The first principle of Compass Pools was, and still is, to build the best swimming pools. The development of Compass products was not by accident. It happened because in the beginning, owner, Ian Mewett, was not an accountant, advertising man or sales executive. He was a fibreglass tradesman with a do it better than anyone else attitude. For better or for worse Compass Pools was always going to be driven by the quality of the pools they produced and fortunately time has shown that this has proven to be an enduring asset. It is the vision to do it better that has produced the Ceramic Composite technology, the Bi-Luminate surfaces and of course the Vantage Pool.
