was 53.8% higher than a competitor's ceramic laminate.

19.8%

Better Stiffness

The FRP laminate has 19.8% higher result in stiffness than a competitor's ceramic laminate, this is the impact factor.

26.5%

Better Flexural Property

Flexural – this property in the FRP laminate is 26.5% higher than the ceramic laminate.

  1. Both laminates are suitable for in ground FRP pools with correct installation and backfilling.
  2. Standard Deviation – all are within variance of 10% meaning  that the tests on all laminate samples were correctly conducted and  there was no individual sample that unfairly influenced the result.
  3. Laminate Test Results conducted independently by the University of South Queensland

No Stacked Transport

We’re the only pool manufacturer in Victoria to only transport one pool at a time on the truck. This prevents micro-cracks from forming in the fibreglass and also allows us to pre-plumb the pools before we place them into the ground.

The advantages to this method
  • Durable plumbing due to the plumbing being fibreglassed to the pool itself
  • Prevention of micro-cracks due to transport

Pre-Plumbed

Our transport method allows us to fix the plumbing to the pool before transport.

Couldn't be happier with our pool and the service we have received by Aimee and the boys at conquest pools.

The Pool was scheduled to commence by a given date and they commenced the installation process right on time and continued without fail until the pool was completed.

Equipment pricing is very reasonable and often less that RRP. I bought my pool here 7 years ago. Every day it looks great and makes me glad I didn't buy elsewhere.

Dimity, Peter, Sam and your whole operations team have made this big decision a great one. It was obvious that we were in the hands of a very professional outfit.

Great customer service. Very helpful. And quick! I was swimming within a month of ordering at the start of summer.
