Tokyo 2020, Olympic Games
July-August 2021.
Tokyo was the 5th Olympic Games for Myrtha Pools. A success, despite the difficulties caused by the pandemic. In Tokyo, Myrtha Pools was present with three pools designed specifically for swimming (50m), water polo (35m) and artistic swimming (30m).
The three warm-up pools were installed in Tokyo in record time even amidst the Covid pandemic. Thanks to the flexibility and versatility of Myrtha’s modular stainless steel panel system, the pools were dismantled and to be reinstalled in Fukuoka to host the XIX FINA World Aquatics Championships in May 2022.
Myrtha Pools continues to make history for major aquatic events, with a technology that reduces CO2 emissions compared to swimming pools built in concrete or in welded steel.
After the Fukuoka event, these pools will again be disassembled and reassembled in their final homes at permanent swimming centres across Japan, a model aimed at reducing the waste of natural and economic resources. A clear change of course compared to the great sporting events of the past that will bring these swimming pools to find a home in various sports centres and schools. The uniqueness of the self-supporting structure of Myrtha Pools, guarantees a long-life cycle, reduced maintenance costs and anti-seismic properties. A technology that is sustainable for the environment and created to withstand even earthquakes.
