Since 1988, Aquavia Spa has evolved alongside the wellness industry to become one of Europe’s leading manufacturers specialising in spas and swimspas. What began with the import of spa shells eventually evolved into in-house manufacturing and, in 2004, the launch of the Aquavia Spa brand. Today, the company has a presence in more than 40 countries.
Its offering brings together European manufacturing, design, technology and innovation to create wellness solutions for both residential and professional settings. With a 10,000 m² manufacturing facility in Cervera, Spain, the company produces more than 2,000 spas and swimspas every year.
Spas and Swimspas Designed to Make the Most of Water
Aquavia Spa develops solutions for different ways of enjoying water. Its spas are primarily designed for relaxation and hydrotherapy, while its swimspas combine the benefits of a spa with dedicated space for counter-current swimming and aquatic exercise.
This range makes it possible to adapt each system to homes, hotels, wellness centres and other professional environments, with configurations designed to meet different needs and patterns of use. The company also places a strong emphasis on customisation, allowing each installation to suit both the user’s preferences and the characteristics of the available space.
Design You Can Feel
When it comes to a spa, design goes far beyond its exterior appearance. The layout of the seats, the ergonomics of each position, and the placement of jets and injectors all have a direct impact on the hydrotherapy experience.
Aquavia Spa views design as a combination of aesthetics, engineering and wellbeing. That is why its product development focuses not only on what users see, but also on what they experience while in the water: comfort, body positioning, massage and ease of use.
Technology for Better Water Care
A spa’s wellbeing experience also depends on water quality. Filtration, circulation, temperature control and water treatment all need to work together effectively to maintain optimal conditions and make ongoing maintenance easier.
Aquavia Spa’s commitment to innovation extends to these technical aspects, with a focus on reliable and efficient systems. Its investment in R&D&I is aimed not only at enhancing the user experience, but also at optimising system performance and moving towards more efficient use of water and the resources required to maintain it.
Energy Efficiency: A Key Challenge for the Industry
Spas require energy to heat the water and keep it at the desired temperature, as well as to power filtration, circulation and hydrotherapy systems. As a result, energy efficiency has become an increasingly important consideration in the development of these products.
Aquavia Spa has made efficiency one of its key areas of innovation, alongside material quality and component reliability. The goal is to maintain the performance users expect while making more responsible use of resources—something that is particularly important in installations designed for frequent use.
In-House Manufacturing and Quality Control
One of Aquavia Spa’s defining characteristics is the level of control it maintains over the production process: it conceptualises, designs, manufactures, tests and markets its own products. This integrated approach gives the company a comprehensive view of the materials, components, finishes and performance of every spa.
The company also applies LEAN manufacturing principles to optimise production while combining industrial-scale manufacturing with flexibility. Following the fire that affected its factory in 2019, the Cervera facility was rebuilt using advanced technology, automation and sustainable industrial practices.
Innovation Designed Around People
For Aquavia Spa, innovation is about more than simply adding new features. It starts with the experience of the person using the product. Ergonomics, hydrotherapy, efficiency, materials and ease of use all contribute to the same goal: ensuring that technology genuinely enhances wellbeing.
This approach also underpins the company’s commitment to customisation. Aquavia Spa aims to make each spa adaptable to the customer’s individual needs, viewing exclusivity not simply as an aesthetic concept, but as the ability to create a product tailored to each user.
More Than 35 Years of Looking to the Future
Aquavia Spa’s journey reflects much of the transformation the industry has undergone: from the early days of imported spas to increasingly efficient, customisable wellness systems developed and manufactured using proprietary technology and designed around smarter water management.
With more than 35 years of experience and an international presence, the company is now focused on continuing to bring together design, hydrotherapy, water treatment, efficiency and technology. An ongoing evolution towards a new generation of spas where wellbeing and intelligent resource management increasingly go hand in hand.
