This will allow us to serve the customers of both companies even better. BlowUps has an excellent reputation and I am confident that the company will be an important addition to Aqua Drolics.” Roel Rasker, Co-Founder of BlowUps, adds, “We are active in different markets, but we are a strong combination of long-standing knowledge and expertise in production technology. The mission to create beautiful things remains. […]”
Recent projects Aqua Drolics has worked on include a Western-themed spray park for Glampingresort Hoge Kempen (near Hasselt, Belgium) as well as a children’s pool with a water play structure in jungle style for Holiday Park Beekse Bergen (near Tilburg, Netherlands). The new attractions are expected to delight guests at the two holiday destinations starting this summer. (eap)
