VISIT US AT ATLANTIC CITY POOL & SPA SHOW

Confer Plastics will be exhibiting in their 27^th annual Atlantic City Pool and Spa Show later this month from January 29^th – 31^st. 

Featured in the largest booth we’ve ever had -- at 20' x 30' -- will be our new Curve Aboveground and Inground Step Systems, as well as our very successful Roll-Guard and Evolution ladders and spa steps . 

Stop by booth #3511 to say "hi" to Dennis, Bruce and our sales team.

INTRODUCING THE 8100 LADDER

For 8 years we've offered the 8000 swimming pool ladder, which was basically one half of an a-frame ladder that is attached to a pool step. This allows you to have a spacious step inside the pool and a safety ladder on the outside that can be flipped up and locked when not in use, inhibiting unauthorized/unsupervised entry into the pool.

The ladder is being phased out this season and replaced by our newer version -- the 8100X.

The 8100X, just like the 8000, connects to a pool step, swings up and can be locked in place. It comes with a wide platform and is manufactured in our warm grey color, complementing today's pools.

If interested in carrying this ladder in your store, contact your distributor or contact Bruce Neubauer at bruce@conferplastics.com.

THE CONFER CURVE FOR INGROUND POOLS

For 40 years Confer Plastics has manufactured ladders and steps for aboveground swimming pools. Never had we produced one for inground pools.

That is, until now...

We are excited to launch a new product for 2013, our first-ever step for inground pools...the Curve. 

The Model #CCX-IG base unit (shown in the photo above) is a basic 3-step entry system that comes in an attractive two-tone color -- warm grey panels and handrails accented by grey treads -- that compliment any pool.

The Model #CCX-IG-2 (shown below) is an add-on kit that extends the width of the base unit while giving it a more sweeping appearance, and a "wedding cake" look that many of today's homeowners desire. 

Some of the specifications of the Curve:

Weight limit: 400 pounds
Tread width (base unit): 27"
Tread depth: 10"
Riser height: 11"
Height to top tread: 36"
Handrail height (from top step): 30"
Width for complete system (base plus add-on): 58"

If interested in carrying this product in your store, contact Bruce Neubauer at bruce@conferplastics.com
