Natural Swimming Pools & Biopools
Eco-friendly, chemical-free water. Engineered for clarity, health and longevity. Operating at up to 90% less electricity than traditional pools.
A soothing, natural swimming experience
Swimming in fresh, living water
without chemicals
Natural swimming pools and biopools offer the feeling of swimming in fresh, living water — without chlorine, harsh odors, red eyes or dry skin. Clarity is achieved through biological filtration, balanced water ecology and gentle, continuous circulation.
Type 1
Plant-Based Natural Pools (NSPs)
These systems use a regeneration zone — usually 20–40% of the total area — filled with aquatic plants and layered stone media. They offer a lush, natural aesthetic, habitat creation and ecological balance, warm soft-feeling water and full biological filtration without chemicals.
Perfect for rural, garden and naturalistic environments — or for clients who want a swimming experience that feels like entering a freshwater spring.
- Lush natural aesthetic
- Full biological filtration — zero chemicals
- Habitat creation and ecological balance
- Warm, soft-feeling water
Type 2
Plant-Free BioPools
A more modern, architectural style of natural pool that keeps the water 100% plant-free. Instead of a regeneration zone, these pools use hydrolysis, phosphate removal, advanced circulation and optional micro-dose sanitation (far below chlorine pool levels).
Ideal for clients who want a clean, minimalist pool with the comfort of natural water — but without added landscaping or wetlands.
- Clean, minimalist architectural aesthetic
- No wetland or planting zone required
- Works on tighter sites and urban settings
- Ideal for hot climates
