Guncast create beautiful bespoke pools for lap swimming

Lap pools are like normal swimming pools but have unique dimensions. While standard pools are wide and balanced, lap pools are long, narrow and rectangular.

Guncast tailor design to available space and individual needs.

A pool with generous dimensions – 10 by 75 feet, for example – is perfect for endurance training and has ample room for two to three bathers. Equally, a lap pool with modest dimensions can satisfy requirements for exercise where means and space are restricted.

The VITALITY BOOST unfolds the full potential of a

The VITALITY BOOST unfolds the full potential of a sauna heater and gives the sauna bathers' cardiovascular and immune system an intensive workout.

KLAFS combines technical innovation with maximum comfort to create a perfect sauna experience. The VITALITY BOOST - an automatic infusion with targeted air circulation - has been developed by KLAFS together with experts and infusion masters and forms the centrepiece of the innovative KLAFS concept on the heat side.

The multifunctional system enables an increased sensation of warmth and therefore more intensive training of the heart, blood circulation and immune system. The automatic infusion system and the ceiling-mounted air jets ensure that the heat and humidity generated by the infusion are distributed quickly and evenly throughout the cabin.

Guests at hotels, leisure pools, fitness centres and other commercial spa facilities can enjoy a perfect infusion experience at any time with the VITALITY BOOST, which is comparable to the ceremonies performed by master infusion therapists and is the perfect addition to commercial wellness areas.

Beautiful Indoor Pool with Luxury Health Suite Facilities

Guncast were briefed to create an elegant indoor pool and spa alongside full health suite facilities

The result was this luxury pool and spa which the Guncast team delivered to the highest quality. This stunning pool measures 18 x 6 metres with an extended shallow end to allow for leisure activities such as volleyball or water polo.

The pool is fitted with neck massagers for ultimate luxury and the spa is equipped with high capacity hydro jets and allows for comfortable seating of 5 to 7 people. For a truly opulent spa experience, RGB lighting allows for colour changes and mood setting within the water.

The steam room is finished with a mosaic and tadelakt tile which is beautifully complemented by the starry sky ceiling lighting. Along the sauna wall is a full-length air lounger for added relaxation, and the sauna is finished in Kelo wood with concealed bench lighting. The pool and spa have premium finishing touches, such as heated loungers, making this the perfect space to unwind.

Two spectacular projects completed by the Guncast team.

It’s hard to watch this video footage without wanting to dive into clear, cooling water! The crisp, clean lines synonymous with a Guncast swimming pool give these projects their sleek, modern finish, whilst underneath the water, you'll find state-of-the-art technology and meticulous craftsmanship that ensures every swim is a luxurious experience.

Both swimming pools benefit from adjacent hydro spa pools, whilst the finishing details such as large format tiles or a clear glass infinity edge demonstrates Guncast's commitment to combining luxury, beauty and functionality in their designs.

#8 in the thermal journey – From individual ice fountains to the refreshing experience of the ICE LOUNGE, it's possible to experience ice-cold refreshment, all year round.

Cooling off in 0°C offers a number of health benefits, including the reduction of swelling and inflammation, speeds up recovery, prevents muscle soreness, improves circulation and enhances joint function. It can also alleviate certain types of pain. Precautions however do need to be taken. It is recommended that you limit your time when exposed to freezing temperatures and continually monitor your skins condition. If in any doubt consult a healthcare professional.

An ice lounge offers an unforgettable cooling experience. It is a multisensory room that cools down the airways and the skin. This exciting stage of the thermal journey can be further enhanced with additional sensory stimulants such as relaxing fragrances, ATMOSPHERE® multimedia vision, and stunning ice fountains. The crisp, clean environment of a KLAFS ice lounge from Guncast is created with specially developed acrylic ice, which is clear, colourless and has no impurities. Perfect for relaxing and cooling off.
