As part of the company's continued growth in the Australian pool and spa market, International Quadratics (IQ) has acquired South Australian distributor Pool Resources.

"The owners of Pool Resources SA, Rod and Jeff decided it was time to put their feet up and take a well-deserved rest and retirement," says IQ managing director David Lloyd.

"Fortunately, we have been given the opportunity to continue their legacy so the ongoing supply of chemicals and equipment is guaranteed.”

Lloyd says it was simple progression for the two companies as for the past 12 months Pool Resources had been distributing the IQ range of swimming pool chemicals and equipment in South Australia and the Northern Territory.

"As far as we're concerned, it's business as usual with the added bonus of some additional product and service offerings available to SA and NT customers,” he says.

Jeff Wilson from Pool Resources says they have had many wonderful and rewarding years’ operating the family business, but they had to finally make the very difficult choice to head down the retirement path.

“International Quadratics is a well-established and highly respected family business that has been involved in the water care industry for many years," he says. "We are confident that under IQ’s management, Pool Resources (SA) will continue to trade as a successful and competitive local business.”

From the 19th September 2016 International Quadratics will be trading as Pool Resources SA in South Australia and the Northern Territory.

Since 1976, the family owned company International Quadratics has been a leading supplier of quality pool and spa products and services.

The company has grown to have national representation and now operates in three divisions:

• Swimming Pool and Spa Chemicals: manufacturing and supply of a full range of quality chemicals.

• Commercial Equipment: offering more than 5000 different product lines for the commercial pool sector, catering for inside the pool and plant room as well as around the pool deck.

• Theralux: a mineral pool bathing system for the residential pool market offering quality and environment-friendly equipment.
