Spa membership sales double at refurbished China Fleet spa in Plymouth

Anapos Thermal Spa Equipment’s refurbishment of the China Fleet Country Club Spa in Plymouth has seen membership sales double within the first year of its re-opening in December of 2013.

UK-based thermal zone supplier Anapos chose to repeat its installation of HygroMatik-branded steam generators in the refurbishment.

The entire spa building was stripped back to its original blockwork, getting rid of the former sauna, steamroom, spa pool and basic showers. The new spa now features an aroma steamroom, salt steamroom, finnish sauna, experience showers, ice fountain, foot spas, three heated tiled loungers, a tiled laconium and a deck level spa pool. Updated steam generators by HygroMatik have replaced the older versions.

Anapos and China Fleet worked closely for 24 months on the spa refurbishment contract, that amounted to almost £250,000.

“By providing reliable, easy to maintain and precise steam generators, HygroMatik has helped China Fleet Club’s spa facilities improve and attract more members,” national sales manager for HygroMatik, Andie Chessun, told Spa Opportunities. “This refurbishment by Anapos has increased the Club’s luxury relaxation offering and proves that our customers are loyal as they have chosen to reinstall our products.”
