ABS Plastic Lockers—The New Favorite

The inherent pain point of swimming pool industry—lockers in swimming baths are always easy to go mouldy, smelly and rusty, which has a great impact on the high-end swimming pool, such as poor customer experiences, frequent cleaning, and the high maintenance cost.

There is no shortage of lockers that are anti-rust and won't go mouldy in the market (e.g. plastic lockers). To a great extent, the above-mentioned problems occur in the swimming pool locker, because people in the industry turn a blind eye to new lockers and are unwilling to accept them, and still choose traditional ones according to a fixed mindset they hold, that is, choose products with low costs.

Plastic Lockers

The traditional swimming pool locker is usually made of metal and wood. As far as metal is concerned, stainless steel lockers are expensive and generally used in archives instead of natatoriums. Metal lockers are used for most indoor pools. Those lockers are very thin and easily deformed due to external forces, causing flaking paint and rust of the lockers. And the inherent chemical properties of the metal locker determine that it will not be durable in wet swimming pools.

The attributes of wood lockers are basically the same as those of metal lockers. More seriously, once the wood locker is peeling, it is easy to absorb moisture, and deform, and then become moldy, leading to bacterial growth and producing smell. When the wood locker is first put into use, it is very luxurious and has good luster. However, with the passage of time, even if the paint on the surface doesn't come away, the surface layer will oxidize, making the color dull and giving people a feeling of depression.

In contrast, the plastic locker does not contain those inherent weaknesses. The raw material of the plastic locker is acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), which does not rust or go mouldy. The locker is colorful, and will not fade. After long-term use, the ABS plastic locker is still as bright as a new one after being wiped with water. Moreover, the plastic locker has strong impact resistance and won't be easily scratched. It is applicable to the public places, and can create good customer experiences throughout the summer.

To sum up, it can be seen that the pain points of swimming pool industries are not inevitable. It is very important to choose the right material. The plastic locker, as a new-type locker, can be the best seller in the swimming pool industry in the future because of its stainless, non-toxic and tasteless characteristics.
