Hot tub, sauna, swim spa and cold plunge from a single source: Watkins Wellness, the world’s largest hot tub manufacturer, brings Hot Spring, Caldera Spas, Endless Pools, Tylö and Helo together under one roof.
The story of Watkins Wellness begins in California in 1977. Brothers Jeff and Jon Watkins built their first Hot Spring Spa® – the first fully insulated hot tub with underwater lighting and top-access filters. Milestones followed, such as Moto-Massage®, the world’s first moving hydrotherapy jet, and the FreshWater Salt System® for clean, natural-feeling water without much maintenance. Today Watkins is the largest hot tub manufacturer in the world: more than two million spas stand in gardens around the globe, produced on more than 90,000 square metres of manufacturing space.
Whether hot tub, sauna, swim spa or cold plunge: wellness works best when it becomes part of everyday life. That is exactly what we develop our products for – and have been doing for almost 50 years.

Innovation as the driving force
Innovation remains the driving force to this day. The latest example is FreshWater IQ, the company’s most advanced water care system to date. It combines three technologies – the patented salt system, a sensor for real-time monitoring and a new precision dosing system – and keeps the water clean and balanced around the clock.
Hot Spring and Caldera Spas
Hot Spring is the founding brand and has been regarded for decades as the world’s best-selling spa brand. The focus is on high-quality massage, worry-free water care, energy efficiency and first-class customer service.
Caldera® Spas covers every segment with clearly positioned series – from entry-level model to flagship. Each series combines thoughtful design, proven technology and comfort, tailored to lifestyle, available space and personal wellness goals.
Endless Pools
Since 1988, Endless Pools® has been fulfilling the dream of a pool of their own for swimmers, athletes and active families. Swim spas and modular pools with counter-current systems offer space for swimming, fitness and fun on a compact footprint – easy to maintain and flexible to install.
Tylö and Helo: the world of sauna
With Tylö and Helo, Watkins Wellness has also opened up the world of sauna. For 75 years, Tylö has combined Scandinavian heritage with forward-looking design and craftsmanship. Helo translates the Finnish sauna tradition into a clear, modern design language – with sauna cabins that put comfort, simplicity and calm at the centre. Complemented by cold plunges, the portfolio thus covers the entire cycle of heat, movement and cold.
Global from the start
Watkins Wellness is represented by specialist dealers in more than 70 countries and relies on local support. This includes multilingual sales and technical teams, localised marketing materials and training, as well as distribution centres in Belgium and the United Kingdom. Dealers receive targeted support in conveying to their customers the benefits of regular spa, sauna, swim spa and cold plunge use – because more than ever, people are looking for ways to relax, switch off and live healthier lives.
Backing comes from its membership of Masco: the Fortune 500 group, with a 95-year history, stands behind Watkins Wellness and its brands – a source of security for employees, dealers and customers alike.
