Qld Flood Appeal
While our factory has been unaffected by recent weather events here in Brisbane, many of our friends and customers have not been so lucky. Between flooding and Cyclone Yasi, more than 200,000 Queenslanders have been affected.
ABGAL made a substantial donation to the Premier’s Disaster Relief Appeal in January – you can make a contribution to the fund here, or phone 1800 219 028.

2010 ACASPA Award for Excellence
On May 31, ABGAL were named the overall winners of the ACASPA (Australian Canvas and Synthetic Products Association) award for excellence, for an inground pool liner they produced for a customer in WA. This stunning 3D beaded liner featured bar stools and multiple steps.
Tile Patterns for Inground Pool Liners
ABGAL now have three tile look patterns in their inground liner range. First came "Reflections", with it's stylish tile border trim, then "Mosaic Tile", with the all over mosaic tile look. We have now released our latest pattern - "Oxford". Oxford has the same blue water pattern base as Reflections, but uses a different tile trim across the top.
- Creates the illusion of luxurious ceramic tiles
- Low maintenance with the soft-to-touch benefits of vinyl

A seamless view for inground pools
In 2010, ABGAL introduced 'Smart Seam' - a new welding technique. Smartseam has all the strength of their original wedge weld, and compacts it into a seam half the size.
If you are particularly worried about seams, ABGAL will also produce your liner with the seams facing away from the viewing direction of the pool (usually looking from the home or entertainment area). Just make sure you nominate the direction of seams when you place an order. It doesn't cost any extra - its just another service we offer.
Q400
The latest Q400 list was released in October 2010, and once again we are delighted to have been listed as one of Queensland's top 400 home-grown enterprises.
To be included in the Q400 list is a major achievement and further proves that ABGAL has become a known and trusted brand over the last 34 years.
Splasher Liner Update
We have recently expanded our splasher liner range - as well as the standard 0.25mm range in Light Blue, we also carry some sizes in 0.4mm.
For a splasher liner with a difference, consider the playful Aquarium - the walls feature a tropical, underwater scene, with a dark blue floor!
