The introduction, several years ago, of rotationally molded spas added a new dimension to our industry.  These spas are inexpensive, durable, simple and they allowed the most frugal of people the opportunity to own one.  South Pacific Spas not only recognized the demand for this type of product, but they also recognized the need to improve in quality and to offer more features.  The South Pacific line of Spas is the result.  These consumers freindly, dealer friendly spas stand in a class of their own.  They will not only virtually last a lifetime, but they affordable enough so everyone can own one.

The use of polyethylene to manufacture spas has many advantages.  They include:

• Polyethylene is a crystalline structure.  Crystalline chains called "polymers" hold it together and allow it to readily take and retain various shapes.  It does not chip or break easily and accidental scratches can be easily repaired.  Unlike acrylic, polyethylene is extremely strong and does not require a fiberglass support backing.

• Polyethylene is an inert material.  It can't be dissolved and it won't react with chemicals such as those used to sanitize hot water.  It is one of only a few plastics to be approved by the FDA to be safe around food.

• Polyethylene is completely waterproof.  It will not get "water logged" over time.  That's why its used for bottling, safety buoys, kayaks and other boats.

• Polyethylene is well known for its ability to deaden sound.  It is used to make sound baffles for symphony halls.  This characteristic helps to provide a quieter running spa.

• Polyethylene is recognized as a heat insulator.  It provides added protection to a spa for more cost effective operation.

• Polyethylene is light weight.  Unlike traditional acrylic spas which can weigh up to 1,000 lbs, polyethylene spas weigh considerably less. They are easy to deliver, move and relocate.
