Poolpod 3.0 Released
Cotenda International has joined with Poolpod Products UK to launch the latest ground breaking Pool lift: Poolpod 3.0.
When the London 2012 Olympic Delivery Authority struggled to find a pool hoist (a device used to assist disabled people to enter and exit a swimming pool) that satisfied their high standards for functionality and accessibility, they launched an international competition to find the right design.
The innovative 'Poolpod' won that competition and now over 500 of the Poolpod model 2.0 have been installed.
Cotenda international has taken the original poolpod concept and developed it further launching the latest model:
Poolpod 3.0
Its easier for every one at every level - from installation to operation.
Poolpod 3.0 now sits within of a range of innovative wellness technologies that Cotenda are launching in 2024-25.
If you want to improve your activity level and health, or those of your community then you share our mission.
With new features and updated design this is our latest pool platform lift, more versatile than ever before: home users can be confident in this solution to work if their abilities change; commercial users are catering for widest range of users and scenarios.
With this award winning inclusive design, swimming pools can attract swimmers with mobility impairments, their families and friends. Poolpod 2.0 has proved its credentials, winning awards and more than 500 units installed. While not as feature rich as Poolpod 3.0, its smaller, less expensive and provides great access to deck level pools.
This wheelchair maybe be self propelled or pushed by a care giver, its perfect for independently movement around a poolside including using a Poolpod platform lift, showering & changing.

'Universal Design'
We make sure our products cater for the needs of all user profiles, an approach commonly called Universal Design.
Wellness via an Active Life
Our products enable and promote an active life. We focus on the needs and barriers that affect people who are currently least active.
Aquatic Environments
Because being weightless in the swimming pool is particularly beneficial to anyone with mobility difficulties, its a key focus for us.
Vision: Community Leisure of the future
Universal swimming system
Our mission is technology that enables people be more active.
Like many sports community leaders around the world our focus is creating pathways to exercise for people who are least active, not only for reasons of equity and legislation but also because the strategy can create the greatest net savings to the UK health and social care budget.
Our Universal Design approach includes children who don't meet activity goals, older people who maybe excluded by frailty and people with injuries or disabilities and many others.
Our suite of new visionary products will be with the customer for every part of their journey, getting changed, getting in the water and in water activities as well as in the spa & sauna therapy areas.
