WAVES logoWelcome to India’s First Annual Pool, Spa, and Sauna Expo & Conference!

WAVES Magazine and Exhibitions India Group welcome you to the inaugural annual WAVES – Pool, Spa, Bath International Expo & Conference 2011, India’s only Pool, Spa and Wellness Expo & Conference.  


In 2010, India’s economy grew by over 9% - making it the fastest growing democratic economy in the world!  Though a relatively new industry, the pool and spa market in India has huge potential.  Interest in portable spas, swimming pools, and saunas has been steadily growing over the past decade.  The explosive growth of the middle class (now equal to the entire population of the
swimming-pool United States, 300 million people) has further fuelled the demand for wet leisure luxuries, with more and more Indians wanting their own private getaway.  A place to relax and de-stress from busy and hectic lifestyles has resulted in increased demand for private swimming pools, portable spas, and commercial spa & wellness centres.  This growth has developed a serious industry with creative opportunities for architects, builders, and landscapers as well.

Looking at the potential of this flourishing industry, the WAVES International Expo & Conference comes at a perfect time, indeed.  Prem Bhel, Chairman of Exhibitions India Group, the country’s leading event organization company who has been in existence since 1987 and is ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004 certified, explains that the reason behind the event was to create a platform for key decision-makers in the industry to connect to global manufacturers and in the process learn and expand their businesses.
