Maytronics’ Dolphin robotic pool cleaner is the world’s first Climate Care certified robotic swimming pool cleaner.The Dolphin not only removes debris from the pool; it actively scrubs the floor and walls, allowing for optimal water filtration. Known as the ‘new benchmark’ in swimming pool and spa sustainability, the Dolphin helps to reduce energy consumption by up to 83% and water consumption by around 60-80%. Dan Kwaczynski (Managing Director), Chris Papageorgiou (Co-Founder), and David Dean (Marketing Manager), share their insight into Maytronics Australia. Dan begins, “Our industry has experienced tremendous growth over the last decade. To give you some perspective, our offering was less than 1% market share when we set up Maytronics Australia in 2010. Today, robotic pool cleaners hold 40%+ of the current national market share. So, technology has really turned the market- and that was our dream and our ambition from the very beginning.We wanted to showAustralia pool owners that they could embrace a change from traditional cleaning methods to robotic, which was much more advanced and offered a better swimming experience. 41 BUSINESS VIEW CARIBBEAN VOLUME 06, ISSUE 03 MAYTRONICS AUSTRAL IA
